here have one of mine 
This got me through a rough patch last year …classic country broken heart song
Randy Houser - Anything Goes…Randy Houser - Anything Goes (Closed Captioned) - YouTube
hugs I got nothin’, hon, just sympathy. I’ve been there.
Crowds– Bauhaus
Positively 4th Street– Bob Dylan
Check out the entire album “Midnight Organ Fight” by a band called Frightened Rabbit. Scottish indie band with clever, sharp lyrics that combine pain and anger with (some) positive vibes. Enough of a breakup album though, that I heard it in the first week of a new fling, and got so gloomy about relationships that I broke it off 
“Don’t Forget Me” - Neko Case (cover of Harry Nilsson original)
When my gf broke up with me, I found these a great help:
Everything But the Girl - The Road
Heather Nova - Let’s Not Talk About Love - Sorry for the pretty crap youtube video. It was the only one I could find.
Jane Siberry - Love is Everything
Fairground Attraction - Moon On the Rain
Ryan Adams’ cover of Wonderwall
Indigo Girls’ cover of Bob Dylan’s Tangled Up in Blue.
All the best to you, Ruby.
This is your perfect song right here: Don’t Go Away Mad (Just Go Away)
This. It’s what I came into the thread to recommend.
And now I’m glad I didn’t know
The way it all would end; the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain, but I’d have had to miss the dance
Harry Nillson "You’re Breaking My Heart"
Do I win?
So it’s been two months, I wonder how the best friend thing is going. Any updates? Did she like her mix CD?
Harry Nilsson - You’re Breakin’ my Heart

Bastard!
Beat me to it.
Stranglehold - Ted Nugent
Girls, Girls, Girls - Motley Crue
Highway to Hell, Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, Etc - AC/DC
A Parting Gesture by The Bluetones.
A sweet, kind of langorous sadness. Nice though
The only song you’ll ever need for this situation:
So come to me
Because I want
to comfort you
If you don’t, it’s alright
You may keep on sailing
