22 Ultimate Break-Up Songs

15. Boyz II Men €“ End of the Road

http://youtu.be/zDKO6XYXioc 'We belong together, and you know that I'm right?' the bargaining plea of any wronged and broken down party. This soul drips soul and R&B, but this pain walks the line of desperate longing; positively begging their partner to not go on, to not go passed the end of the road. And, I mean, come on that goddamn baritone spoken word section where we hear how she cheated on him but he doesn't care how much she hurt him because he loves her so. Such strong harmonised vocals break down into the aches and please of it being 'unnatural because you belong to me/I belong to you.'

14. The Rural Alberta Advantage €“ Don't Haunt This Place

http://youtu.be/tvths6X0rVI This little known duet captures the collapse of a loving relationship perfectly, even down to the packing up of the apartment, and even the dalliances back into passion. As the song title and request that they 'don't haunt this heart/don't haunt this place/you're heart is beating slow as it beats out of pace' before describing how this apartment grows lonely and dark. Not only this but they both still cling onto the things they wish could work because they still need each other so bad, or at least whatever it is they had. The upside; they consider they should do it again €“ ten years from the day.
