If I just went through a breakup I wouldn't want to listen to some girl telling me how bad it is. I want a guy whose been through that stuff. The only exception I've found so far is Camera Obscura's album My Maudlin Career. I think it would be hard for anyone to not relate to that.
Ahh yes, good point! I thought of that a little bit after I posted it. Like I wonder if there's guys, who after a break up, would listen to something like Teardrops on My Guitar. I'd probably listen to some Hanging Garden, but I doubt many other people would. I just don't know why! I guess it's just that if I want sad, I want sad.
