Recollections #5 – Anti-Valentine’s Playlist
It’s Valentine’s Day this Tuesday, but on The Juvenilia, we’re celebrating with a playlist of “Anti-Valentine” songs - songs about hating someone so much you love them, songs about love that is passionate, ugly, weird, or hurtful. Anything other than your traditional, sentimental, reciprocal love song:
“No Children” – The Mountain Goats
“We are drowning, / There is no sign of land. / You are coming down with me / Hand in unlovable hand.”
“Fistful of Love” – Anthony and the Johnsons
“And I feel your burning eyes burning holes, / Straight through my heart. / It’s out of love.”
“Gallery Piece” – Of Montreal
“I wanna be your love, / I wanna make you cry / And sweep you off your feet. / I wanna hurt your pride, / I wanna slap your face, / I wanna paint your nails.”
“Jackie Big Tits” – The Kooks
“So hard to believe that you’re dreaming of me too, / But it’s true ./ You only go around, round round.”
“Foundations” – Kate Nash
“My fingertips are holding onto the / Cracks in our foundations, / And I know that I should let go, / But I can’t.”
“How Fucking Romantic” – The Magnetic Fields
“How fucking romantic, / Must we really waltz? / Drag another cliche / Howling from the vaults.”

“Selfish Lovers in Prague” by Eylül Aslan
You might be homeless and starving, but we are in love and we don’t care.
“Every Breath You Take” – The Police
“Every breath you take, / Every move you make, / Every bond you break, every step you take, / I’ll be watching you.”
“Daniel” – Bat for Lashes
“And in the golden blue / Car you took me to, / The darkest place you knew, / And set fire to my heart.”
“Vomit” – Girls
“Nights I spend alone, / I spent ‘em running around looking for you, baby.”
“When I’m With You” – Best Coast
“The world is lazy, / But you and me / We’re just crazy.”
“Bruises” – Chairlift
“I tried to do handstands for you, / But every time I fell for you. / I’m permanently black and blue, / Permanently blue for you.”
With love (I guess),
The Juvenilia team
