11. Al Green – “Tired of Being Alone”
selected by Yoko and The Oh No’s
12. Mina – “Se telefonando”
selected by James Vella of yndi halda
“A truly heartbreaking piece of music, scored by Ennio Morricone. Yet the grandeur of his arrangement can only support Mina’s yearning vocal delivery. An English translation of the key lyric: “If I could look at you again, and be sure you are not suffering, I would look at you again.”

selected by Katy Goodman of La Sera

15. Deerhoof – “Breakup Songs”
selected by Deep Sea Diver
“Title track from an amazing album following the breakup of the marriage of Satomi and Greg from Deerhoof. An unfortunate situation that led to one of the most creative and screwed up pop albums of all time.”
16. Leonard Cohen – “Is This What You Wanted”
selected by David Brewis of Field Music
“We listened to it in the van today and it’s pleasingly brutal. I’m taking it to be about the sheer depth of bitterness that can exist between two people who’ve loved each other.”
17. Bright Eyes – “Lover I Don’t Have To Love”
selected by Coeur de Pirate
“I remember listening to Bright Eyes when I was younger and hating on the concept, thinking it would eventually make me sad at any cost. I still enjoy it today.”

selected by Anton Hochheim of Force Field PR
19. Ty Dollar $ign – “Horses In The Stable”
selected by N-A-R-C
