Sam  Cook "Cupid" for TOTHK

I think they've done this before. More or less the same as DM's Valentine's Day: Point Counterpoint set.

#2. Nilsson: You're Breaking My Heart

Sort of the ultimate breakup song. No mincing words here.

3. Captain & Tennille - Love Will Keep Us Together


If I may venture a guess, might we expect Joy Division next?

War of the Roses clip > Ben Folds Five - Song for the Dumped

Good choices all, but I think we've heard most if not all of these on past Valentine's sets.

Btw, anyone else out there?

7. Todd Rundgren - Couldn't I Just Tell You

My BOS pick, almost without question. A damn near perfect song.

J. Geils next?

Do we end with "Love Stinks"?

ETA: Oops, I see you already said that!

8. Woody & Diane from Annie Hall "Lurve, luff, etc." > Alanis Morissette - You Oughta Know

Yeah, this song is pretty pissed off.

I'd be pissed off too if I was forced to rhyme "theater" with "mother".

9. The Ramones - Baby, I Love You (with strings)

Joey indulges his Spector fetish. Runner-up for BOS.

And yes, it would seem that we're due for Love Stinks to close things out.

Well I'll be damned.

Props to AL for avoiding the obvious choice.

I have no idea what this "hate you with a passion" song is. But it's pretty, ummm, hateful.

She played J. Geils yesterday - I think it would break radio if Geils was played two days in a row.  And not even "good" J. Geils songs (IMO).

BOS, Alanis - she may not understand irony, but she sure gets bitterness.
