"Call Your Girlfriend" - Robyn

In comparison to Jesse McCarntey's "I'm Leavin'", this song is a much gentler way of telling your significant other that you met somebody new, but that isn't why I like it.  She tells her man to tell his ex-girlfriend that "the only way her heart will mend is when she learns to love again." Robyn's right.  Whenever I've lost someone through a breakup, or even a death, there's an emptiness that most people refer to as heart ache.  As I have gone through these hard times, I have noticed my heart begins to feel whole again when I find something to fill the void.  I have to leave the pain in the past and move forward with my life.  It could be making a new friend, getting a pet, strengthening an existing relationship, or finding a new love. It's time to do a little mending. . . .
