Breakup is a universal – almost everyone has experienced it and almost everyone can easily relate to it. And the thing is, it’s never easy. So instead of wallowing in sadness and heartache, why don’t you grab a huge tub of ice cream and listen to these songs. Let your favorite rockstar comfort you because hey, they’ve been there too.
