Valentine's Day is right around the corner and if you're anything like me, you despise this wretched holiday invented by greeting card companies to make people feel like crap. So, in honour of this speical occasion, I'd like you guys to recommend some great anti-love/hate songs that I can listen to while I wallow in my own self-pity. Thanks.

Song for the Dumped by Ben Folds Five is a personal favourite of mine:

 

So you wanted

to take a break

Slow it down some and

have some space

 

Well fuck you too

Give me my money back

Give me my money back

you bitch

I want my money back

(And don't forget to give

me back my black T-Shirt)

 

Wish I hadn't bought you

dinner

Right before you dumped me

on your front porch

Give me my money back

Give me my money back

You bitch

I want my money back

and don't forget

 

And don't forget.

Rammstein's "Rosenrot" (Rose-red)

 

(translated)

 

A girl saw a little rose

It bloomed there in bright heights

She asked her sweetheart

if he could fetch it for her

 

She wants it and that's fine

So it was and so it will always be

She wants it and that's the custom

Whatever she wants she gets

 

Deep wells must be dug

if you want clear water

Rose-red, oh Rose-red

Deep waters don't run still

 

The boy climbs the mountain in torment

He doesn't really care about the view

Only the little rose is on his mind

He brings it to his sweetheart

 

She wants it and that's fine

So it was and so it will always be

She wants it and that's the custom

Whatever she wants she gets

 

Deep wells must be dug

if you want clear water

Rose-red, oh Rose-red

Deep waters don't run still

 

At his boots, a stone breaks

Doesn't want to be on the cliff anymore

And a scream lets everyone know

Both are falling to the ground

 

She wants it and that's fine

So it was and so it will always be

She wants it and that's the custom

Whatever she wants she gets

 

Deep wells must be dug

if you want clear water

Rose-red, oh Rose-red

Deep waters don't run still

 

 

 

hmm, yet another good Rammstein one, it's sort of a poem tacked onto the ending of a song:

 

 

He met a girl that was blind

Shared sorrow and like-minded

A star went by from heaven

She wished that she could see

 

She opened her eyes

And left him in the same night

Blur - "No Distance Left to Run"

 

It's over

You don't need to tell me

I hope you're with someone who makes you feel safe in your sleeping tonight

I won't kill myself

Trying to stay in your life

I got no distance left to run

 

When you see me

Please turn your back and walk away

I don't want to see you

Cos I know the dreams that you keep is wearing me

And when your coming down

Think of me here

I got no distance left to run

 

Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhh

 

It's over

I knew it would end this way

I hope you're with someone who makes you feel

That this life is the night

And it settles down, stays around

Spends more time with you

I got no distance left to run

 

I'm coming home

Soooo ohhhh

Ohhh...
