Good anti-love songs

[Guest The Metal Maniac]

You know, I've never considered "Black #1" to be an anti-love song. I've always interpreted it as an attack on a girl who pretends to be goth, when she's really not.

G'N'R- Used to Love Her

 

I used to love her, but I had to killer her

[Guest diavolina]

well i used Black No.1 b/c of the following lyrics:

 

"loving you was like loving the dead"

 

and

"fucking you was like fucking the dead"

 

thats not exactly something you'd say to someone you love now is it?

[Guest Vitamin X]

I can't say I disagree with "Don't Speak" by No Doubt, since that is a fantastic song..

But the last Staind album is ALL depressing anti-love songs (probably realizing that's marketable), so there has to be a few good pickings... I think "It's Been Awhile" (although extremely overplayed, the first time I heard it it reminded me so much of my ex I cried for a longass time) and "Fade" are awesome songs.

 

I want to use a System of a Down song, unfortunately there's no real personal feeling in System songs, which probably takes a lot away from their appeal to some, if not most people.

Reveille Feel

 

Everyday people are preyed upon

Some fight, some fold, others play along

But now it's not another story off the evening news

Not just a statistic the warnings use

Seventeen years and a dose of reality

Two years back seems like yesterday

Raped, tortured, robbed of pride

Innocence lost- torn from inside

So I step aside and let life run its course

A handful of predators driven by a darker force

And there's nothing I could do

I thought I knew you

Feel, come into reason

Feel, come into me

Heal, feel, I wanna make you squeal

It's payback time, though it hurts to repeal

Cause I've tried so hard to make it stop

But it lurks in my dream and lingers in my thoughts

I couldn't talk, they wouldn't respect me

So I told myself that it didn't effect me

But it does, it hurts so much

Now the mask is on- I've grown numb to touch

(chorus)

I want you to hurt like I still do

You've taken so much that you can't replace

I want the pain to come rolling through

I want to see it rolling down your face

I want you to hurt...like me

Because time can only heal so much

I want you to feel it you motherfucker

I want you to feel it you fucking pig

I want you to feel what I felt

I want you to- feel

"She's a Jar"--Wilco

 

She's a jar

With a heavy lid

My pop quiz kid

A sleepy kisser

A pretty war

With feelings hid

She begs me not to miss her

 

She says forever

To light a fuse

We could use

A hand full of wheel

And a day off

And a bruised road

However you might feel

Tonight is real

 

When I forget how to talk, I sing

Wont you please

Bring that flash to shine

And turn my eyes red

Unless they close

When you click

And my face gets sick

Stuck

Like a question unposed

 

Just climb aboard

The tracks of a trains arm

In my fragile family tree

And watch me floating inches above

The people under me

 

Please beware the quiet front yard

I warned you

Before there were water skies

I warned you not to drive

Dry your eyes, you poor devil

 

Are there really ones like these?

The ones I dream

Float like leaves

And freeze to spread skeleton wings

I passed through before I knew you

 

I believe it's just because

Daddy's payday is not enough

Oh, I believe it's all because

Daddy's payday is not enough

 

Just climb aboard

The tracks of a trains arm

In my fragile family tree

And watch me floating inches above

The people under me

 

She's a jar

With a heavy lid

My pop quiz kid

A sleepy kisser

A pretty war

With feelings hid

You know she begs me not to hit her

[Guest Lord of The Curry]

Misfits- " Die Die Die My Darling"

Matthew Good Band- "She's got a new disguise"

Ben Folds Five- "Song for the dumped". Hey, I know most people loathe BFF but I can't resist the line " I want my money back, give me my money back.........you bitch!".

[Guest goodhelmet]

lotc, ben folds five rules and that song rules so fuck the non-believers.

 

as for anti-love sings, i think j geils said it best... "love stinks"

[Guest PuzzyBludPopzicle]

"I Respect Your Feelings As A Woman" - Anal Cunt

[Guest Russ-atron]

"Why Bother" -weezer

 

It's a damn good song, catchy as hell...

 

 

I know I should get next to you

you got a look that makes me think you're cool

But it's just sexual attraction

Not somethin' real so I'd rather keep wackin'

 

Why bother?

 

it's gonna hurt me

It's gonna kill when you desert me

This happened to me twice before

It won't happen to me anymore

 

 

I've known a lot of girls before

What's the harm in knowin' one more?

Maybe we could even get together

Maybe you could break my heart next summer

It's a crying shame I'm all alone

Not with you, nor her, nor anyone

Won't you knock me on my head

Crack it open let me outta here.

[Guest kkktookmybabyaway]

Just about any rap song out there with "yo bitch get over here and..."

[Guest Prime Time Andrew Doyle]

"Nobody Knows It But Me" Babyface

"Sleepin In My Bed" Dru Hill

EDIT*"Best Man" Jagged Edge

[Guest Kotzenjunge]

Get Over You -- Sophie Ellis Bextor. Not exactly anti-love, but it's about a girl pretty much disavowing any existence the guy has.

 

Dancefloor -- Kylie Minogue. A girl shakes her ass more than usual to show a guy he can't have her.

 

Sorry folks, this is about as anti-love as I can find in my current musical taste.

 

Fo sheez,

Kotzenjunge

"She Hates me"

Puddle of Mudd
