The Anti-Valentine playlist 2019

Valentines can be a difficult time for people who've just broken up (or maybe not!) so here is one to cheer them up

 

 

These two southern swampers measure up well one for cheating witches, the other for evil poon hounds...
 

 

 

...But this one's the right one for my beloved boss...
 

 

sort of a left-field anti-valentine I guess

Great record and i think the best version , but I wish it had been released on a original USA 45!

 

Can't go wrong with this Gem 

 

 

There's me just about to write Nina's card.....  

Len 

Given its controversial status - an anti-valentine record on several levels...
 

 

I get told off for listening to this one at home (too close to the knuckle for someone with my suicidal tendencies) but it doesn't get much more anti-valentine than this (defo the best version IMO)....
 

 

Court Davis - Try To Think.....

 

This is it for me

 

 

 

Last one

 

nice adds - am getting that anti-valentine vibe 

though sometimes work better if ya space the adds out time wise..

as in one every so and so rather than in groups 

 

One certain song springs to mind, that has to be the most anti valentine song of all time, but it don't fit into the Soul genre in the slightest way.

 

 

Extreme anti-valentine

Apologies, the opening posting to the thread didn't state it had to be soul related but now I spotted it's the About The Soul section I understand. Not to worry as I have another angle covered, Main Source from 1991, great lyrics and contains a sample from Donald Byrd's "Think Twice."

 

Some excellent selections already, how about.

Neither One of Us - Gladys & the Pips

 

 

love this one

 

From the LP "Love Wars" of course 

Cheers Paul

Good thinking Mike, but it gets exciting!  

 

Best version for me

JJ Barnes - got to get rid off you

Here's my contribution - Joe "Valentine" - I Lost The Only Love I Had    

Not the kind of kiss you want to hear about 

about on Valentine's Day - 

 

I Never Loved Her Anyway...

 

 

Now the other side of my personality wants a go and he is determined to speak up for romance and love and wants to say love is the greatest thing on earth and the best thing we've got. He also thinks to send a card full of love to someone who may not expect it or who will never know who its from is just about the nicest compliment you could ever pay anyone. He also says that it could potentially make someone so happy that it would be daft not to send one.

So there it is and he insisted that I post a romantic valentine tune right in the middle of this lot, I told him that he might be dropping me in the

sh-t, so don't shoot the messenger.  

 

this arrived in letter box from NY today just in time for Valentines

 

This has got to be the ultimate anti Valentine's record.

And one of the greatest northern soul records ever.

A slowie for me, The After Hours - I Don't Wanna Cry

 

Does he have to draw you pictures? Does he have to spell it out? Face it girl, it’s over.

 

At least this suggestion fits the brief.

The Tams - Hey Girl Don't Bother Me

 

 

Here's the best Leroy Taylor " not the marrying kind"

The late Great Paul Williams,what a voice. 

Lots of candidates on Don Covay's brilliant 'Super Dude' album-

Leave Him.

I Was checkin' out as she was checkin' in.

Bad mouthing.

Somebody's  been enjoying my home.

I wonder what was on Don's mind when he cut the album!!! Ha.

 

Tim.

 

Millie Jackson .

Probably the most recognised anti love song of all time
