Last night I was warbling along with the studio recording of Emmylou's "Heartbreak Hill" (which is much more energetic than this live version) and thinking about heartbreak as a theme in music. Now as you know, my field of preference is classic country and bluegrass, and we've got a blue goodelin' of songs about heartbreak--but it's also a constant theme in other genres, from jazz, blues, rock, classical/opera.
So--what is your favorite song about heartbreak, and why? Start writing~~Fairweather

There have been many songs written about broken hearts, but I think there is only one all time song of a broken heart. I'll share it on Monday.
Cheers Jamie!
My sentiments exactly. Let's see which songs we have picked.
Alas, a movie not a song, but a real heartbreaker.
I really like this one Jamie. But I had a hard time picking a "heartbreak" song... :)
I had no trouble picking a heartbreak song - it was just a matter of which one!
