Razzmatazz by Pulp.

It’s bloody catch though.

What’s worse?

" So be Damned" by Laurence Fox

Also, " Wind beneath my Wings" Bette Midler, isn't this the most condescending song ever? " It must have been cold there. . .in my shadow . .never feel sunlight on your face. . .you always walked a step behind . . . " Cringe !!

I like Queen's "Death on two legs", but I think that was aimed at a former manager, not ex partner.

Say Hello and Wave Goodbye, Marc Almond. - ' You're used to wearing less and now your life's a mess'

millenialblush · 29/03/2021 21:34

Say hello, wave goodbye (Mark Almond does it much cattier that David Grey)

millenialblush · 29/03/2021 21:35

@Abhannmor SNAP!!

Fuck you - Lily Allen!
Possibly one of my favourite songs ever.

You Oughta Know was my first choice.

One that may sound out of left field but if you listen to it is rather harsh is Gordon Lightfoot’s If You Could Read My Mind:

“If I could read your mind love,
What a tale your thoughts would tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind the drugstores sell”

It’s self-aware in that he knows he’s caused a lot of the hurt and heartache in the relationship but just can’t resist that cruelty. It has such a gentle sound for such meanness.

@LudoBear

Confused

Why’d you admit that?

Sweet Revenge - Motörhead
I'll Get Even - Megadeth

Two more from my angry running playlist 😄

@enjoyingscience

Caught out there by Kelis. It’s definitely vitriolic. (I hate you so much right now, aaaaaaaarrrreegggggghhhhhh)

Came on to say this...

Dugee · 29/03/2021 21:58

Survivor by Destiny's Child

My angry running list is varied.

I'm going through these suggestions and adding more on. Thanks everyone!

@AliasGrape

Better do better by Hard Fi

'Your face makes me want to be sick, ah yeah it's a physical reaction'.

Used to do a lot of angry pounding the streets with that blasting in my headphones after one particularly nasty breakup Grin

Yep. The best 'fuck you' song ever.

Scary Bitches - piss all over your grave

Wonderfully rewarding to shout along to 😂 and far too catchy

Dugee · 29/03/2021 22:19

Babyshambles - Fuck Forever

ScottChegg · 29/03/2021 22:21

When my ex pissed me off I would listen to Bad Things by Wednesday 13 a couple of times and then I felt better.

Notimeforaname · 29/03/2021 22:22

Scary Bitches - piss all over your grave how have I never heard this?...sounds like my cup of tea 🤣🤣

DontSpoilLODForMe · 29/03/2021 22:23

The song for Phil Daoust by Tim Minchin is quite harsh

lockdownalli · 29/03/2021 22:23

I agree with Like A Rolling Stone

Also. I Can't Decide Whether You Should Live or Die by Scissor Sisters is an ace revenge song Grin

ADragonCalledKeith · 29/03/2021 22:32

I listened to numb and in the end by linkin park a lot when my ex and I split.

Always Yes by M&B, that song has seen me through a few break ups!

But for vitriol, it had to be The one I love, REM. "A simple prop, to occupy my time".
