Sorry the name of that Hoobastank song is really "The reason".

 

Good song.

 

I agree. That is an EXCELLENT song! And how about 3 Doors Down - Here Without You and don't bash me for this one but what about Kelly Clarkson - Breakaway..or maybe that one is for the DUMPERS. But seriously, more dumpees should listen to that one. It's very uplifting I think.

Hopefully when everyone's recovered and found someone worthwhile, the song will be "Can't Take My Eyes Off You", Lauryn Hill version. It's gotta be the best love song of all time.
