READERS REVENGE - YOUR Top 10 Songs About Bad Relationships

As always, the Readers have spoken.  Sometimes you agree.  Sometimes you STRONGLY disagree.  Sometimes I overlook the obvious song.  Sometimes I forget the perfect song.  It is all good.  That is what this is all about.  I love all of the feedback and appreciate every comment.  So without further ado, here are Your Top 10 Songs About Bad Relationships.

1. Bon Jovi / You Give Love A Bad Name - Sometimes she just ain't what she seems.

"An angel's smile is what you sell
You promise me heaven, then put me through hell
Chains of love got a hold on me
When passion's a prison, you can't break free"

We've all been there with this one.  You just never know what is always behind that smile.  That includes Jon Bon Jovi.  I apologize for the following video.



2. Kool Moe Dee / Go See The Doctor - It's the gift that keeps on giving.

"The poontang was dope and you know that I rocked her
But three days later, go see the doctor
I rocked her to the left, rocked her to the right
She felt so good, hugged me so tight
I said "Good night"
Three days later...
Woke up fussing, yelling and cussing
Drip drip dripping and puss puss pussing
I went to the bathroom and said "Mama mia!"
I'm a kill that girl next time I see her"

So much for leaving something to the imagination Kool Moe Dee.  I am fortunate enough to have never had an STD.  Not everyone can say that.



3. Beastie Boys / She's Crafty - What is it that she really wants from you?

"The girl is crafty - she knows all the moves
I started playing records - she knew all the grooves
He thought she was a thief - and D. was right
But I just figured she'd spend the night
When I woke up late in the afternoon
She had taken all the things from inside his room
I found myself naked in the middle of the floor
She had taken the bed and the chest of drawers"

Playing the sex card or the possibility of sex card just to clean house.  There is just something so wrong and so admirable about that at the same time...lol.





4. Aerosmith / Janie's Got A Gun - Ewwww.  Just Ewwwww.

"What did her daddy do?
What did he put you through?
They said when Janie was arrested
they found him underneath a train
But man, he had it comin' Now that Janie's got a gun
she ain't never gonna be the same."

Well.  He deserved it.

5. Carrie Underwood / Before He Cheats - Not only is this an ultimate bad relationship song but it's an ultimate revenge song.

"That I dug my key into the side
of his pretty little souped up 4 wheel drive,
carved my name into his leather seats...
I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights,
slashed a hole in all 4 tires...
Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats."

That is what he gets for cheating...and having a nice truck.

6. Eels / A line in the dirt - You get to the point where you have to stand up for yourself.

"She locked herself in the bathroom again
So I've been shutting down the lights
And I don't know if I'll ever go back again
I'm drivin' straight into the night

I drew a line into the dirt
And dared her to step right across it
And she did"

Before you draw that line you have to ask yourself is it them or is it you.



7. Butch Walker / The Best Thing That You Never Had - Is it you or is it you?

"When you act like nothing ever happened
I feel like I should feel bad
But I can't like someone who thought
They're the only one that mattered
While my heart got shattered like romantic roadkill
My heart is all splattered your ego got fatter
And I hope that you're flattered
Cause you broke this down
The best thing that you never had"

This one is for when you realize they are in a relationship with themselves.



8. Fiona Apple / Limp - It's the relationship version of Münchausen syndrome.

"If you need my shame to reclaim your pride
And when I think of it, my fingers turn to fists
I never did anything to you, man
But no matter what I try
You'll beat me with your bitter lies
So call me crazy, hold me down
Make me cry; got off now, baby-
It wont be long till you'll be
Lying limp in your own hand"

They need to break you down and build you up to build their self worth.  These are one of the worst.



9. Motley Crue / Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away) - When it just is time to end.

"That's alright, that's okay
We were walkin' through some youth
Smilin' through some pain
That's alright, let's turn the page
And remember what I say girl
And it goes this way

Girl, don't go away mad...
Girl, just go away"

When you have done it all and you know it's over.  Just accept it.  Move on.

10. A Perfect Circle / Passive - We are all guilty of Passive Aggressive Relationship Behavior.

"Go ahead and play dead
I know that you can hear this
Go ahead and play dead
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
You fucking disappoint me!

Passive aggressive bullshit"

You just need to get over yourself and give some respect.

Thank you all for your replies.  I love that you play along with me.

I will see you when the needle drops!
