GLORIA Gaynor\u2019s I Will Survive has been named the greatest break-up song of all-time.<\/p>\n

The 1979 hit single is the go-to choice among love-scorned and heartbroken Brits thanks to its rousing chorus and lyrics like \u201cI've got all my life to live\u201d and \u201cGo on now, go, walk out the door\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It fought off a host of empowering tunes and songs of despair \u2013 including Bill Withers\u2019 Ain\u2019t No Sunshine and Fleetwood Mac\u2019s Go Your Own Way.<\/p>\n

Crying by Roy Orbison also secured plenty of votes, along with Carly Simon\u2019s You\u2019re So Vain, and Whitney Houston\u2019s version of I Will Always Love You.<\/p>\n

Other popular break-up tunes include Sinead O\u2019Connor\u2019s Prince-penned hit, Nothing Compares 2 U, Al Green\u2019s How Can You Mend A Broken Heart? and Carol King\u2019s It\u2019s Too Late.<\/p>\n

Adele\u2019s infamous Someone Like You completed the top 10.<\/p>\n

The research of 2,000 adults was commissioned by Sky Mobile, which has collaborated with rapper Lady Leshurr to create a new bespoke break-up song, Time to 65075.<\/p>\n

The track\u2019s music video is raising awareness of the Text To Switch service available to all UK mobile phone owners on any network.<\/p>\n

And it pays homage to several iconic rap and R\u2019n\u2019B videos – eagle-eyed viewers will spot tributes to the likes of Nelly & Kelly\u2019s Dilemma, Missy Elliot\u2019s The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly), and Drake\u2019s Hotline Bling.<\/p>\n

Paul Sweeney, managing director at Sky Mobile, said: \u201cTime to 65075 is the break-up anthem we all need this summer to help us dance to a fresh start.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lady Leshurr added: \u201cWe\u2019re all in the mood for a City Boyz and Hot Girl Summer, so what better time to ditch your bad relationships.\u201d<\/p>\n

The study also found more than half of adults have listened to music to help them get over an ex \u2013 rising to 72 per cent among those aged 18 to 24.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And a quarter have a specific song they turn to when they\u2019re feeling broken-hearted, frustrated, or indeed of some positive inspiration.<\/p>\n

On average, those polled listened to their go-to break-up song a whopping 16 times in a row at the height of their heartbreak.<\/p>\n

While 64 per cent of those polled have a song they can no longer listen to as it reminds them of an ex.<\/p>\n

And a high proportion of respondents could very well be turning to such hits over the warmer months.<\/p>\n

Carried out through OnePoll, the research also found 24 per cent of those currently with a partner have \u2018considered\u2019 ending their relationship this summer.<\/p>\n

It also emerged 27 per cent of mobile phone owners are also thinking about dumping their mobile provider at some point in the next 12 months \u2013 with six in 10 unaware this can be done by text.<\/p>\n
