"Hurt Feelings" was the first single from I Told You I Was Freaky, the second Flight of the Conchords album. It premiered on the duo's TV series and hit iTunes the next day, February 2, 2009. It's a rap song with its heart on its sleeve: Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement spend it cataloguing the times their feelings got hurt, a very un-gangsta list of grievances.
The two wrote and sing it, and Mickey Petralia produced it. The video puts them in Mozart costumes for one shot, and the show also ran a reprise in which Murray, Mel, Doug, Greg and Clement air their own grievances against other characters, with McKenzie on backing vocals.
