Songs about men sung by women? Rop

Girl Power (Getting over him) - "Get Out and Stay Out" from 9 to 5 The Musical

This is a question for which AI also might be quite useful with the right prompt.

For some reason the song that first came to mind is the duet A Man from the Alan Menken/David Spencer off-Broadway show, Weird Romance.  A bit obscure but fits what you want perfectly.

There are more obvious choices like I Know Him So Well, Every Day A Little Death...

Marry The Man Today from Guys and Dolls

"No More" from See What I Wanna See

A girl of few words:

There's a fine fine line:

Goodbye to love:

Sam:

Making a good thing better:

You must love me:

I know the truth:

Easy as life:

The greatest performance of my life: 

I just wanna dance:

In his eyes:

Nobody's side:

Another suitcase in another hall:

Toucha, toucha, touch me:

“I Hate Men” from Kiss Me Kate.

”Stepsister’s Lament” from Cinderella

For a story song: "Letterbomb" from American Idiot.

For a processing song: "There's a Fine, Fine Line" from Avenue Q.

For a getting-over-him song: "Anything But Lonely" from Aspects of Love.

Love the attention Weird Romance is getting in this thread, that song was my first thought too! 

I'm trying to think of some that don't revolve in some way around romance or heartbreak, and it's kind of unfortunate that there are so few.

But one really lovely song that does not fit that bill that just occured to me is "What Makes Me Love Him?" from THE APPLE TREE. 

 

Edit: lol forgot the thread explicitly asked for breakup/processing songs lol. 

HIGH FIDELITY may actually have some stuff. "She Goes," "Too Tired," I Slept With Someone (Who Handled Kurt Cobain's Intervention)"...

Great minds (see my post earlier) ;)"

DANG! Even worded the same!
