Since I'm not all of a Valentine's Day kinda person,here are my 40 un-love songs. Some are upbeat "hey its okay I'm over it" kinda songs,some are depressing and some are angry as love lost can make a person pissed. There's no order of importance,I just listed it off as I saw fit. (Un)Happy Valentine's Day folks! Oh,and artists in parenthesis are the original performers,btw.
