To me, the most heartbreaking song about unrequited love from the 70s is Linda Ronstadt's "Long, Long Time," and the way she sings it is just beautifully sad.

Thanks for the link to It Hurts to Be in Love. That is an interesting backstory that Sedaka first recorded it.
[quote] Co-written by Neil Sedaka’s regular writing partner Howard Greenfield, this was originally recorded by Neil but not issued by his label RCA Victor due to contractual issues. For Gene’s release, he was given permission to utilize Neil’s existing backing track while substituting his own lead vocals. MORE. Original version of "It Hurts To Be In Love". Rejected for release by RCA Victor because it was not recorded in their studios, as stipulated by Sedaka's contract. Unlike Pitney's classic rendition, you can clearly hear songwriter Toni Wine sing "It hurts..." on the bridge. Those two words are buried on Pitney's version.
Link to Sedaka's version.

There's this. I took it at face value at first. Then I read the diary of a guy I used to cat sit for in 1975-76. On one of his trips, I read his diary, which he had left in such a conspicuous place, I decided he meant for me to find it.
In it, he shrieked on paper how much he adored and loved me, and thought of me when he played this song. He had asked me to pose for a picture, and in his diary he wrote about how it could "hang upon the wall, to hide a nasty stain that's lying there."
He was a very excellent fuck...someone I wish I could still get in touch with. But he died in the early '90s. I only saw him a few times after 1977. If only I could have requited him.

A lot of these songs mentioned are about LOVE LOVE, not unrequited love. For me, the best unrequited love song is "Just My Imagination" by the Temptations:
Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by
I say to myself, you're such a lucky guy
To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true
Out of all the fellas in the world, she belongs to you
But it was just my imagination, running away with me
It was just my imagination, running away with me
Soon we'll be married and raise a family.
A cozy little home out in the country with two children, maybe three
I tell you, I can visualize it all. This couldn't be a dream, for too real it all seems
But it was just my imagination, once again
Running away with me
Tell you it was just my imagination
Running away with me
Every night on my knees I pray
Dear Lord, hear my plea
Don't ever let another take her love from me
Or I will surely die.
Her love is heavenly
When her arms enfold me
I hear a tender rhapsody
But in reality, she doesn't even know me...

"Walk Away Renee actually IS about unrequited love. The songwriter, 16-year-old Michael Brown crushed on the real Renee Fladen who wasn't interested and then moved away."
That may have spurred him to write the song but the song IS about a love that is gone, not "unrequited." The lyrics are plainly about a girlfriend/boyfriend relationship that doesn't exist anymore:
And when I see the sign that points one way
The lot we used to pass by every day
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame
From deep inside the tears that I'm forced to cry
From deep inside the pain that I chose to hide
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries
Your name and mine inside a heart upon a wall
Still finds a way to haunt me, though they're so small
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame

I'd say it's a break up.

Ladies! You're both right. IMO it doesn't matter whether there was a relationship or not. Unrequited means the love is not reciprocated. So if you break up, and one party still cries and moans and looks at pictures and dwells on memories, its just as bad (maybe worse) than someone who is in love, (just my imagination) or infatuated with a person who doesn't know you exist. They're both unrequited.

You're certainly assuming a lot. And I'm talking about the SONG, not about real life. And the song says the two people in the song were together a lot ("the lot we used to pass by every day") and indicates a relationship ("Your name and mine inside a heart upon a wall"). Sounds like they were together, and aren't anymore. That's what the SONG says. I think the guy who wrote it thought it would sound better as a love/lost situation.
By the way THREE people are credited with writing the song: Michael Brown, Bob Calilli, and Tony Sansone. Tony Sansone said that he is the primary writer. Sansone has stated in interviews that he wrote the lyrics for the song, and that he randomly chose the name Renée because the Beatles used the name Michelle in their hit song of the same name, and so he did likewise, choosing the French name Renée as the female object for the song.

Okay. I posted "If I Could Reach You." Yes, the guy is screwing her/him but he doesn't love her/him. I'd say that's unrequited.
Oh no, don't go It's hours till dawn And there's no one who'd rather be with you I know you know other girls like me I let you take my love Knowing you don't love me But if I could reach you some way If I knew the magic it would take To love you good enough on the outside And make you feel it on the inside Maybe I could make you stay If I could reach you The dark is getting light And you're dressed to go And never said a word about tomorrow But if I could reach you some way If I knew the magic it would take To love you good enough on the outside And make you feel it on the inside Maybe I could make you stay.

I know it's late, but one of my playlists just reminded me of this classic that I LOVE!

Sorry, folks.
The best version of "Love Hurts" was the Nazareth version. That's why it was the biggest hit.

Sorry, OP, this is from '91 but it has a 60s/70s feel to it.

R43 Just copied and pasted a bunch of shit from Wikipedia. It doesn't matter what bullshit Sansone said - this story is well-documented and everyone involved knows the song was written about the bass player's girl, Renee Fladen by Michael Brown, and that she wasn't interested in him since he was only 16 years old, and then moved away to New Jersey.
Seeing someone every day and writing their name on a wall doesn't mean you are in a relationship. What kind of moron do you have to be to have to be told this?
Stop trying to make your lame argument happen. Go read up on the Left Banke in real sources.
