Not So Lovey-Dovey Valentine's Day Songs

Happy Valentine's Day, glam fans. Over the past three-plus years, we've talked a lot about great love tunes and awesome power ballads. But how about a list of songs that are not so lovey-dovey. You know, a sort of anti-Valentine's Day list. Here's a few of my picks, in no real order:

Bon Jovi - You Give Love a Bad Name

Joan Jett and the Blackhearts - I Hate Myself for Loving You

Def Leppard - Love Bites

J. Geils Band - Love Stinks

Nazareth - Love Hurts

What do you think of my list? Got anything to add? There are tons of angry love/I-hate-life songs out there and the five above were the first to come to my mind. And you know what? I literally love - seriously love - each song on my list. I guess it's easy to love a song about hate (or at least angst)!

I can't believe no one has mentioned "Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away)." Probably my favorite Motley Crue song.

[The Tinzeljunkie]

mötley crüe's "looks that kill" is a nice valentine song, if I had to pick one. But Joan Jett's music is also loveable :)

[Sweet Lou]

Showing my age, BUT,"Paradise by the Dashboard Lights"

[Kenny Ozz]

I'll go with "I hate kissing you goodbye" by Tuff. Its not exactly your typical love song,

[Shadow]

Love's A B%tch- Quiet Riot
Now You See It Now You Don't-Ozzy
Queen Of Spades-Styx
