Having a bad breakup? We've all been there! Here's a collection of fabulous breakup songs that you can use as your angry or sad soundtrack right now.

What's the best therapy a nasty breakup? A date with Jack Daniels? No, that's a bad idea. A date with Ben and Jerry? A slightly better idea, but still a bit on the self-destructive side. Instead, drown your sorrows with that age-old, alcohol and calorie free remedy-- the breakup song. Make yourself a mix CD or an iPod mix and blare the heck out of it in your car or on the treadmill.

Breakup songs are not hard to find. When you think about it, there's probably more of them out there than romantic love songs for weddings and such. Here's an eclectic list of breakup songs for you to choose from to suit your mood.

Angry Breakup Songs. We all have those moments when we blare angry music at full volume on our stereo in an attempt to release those toxic feelings. Here are some awesome angry breakup songs:

Sad Love Songs. Sometimes you just want to cry and feel sorry for yourself after a breakup. That's probably not a good long term habit, but we've all been there, and a pity party now and then never hurt anyone. Here's some fabulously sad and pathetic breakup songs when you just want to feel down for awhile:

Empowering Songs. These are the inspirational songs you play yourself when the initial pain has subsided and you're trying to make sense of things. The message of these songs is, "You hurt me, but ha! I'm strong and I don't need you." Here's some great empowering breakup songs:

Hey Josh! Guess what? You did exactly what you swore you wouldn't at the beginning a year and few months ago. And with you, you took all that was left of me.

Thats not going to be the end of me, though. I'll regrow, and this time I'm not going to be stupid enough to believe that there is decency in people like you.

Josh boyfriend of 8 months- recently broke up with me. he'd relaised his feelings for me had changed, he viewed me more as a friend, but still told me he loved me up until the day before he broke up with me! As well as still sleeping with me.
He even tried to love me but culdn't, this obviously makes me feel like the most special, beautiful girl in the world....
I even want to hate you but it's not working. Its the worst when u still love the person who killed you inside.

I started loving one girl (first time in my life), I told her that I love her and want to marry her. I told her take time and reply, even if she says me No, I'll never ask. Its almost 4 months, I'm still waiting. I don't have guts to go and speak with her on face. I feel that she is fully confused, she is not even ready to speak with me on that topic. However she can discuss it with her friends. I'm still waiting, I'm speaking with her via emails. However she told me that she is still thinking.. What should I do?
