These are not love songs
Valentine’s Day is just a day; a neutral day, neither good nor bad. It can pass by unacknowledged every year if we choose. Dwelling on it, hating it, railing against it, that’s also a choice.
Wendy WorthingtonPublished 3 years ago in BeatPlaylist: Types of Single on Valentine's Day
Valentine's Day unites all the singles in the world to be lonely at the same moment without the acknowledgment (or permission) of the individual. It sounds sadder than it is. Being single doesn't have to mean being sad, especially when you have great music to listen to. Despite having the single commonality, most of us are single for different reasons. Pick and choose you're reasons and build a playlist based on your "Type of Single."
Do ya love?
As the dreaded Valentine's Day falls upon us and my social media feed is full of reminders that this is the all important day that will define how loved I am and thus my value as a human being, I can't help noticing that Valentine's Day seems evoke all of our fears, insecurities, vulnerabilities and wounds, and all of our defence mechanisms come out to play.

F*ckin’ Perfect. Yeah, that pretty much describes it. I was listening to Halestorm, probably a bit louder than I needed to, and missed my exit. And the next one wasn’t for five miles.
LUCINDA M GUNNINPublished 3 years ago in BeatSongs for the burnt of Heart
Life is full of heartbreak, frustrated desires, unrequited love. Along comes a holiday dedicated to love, passion, romance; quickly appropriated by the card,flower, candy, and now the beef jerky industry. Because who doesn't love a beef jerky rose, amirite?

When I was 17 I found my very first true love. He could do no wrong until everything he did had a huge red flag surrounding him. He became abusive emotionally and physically. When you look up the word toxic you will probably find a picture of us. After escaping with just the shirt on my back, I didn't feel normal until YEARS later. Many have gone through this story unfortunately, but if you haven’t but have just had your heart utterly and completely broken, I will provide to you the ultimate heart break playlist.
Power Up +7
Now, I should start off by telling you that these aren’t ranked in any particular order. 1. “Sorry not Sorry” by Demi Lovato
Vanessa R. PowellPublished 3 years ago in BeatMoney Doesn't Equal Love - Anti Valentines' Day Play List
Just to be clear, I am not anti-Valentines’ Day. Let that be known. I think at its core Valentines’ Day is a wonderful excuse to go above and beyond for your partner and express gratitude for the positive impact they’ve had on your life. The problem with Valentine’s Day, is capitalism.
Songs to Celebrate You
Ah, yes, Valentines Day. The fateful 14th day of the second month of February that everyone either anxiously waits for with bated breath or stubbornly sneers at with a giant bomb fire prepared in their backyard.
Amanda StarksPublished 3 years ago in BeatIt's Better to Have Loved and Lost....
I like to consider myself a hopeless romantic so in a way, I do enjoy seeing all the sweet gestures and creative ideas couples come up with on Valentine's day. Nevertheless, it's the endless supply of terrible love ballads that annoy me to no end. I imagine every radio station DJ walks into the studio on the 14th, blows the dust off an old box, and inserts "Valentine's Mix" then throws in some new stuff just for flare. Isn't this holiday supposed to be about going the extra mile? I feel like it's an entire day dedicated to making us relive the nostalgic feeling we would get a 3 a.m. when we heard Celine Dion's "The Power Of Love" playing on the TV. I'm certain someone's dad is digging through an old box looking for that CD right now.

I have been single on Valentine's Day more often than not in my life. Personally, this never bothered me because most of my friends were also single, and we usually spent the night together going out or hanging out in with candy and a movie.
Crysta CoburnPublished 3 years ago in BeatAnother Sad Indie Girl (Dying from Cancer) Playlist
1. "In the Lost and Found" (Honky Bach) Elliott Smith When I moved home to West Virginia two summers after I was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer (but really, I was), you were the first guy who responded (like, actually responded intelligently) to my messages on Tinder. After I told you I loved Elliott Smith, you confessed he happened to be one of your favorites as well.
