For all Who Hate Valentines Day: Bad Love Songs
For all of you out there who hate Valentine's Day (and believe me, there was a time when I was right there with you), I give you "Worst Love Songs." My personal vote for Most-Likely-To-Make-Me-Retch is Paul Anka, "Havin' My Baby." :puke:

4. Yup
But some of the lyrics they quoted in that article were hysterical. Especially the hair band lyrics. I always knew that those bands were a bunch of talent-less hacks, but when they tried to write love songs...omigod. Trite AND inept.

6. That's a stinker, indeed
Thanks for sharing (I think). I didn't actually listen to it, lest it be stuck in my head like that freakin' "Afternoon Delight" (thanks to TZ).

10. The Beatles' schizoid "Run for Your Life" -- with its vibrant upbeat tune and
downer I'll-murder-you lyrics

... Well you know that I'm a wicked guy
And I was born with a jealous mind,
And I can't spend my whole life tryin',
Just to make you toe the line.
You'd better run for your life if you can, little girl,
Hide your head in the sand, little girl.
Catch you with another man,
That's the end - ah, little girl.
Let this be a sermon,
I mean everything I said,
Baby, I'm determined,
And I'd rather see you dead ...

13. How 'bout a not quite love song?

"Waking Up Beside You"

I've been so alone for so long
Forgotten by the world
Forgotten to myself
Your effervescent eyes have awakened me
And brushed the dust away
But I knew you'd never stay

So I memorized the color of your eyes as I lost myself inside you
And I memorized the way our legs entwined as I drifted off beside you

I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you

At night I cling to you, I'm so afraid
Afraid the day will come
And I'll wake and find you gone
But you promised that you'd not abandon me
And kissed my fears away
But I woke up to that day

But I had memorized the way our eyes
would meet reflected in the bathroom mirror
And I memorized your naked silhouette as you slowly brushed your hair
I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you

I've been so alone for so long
I forgot how much it hurts
To wake up so alone

But I memorized how warm your body felt
as you lay half asleep beside me
And I memorized the way the sunlight
filled the room and played upon your body

I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you
I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you
