Released by: Universal Music Indonesia
Senandung patah hati dan kekecewaan dibawakan oleh Pixie Lott dalam tatanan musik retro terinspirasi dari musik Motown di album studio ketiganya tertuang dalam sebuah lagu berjudul 'Break Up Song'. Sama seperti judulnya, lagu ini mengajak pendengar untuk meng-embrace kegetiran diri dalam menjalani proses pemisahan dari sebuah relationship.
Ga heran kalau berikutnya yang terjadi merupakan kebanjiran kata-kata iba, luapan emosi sedih, dan ungkapan asa yang hadir sebatas andai, "if". Lately I have felt an overwhelming, need to cry. If we can try to make it right. Semuanya itu dikawal dengan musik yang tak kalah menyayat, menusuk, mendukung segala daya dan upaya untuk menumbuhkan empati pendengar terhadap apa yang disajikan.
Terdengar manusiawi? Ya. Semua orang punya pengalaman dalam hal ini, yang memudahkan tercetaknya goal dari si lagu. But frankly, tatanan gambar dalam video musik untuk lagu ini tergolong mesum, sebagai interpretasi atas keintiman yang sempat terbangun dan kemudian runtuh. Ini seperti, kita bisa menerima kepedihan yang dialami Tapi saat mengetahui yang disesali adalah keintiman dan bukan rajutan emosi, kita seolah dikhianati.

LYRIC
By the grace of your lips
I have long searched happiness
And the love in our hearts
Shone away through the dark
But lately, lately, lately, lately I
Have felt an overwhelming need to cry
And maybe, maybe, maybe we can try
To make it right, oh, to make it right
This is our break up song,
But Can't we just get along
For the night?
Not a fight,
One last goodbye
But just a moment,
Let me hope and,
Baby, hold back, all the things we haven't said
Make love like we just met
By the way that you kiss,
I know it's over, yeah, all of this
And the one world, that we knew
Has broken in two
'Cause lately, lately, lately, lately I
Have felt again a change I can't deny
And, baby, baby, baby, if we try
We make it right, yeah, we make it right
This is our break up song,
But can't we just get along
For the night?
Not a fight,
One last goodbye
But just a moment
Let me hope and,
Baby, hold back all the things we haven't said
Make love like we just met
Oh, I'm gonna miss the way you held me in the morning
I'm gonna miss the future that we planned
The way we fought, the way we kissed
The heat inside, the tenderness
Love was our religion
This is our break up song,
But can't we just get along
For the night
In spite
Of the hurt we hide?
For old time's sake
Won't you just take
Me by the waist
Hold me underneath the sheets
Make love like our first week
This is our break up song
Can't we just get along
For the night?
Not a fight,
One last goodbye
But just a moment
Let me hope and,
Baby, hold back all the things we haven't said
Make love like we just met
