[Open Post] Valentine's Salutations



The annual commercialisation of our romantic affections is upon us once again! Rejoice! Consider this post your own personal valentine from moi. I won't be offended if you recoil a little at the notion of this, but know, I don't accept returns or backsies, so you will deal!

To those who wish to celebrate the day in a happy and joyous way, I leave Dolly Parton's upbeat take on being in love: Together You and I. Awww.


To those who wish to cry and focus on how they're probably going to die alone and lonely ( that won't happen!), I leave this beautiful, but insanely depressing, song by Antony And The Johnsons.


Feel free to leave love songs and notes in the comments below!

  1. Since Mariah wants this to be the song of valentines, might as well add the video for "you're mine" here

  2. Hey guys. I wrote a song that's pretty much anti-Valentine's. So, here it is. Tell me what you think, or don't. http://teaandvodka.tumblr.com/post/76630635056/its-valentines-day-and-im-already-sick-of-the

  3. Happy Valentines Day Everybody!!!

    Ironically, here is a STUNNING performance of Whitney Houston performing 'You Give Good Love' on Johnny Carson - February 14th 1985 (Valentines Day) - 29 years ago. A year later, she would be the sole possessor of the 'Largest-Selling Debut Album of all-time in the U.S' and the 'Best-Selling Album of 1986 (Globally)'.

  5. I was going to be all anti-valentine's day and post songs, but I'll be positive and say that my state has now legalized gay marriage. The first in the south to do so :)

  17. they were cool with it, I guess... It wasn't even that overwhelming, but I could tell some mini-homophobic statements. As long as I am happy, everything is okay :)

  25. Since I'm really young and quite a vainly curious type, can you define what you mean by "came out to my parents?" Sorry, I just don't get what you mean. :D

    ReplyDelete
  26. Sure, I told my parents that I am gay :) Btw how's your story going :D

  27. I think Ariana slurs her words when she sings which i find annoying but she does have a beautiful voice and can hit high notes here and there, but no way in comparison to 90's mariah carey with that wow factor. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqT_8f5vpw8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMmYCKlHuKM
