PITTSBURGH — Everyone loves a good break-up song.
A decent guitar riff combined with an I’ll-show-you-how-much-better-I-can-be attitude is a dynamite combination for a hit song.
A personal favorite of mine is “Better Off Without You” by The Clarks, and it’s not just because I’m a Pittsburgh kid that went to IUP in the early 2000s.
It’s because it perfectly captures the spirit of being free of a bad relationship, at least for me.
“I’m having fun and looking out for No. 1 and doing all the things I like to do. I’m having fun because I knew it all along: I’d be better off without you.
