Christina has SUCH beautiful voice! Just amazing! Can't believe she wrote the whole thing! You can really hear the sadness in her voice! Bravo Christina! - TruLuv113

Christina Grimmie is so underrated and her songs are so good especially Liar Liar, you can really hear the emotion in the way she sings and the power behind the words is unreal.

7 Smile - Lily Allen

One of my favorites!

8 I Knew You Were Trouble - Taylor Swift

My God, there's no accounting for taste on this site. I very much fail to see how this is a good revenge song. The story is: The guy got what he wanted, moved on to the next girl, doesn't give a flying flip, and now she's lamenting the fact that she was stupid enough to let herself get taken advantage of by a guy she knows didn't care about her from the beginning. That is the opposite of empowering. It's not even a good "breakup" song, considering it's not even about a real relationship or a breakup, just a one-night stand. Just wow.

It is a perfect revenge song. You're just gonna like it so much that you will fell in love with this song as well as with Taylor Swift

I like it so much it is the best revengeful song I've ever heard in my life. Trust me you surely gonna like it :))

Just love the song. really Taylor Swift is a great singer. She has such a good voice

9 That's What You Get - Paramore

Absolutely EPIC! Great song, very catch, and definitely made me smile.

THIS IS THE BEST SONG EVER! You should also listen to Misery Business.

10 Before He Cheats - Carrie Underwood

This should be way above Taylor Swift; Carrie Underwood is iconic in her perfect revenge song, and her voice highlights all of the emotional scars of a tumultuous relationship, whereas Taylor Swift writes a song every time a man sees what's really in her!

Honestly songs like this make you hate all women altogether. Hopefully not all women are like this

It's so perfect

Simply... the ultimate revenge song... and the music video is even better :D

The Contenders

11 Call Me When You're Sober - Evanescence

12 Slow Down - Selena Gomez
13 Wide Awake - Katy Perry

I really love this song!

14 So What - Pink

This should be in the top 10

15 We Are Never Ever Ever Getting Back Together - Taylor Swift

I think this is an awesome song for femals to listen to when they are going thrue a break up

You can really hear how Lzzy is feeling when she's singing this song! Love how powerful her voice is!

17 Your Friend Is Better Than You Ever Were - Dolores Delano
18 Habits (Stay High) - Tove Lo

One of the greatest pop songs ever in my mind. Really tells an in depth story. - Ned964

20 Rolling In the Deep - Adele

21 Eamon - F*** It (I Don't Want You Back)

He didn't Have 2 Sing About Her If It not about Frankee

22 Better Than Revenge - Taylor Swift
23 You Oughta Know - Alanis Morissette

Please. If this song didn't cut to the soul of every lack of commitment laden male in Western society, I don't know what did, myself included... I think Ms. Morissette spoke for a lot women when this song hit the airwaves. Ouch. This was an eye opener. - Ned964

PERFECT revenge song. It's my anthem!

25 Don't Hold Your Breath - Nicole Scherzinger
