Being a product of the 80s, I was always into making mix tapes. Since tapes have given way to CDs and iPods, making a mix for myself or someone special isn't as hard as it used to be, but it's still just as important. Nothing can get your workout flowing like a well laid out list of songs. But in reality, the mix tape is all about expressing one's feelings for another person, whether that be a newly found love or a love that's possibly leaving. So without further adieu, here is my Ultimate Get Him/Her Back CD Playlist:
- All Out of Love (Air Supply) "I'm lying alone with my head on the phone, thinking of you til it hurts"
- Baby Come Back (Player) "I was wrong and I just can't live without you"
- To Love You More (Celine Dion) "She won't love you like I will"
- Don't Let Him Steal Your Heart Away (Phil Collins) "Tell me what else can I do but say I was wrong"
- I'll Be There For You (Bon Jovi) "I pray to God you'll give me one more chance"
- It's No Good (Depeche Mode) "Don't say you're happy out there without me, I know you can't be cause it's no good"
- Unbreak My Heart (Toni Braxton) "take back that sad word goodbye, bring back the joy to my life"
- Hopelessly Devoted To You (Olivia Newton-John) "my heart is saying don't let go"
- You Were Meant For Me (Jewel) "Cause it was happy or I was sad and it made me miss you oh so bad"
- I'm the Only One (Melissa Etheridge) "and I'm the only one who'll drown in my desire for you"
- Right Here Waiting for You (Richard Marx) "whatever it takes or how my heart breaks"
- Making Love Out of Nothing at All (Air Supply) "But I'm never gonna make it without you, do you really want to see me crawl"
- Always Something There to Remind Me (Naked Eyes) "and I can't help recalling how it felt to kiss and hold you tight"
- It Must Have Been Love (Roxette) "it was all that I wanted, now I am living without"
- Hard to Say I'm Sorry (Chicago) "After all that's been said and done, you're just a part of me I can't let go"
- Always (Bon Jovi) "you see I've always been a fighter, but without you I just give up"
- At this Moment (Billy Vera and the Beaters) "if you'd stay, I'd subtract 20 years from my life"
- Can't We Try (Dan Hill and Vonda Shepard) "I love you so much baby, that it tears me up inside"
- Careless Whisper (Wham) "should have known better than to cheat a friend, waste this chance that I've been given"
- Don't Let It End (Styx) "loneliness fills me up inside cause I'm missing you"
- How Am I Supposed To Live Without You (Laura Branigan) "didn't come here for crying, didn't come here to break down, just a dream of mine is coming to an end"
- How Do I Live (LeAnn Rimes) "if I had to live without you, what kind of life would that be"
- I Don't Wanna Live Without Your Love (Chicago) "I could never make it though my life if I had to make it on my own"
- If I Could Turn Back Time (Cher) "you walked out that door i swore that i didn't care, but i lost everything, darling, getting there"
- Please Don't Go (K.C. and the Sunshine Band) "that I am gonna miss your love the minute you walk out that door"
So you think you have a song that is a better choice? State your case in the comments and say which of the current songs should be replaced. If I agree with you, I will make the change. Be Warned - Silly suggestions will be ridiculed greatly and most country songs will be completely ignored.

@1 I didn't want to steal your thunder when you put your own list up on your site.

Searching my iPod, I come up with a couple:
Edwin McCain - I'll Be - Tell me that we belong together Dress it up with the trappings of love; I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips ; Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
ELO - Telephone Line - Hello. How are you?
Have you been alright, through all those lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely nights
That's what I'd say. I'd tell you everything
If you'd pick up that telephone yeah yeah yeah
Eric Clapton - Layla - Layla, you've got me on my knees.
Layla, I'm begging, darling please.
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind. (In truth, I don't think Eric had her yet; just love the song)
Melissa Etheridge - I Wanna Come Over - I want to come over
To hell with the consequence
You told me you loved me
That's all I believe
James Taylor - Fire and Rain - I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
Jackson Browne - Call It A Loan - You were meant to play your part
In the design of a desperate heart
And while you gave your love to me
I was betting I was getting it free
Oh... If I'd only known
...What your heart cost
Oh... can we call it a loan
And a debt that I owe
On a bet that I lost
No Doubt - Don't Speak - You and me We used to be together Everyday together always
I really feel That I'm losing my best friend I can't believe This could be the end It looks as though you're letting go And if it's real Well I don't want to know
Bruce Springsteen - Backstreets - Blame it on the truth that ran us down you can blame it all on me Terry
It don't matter to me now
When the breakdown hit at midnight there was nothing left to say
But I hated him and I hated you when you went away
Bob Marley - Waiting In Vain - I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl,
My heart says follow t'rough.
But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line,
But the waitin' feel is fine:
Cheap Trick - The Flame - Another night slowly closes in,
And I feel so lonely.
Touching heat freezing on my skin,
I pretend you still hold me.
I'm going crazy, I'm losing sleep.
I'm in too far, I'm in way too deep over you.
I can't believe you're gone.
You were the first, you'll be the last.
Cinderella - Don't Know What You Got - Don't know what you got til it's gone
Don't know what it is I did so wrong
Now I know what I got
It's just this song
Dave Matthews - Grace Is Gone - Neon shines through smoky eyes tonight
It's 2 am - I'm drunk again it's heavy on my mind
I could never love again so much as I love you
Dave Matthews - If I Had It All - And if I were a king
If I had eveything
If I had you and I could give you your dreams
If I were giant-sized, on top of it all
Then tell me what in the world would I go on for
If I had it all
The Beatles - Norwegian Wood - And when I awoke, I was alone, this bird had flown
So I lit a fire, isn't it good, norwegian wood.
John Lennon - Jealous Guy - I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy

The Breakup Song - The Greg Kihn Band
We had broken up for good just an hour before ah uh ah uh uh uh uh ah,
Now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing 'cross the floor ah uh ah uh uh uh uh ah,
And then the band slowed the tempo when the music took you down ah uh ah uh uh uh uh ah,
It was the same old song with the melancholy sound ah uh ah uh uh uh uh ahs
They don't write 'em like that anymore
They just don't write 'em like that anymore

Can't Get You Off My Mind -- Lenny Kravitz
Life is just a lonely highway
I’m out here on the open road
I’m old enough to see behind me
But young enough to feel my soul
I don’t wanna lose you baby
And I don’t wanna be alone
Don’t wanna live my days without you
But for now I’ve got to be without you
I’ve got a pocket full of money
And pocket full of keys that have no bounds
But then I think of lovin’
And I just can’t get you off of my mind
