"Parting Gift" is one of the two lead singles from Fiona Apple's third studio album, Extraordinary Machine (2005). It was released alongside "O' Sailor" on August 16, 2005.
MTV News described the song as "a characteristically bitter breakup song", and its protagonist chastises a former beau (calling him a "silly, stupid pastime") whilst lamenting their failed relationship: "It ended bad but I loved what we started".
