My checkered romantic record doesn't help matters. Right now, the name of my game is fun fun fun. Fun and games. If love does comes knocking on my door, sure, I'll answer, but I'm not planning on leaving the porch light on. In celebration of my new romantic outlook, here are nine of my favorite down-on-love songs.
- "After You": Shara Nelson "After you after you after you, I close the door. Ain't no one getting in." Amen to that.
- "Fast Love": George Michael An excellent musical argument in favor of the one-night stand.
- "Fast As You Can": Fiona Apple I told you I was trouble...
- "I Don't Want A Lover": Texas ...I just need a friend.
- "If Love Is A Red Dress (Hang Me In Rags)": Maria McKee Devastatingly beautiful as the song is, don't try this at home, folks. After all, looking good is the best revenge.
- "I'll Never Fall In Love Again": Dionne Warwick Dionne doesn't sound particularly convincing, but as resolutions go, this one's as good as any.
- "I'm Not In Love": 10CC If anyone falls, press play and repeat.
- "No More I Love You's" Annie Lennox What becomes of the brokenhearted?
- "What's Love Got To Do With It?": Tina Turner Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
