Side A
Artist	Song
weezer	i just threw out the love of my dreams
the candy butchers	love's long sleep
the dismemberment plan	the love war
they might be giants	sapphire bullets of pure love
violent femmes	prove my love
the supremes	you can't hurry love
the posies	love letter boxes
the cure	lovesong
big star	i'm in love with a girl
the pajama game (original cast)	i'm not at all in love
lou reed	you'll know you were loved
bright eyes	falling out of love at this volume
dan bern	never fall in love
moxy fruvous	fell in love
tom waits	i hope you don't fall in love with me
new order	bizarre love triangle
Side B
Artist	Song	Buy
tommy james and the shondells	crimson and clover
weezer	falling for you
the magnetic fields	absolutely cuckoo
the candy butchers	cupid complained to venus
josie and the pussycats	pretend to be nice
cake	friend is a four letter word
deep blue something	breakfast at tiffany's
barenaked ladies	stomach vs. heart
garbage	cup of coffee
they might be giants	another first kiss
beulah	if we can land a man on the moon...
matthew sweet	girlfriend
spoon	anything you want
OK Go	kiss me, son of god (tmbg cover)
the wonders	that thing you do

Comment:

for my best friend. i don't hate valentine's day, even being terminally single-- but i wanted to make a tape for the occasion that wouldn't necessarily inspire suicidal urges in the unattached. side one is all songs with the word "love" in the title that aren't precisely what you'd call love songs. and side two is, well, everything else. there are as many songs that i had to cut as there are actually appearing here... volume two next year, perhaps?
(also, the beulah song is quite possibly the most frequently appearing song on this site, but she's never heard it so she's getting it).
