Ok, I'm in the 'angry and hating on' phase a little!

Any suggestions for a playlist?

I'm a pop person so I can't think of any off hand.

No Kirsty McColl so far? Maybe I’m showing my age.

“England 2 Columbia 0” anyone?

“It is not in my nature to ever pick the winning team
Sometimes I think I'm happy then I remember it's a dream
Now it isn't in my nature to ever pick a winner
I always pick a bastard who would have me for his dinner

I can never possess the object of my desire
Cause he's bound to turn out to be a serial liar
OK I didn't mention my kids, I thought I'd wait a bit
But I am free and single and he's a lying git ....”

Or “There’s a guy works down the chip shop swears he’s Elvis”, when you’re nearly ready to smile again

Viola Wills - gonna get along without you now.

And Demi Lovato - hate you to love me. Also Whitney Houston - it's not right (but it's ok)

Funny thing is, with that Whitney Houston song if I say the first part of the title I hear Roy Walker. May have had a glass or two of vino

Bad Together by Rozzi

Not quite spot on, but a breakup song, great singer.

bumpertobumper · 06/03/2020 00:36

Why'd ya do it by Marianne faithfull

It's such an angry song - brilliant

ContessaferJones · 06/03/2020 00:38

I hate you - Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes

The Alanis one Wink

@Doyoumindifislytherin I usually only like pop, but I really enjoyed that. Grin Add your memes if you like, sisters. Maybe anonymize them a bit so they can't take offence. Grin

florababy84 · 06/03/2020 02:32

Ben Folds Five Song for the Dumped is nice and shouty, though unfortunately it's a man singing to a woman so maybe not what you're looking for.

Ritascornershop · 06/03/2020 02:35

Oh, Mother by Martha Wainwright is the best I’m really angry with the ex song ever.

Ritascornershop · 06/03/2020 02:39

And yes, Marianne’s Why’d you do it.

NoMoreDickheads · 13/03/2020 00:14

A friend recommended this one which I really like- 'You're no good.'

IDK if we've had these Taylor Swift ones

'Should've said No' ( I should've said no Grin)

'Picture to Burn'

I also found some Avril Lavigne,

'I Can Do Better.'

'Alone.'

Liz Phair 'And He Slayed Her' (IDK why it's called that.)

Also everything on Joe Jackson's first two album. Now, there was an angry young man...

ErrmWTAF · 13/03/2020 00:26

There's a Billie Holiday song called "Baby I Don't Cry Over You" - worth looking up!

And you can't forget You're Breaking My Heart by Harry Nilsson.

Martha Wainwright- Bloody Mother Fucking Asshole

Faiths Song by Amy Wadge: V V loud:

Gave you all that you needed
You cut but I'm bleeding
And all of my strength that I gave to you
I loved completely
You lose then you leave me
And all of my hope
I left with you too
But I gave my heart whole I did
I gave my heart
And although it's lost
It is still beating
And I gave my whole soul I did
I gave my soul
And although I'm broken
I am still breathing
I will sleep through the moments
All the moments you've stolen
All for my love
I'll learn the truth
That I gave my heart whole I did
I gave my heart
And although it's lost
It is still beating
And I gave my whole soul I did
I gave my soul
And although I'm broken
I am still breathing
