Kihn You Dig It – Greg Kihn’s Breakup Song

One of my old favorites, “The Breakup Song (They Don’t Write ‘Em). Greg Kihn grew up in Baltimore, MD, but moved to San Francisco in the mid-70’s. His first hit was this tune, released on 1981’s “Rockihnroll”. You’re probably familiar with “Jeopardy” too, from 1983’s “Kihnspiracy”. You’re at least familiar with Weird Al Yankovic’s “I Lost on Jeopardy”, right? Well, Greg’s been a staple of the Bay Area music scene all this time. “The Breakup Song” is just under 3 minutes of well crafted pop-rock. Brings back memories, this one…
