OH girl, that is SUCH an awesome song!!!
I have to say, though, that if I were going through a breakup, I would want to hear that Independent Women song by Destiny's Child.

WOW, is Fiona in a bad mood or what??! 
Actually there are 2 kinds of breakup songs:
1. The person is a jerk and you want to tell them to go screw themselves.
2. You still love the person and you want to wallow.
Best screw-you: "Someday" by Mariah Carey
Best wallow: "Anything For You" by Miami Sound Machine

I choose Brian McKnight's Anytime. When that song first came out, I was a junior in high school and I had just broken up with my boyfriend who was in college. I listened to that song a lot because it was exactly the way I was feeling.
Then Brian McKnight had to go ruin the song for me in this interview he did. They asked him if he had written the song to someone and he said something along the lines that he has never felt that way...he's never had a girl break his heart...he just wrote the song for the sake of writing a song. Kinda takes the emotion out of the song when you find out that the artist never really had those feelings.

okay..i know very predictable of me to reply to this but that's okay 
i totally forgot about this song..but i've gotta say my favorite part comes right before this quote : "What'd you think that I was gonna do, Curl up and die just because of you? I'm not that weak you know.."
ps - how freakin awesome is this song live? *sigh*

"Don't Think Twice" Bob Dylan
- you just kinda wasted my precious time...
but don't think twice... it's alright
Also have to vote for almost all of "Dilate" by Ani DiFranco
Especially one song that goes...
"How could you take almost everything...
Then come back for the rest"
Singing along is very cathartic because she's practically screaming.
