8 killer break up songs by boys who are unlucky in love
is back with his new single My Way and no, it isn't a cover of the Frank Sinatra classic. It's about a rubbish relationship.
Which is something we all have experience of right? Right.
My Way is Radio 1's Track Of The Day because A. It's amazing and B. It deals with a situation everyone can relate to because yes, even boys get their hearts broken.
But Calvin isn't alone. All the best boys in pop have been through the same. Here's how they all dealt with it.
Calvin Harris - My Way
(Warning: Third party video may contain adverts)
The killer lyrics:
"Lie awake, two faced,
But in my heart I understand,
I made my move and it was all about you."
We're not going to jump to conclusions about who this might be about, but Calvin has been through a very public break-up in recent months. All we know is that they are never, ever getting back together. Like, ever.
Justin Bieber - Love Yourself
(Warning: Third party video may contain adverts)
The killer lyrics:
"You think you broke my heart, oh, girl for goodness' sake
You think I'm crying on my own. Well, I ain't."
We don't believe the original lyrics were 'you can go and love yourself' either. It's not just you.
Shawn Mendes - Stitches
(Warning: Third party video may contain adverts)
The killer lyrics:
"Just like a moth drawn to a flame
Oh you lured me in I couldn't sense the pain
Your bitter heart cold to the touch"
What sort of heartless monster would ditch ? We're here for you.
The 1975 - The Sound
(Warning: Third party video may contain adverts)
The killer lyrics:
"I don't regret it but I'm glad that we're through
So don't you tell me that you 'just don't get it'
Cause I know you do."
Matt Healy does sadness pretty perfectly on songs like Somebody Else and Change Of Heart but we prefer it when there's a sting in the tail.
Years & Years - King
(Warning: Third party video may contain adverts)
The killer lyrics:
"Cut cover, take that test
Hold courage to your chest
Don’t wanna wait for you
Don’t wanna have to lose
All that I've compromised to feel another high"
Olly Alexander turned his break up into a No.1 hit. We just sat at home looking at old photos on Instagram and wondering where it all went wrong.
Olly Murs - You Don't Know Love
(Warning: Third party video may contain adverts)
The killer lyrics:
"Thanks to you I know lies, lies, lies
How it feels when love dies, dies, dies."
has recently said he is thinking of joining Tinder. In which case, so are we.
Gnash feat. Olivia - I Hate You, I Love You
The killer lyrics:
"Sometimes you gotta burn some bridges just to create some distance
I know that I control my thoughts and I should stop reminiscing"
Remember: The best advice is the advice you give yourself.
Unless that advice is to call your ex at 3am in the morning, drunk, to see if there's still a chance. In which case, it's THE WORST.
Sam Smith - Stay With Me
(Warning: Third party video may contain adverts)
The killer lyrics:
"Why am I so emotional?
No it's not a good look, gain some self control"
It's time to move on. You deserve better.
Kanye West - Heartless
(Warning: Third party video may contain adverts)
The killer lyrics:
"You run and tell your friends that you're leaving me
They say that they don't see what you see in me
You wait a couple months then you gon' see
You'll never find nobody better than me"
Look, if it can happen to it can happen to ANY of us. At least Kanye's always got Kanye.
