Valentine's Day MusicWhether you have hearts over your head, an arrow in your butt, or you're clutching a Voodoo doll of your ex in your hand, Valentine's Day is upon us. For those of you dreading this day, don't worry... the anti-Valentine's Day playlist is for you. But for those who are in full-blown love, have a crush, want to be in love, etc., this love song playlist is for you. We love T-Swizzle as much as anyone else but for this love song playlist we decided to go with the not-so-obvious love songs. Some old, some newer, some quirky. All awesome.

The Lemon heads- The Outdoor Type O.K. Lying is bad. But a guy who lies about being the outdoor type to get the girl? We forgive you.

Modern English- I Melt With You He'll stop the world? Make a pilgrimage? MELT? Just for a girl? Swoon. Rachel Platten- 1000 Ships What would you do for love? Don't let that someone miss their cue... get your message through!

The White Stripes- We Are Gonna Be Friends Playground romance is adorable. Jack White is hot.

Peter Gabriel- In Your Eyes You really need to watch the movie "Say Anything" to get the full effect of this one but here is a teaser (wait for it....)

And if those are not enough to give you googly eyes, these should do the trick... Never Shout Never - Trouble Taylor Swift - Ours The Ready Set - Love Like Woe Dixie Chicks- Cowboy Take Me Away Mazzy Star - Fade Into You Deanna Carter-Strawberry Wine The Flaming Lips- When You Smile The Cure - Just Like Heaven Trisha Yearwood- She's in Love With the Boy The Sundays- Wild Horses  (Rolling Stones Cover) Kid Rock- Lonely Road of Faith Owl City- I'll Meet You There Neutral Milk Hotel- In an Aeroplane Over the Sea Pete Townsend- Let My Love Open the Door Outkast- Prototype

5 Dubstep Tunes for you

EXTRAS, MUSICKim & ChloeComment

With the artist, Skrillex, just being announced as a Best New Artist Grammy Nominee, Dubstep may have just gone from creeping its way from the underground scene to busting out full force. Originating in London in the 1990's, (doesn't most killer stuff originate in London?) Dubstep is the love child of Rap/Hip Hop and Techno. Artists such as Jay-Z, Rhianna, Kanye, and even Britney are playing around with this textural sound experience. Skrillex, Bassnectar, Modestep, Deadmau5 and Flux Pavillion are a great start for pure dubstep, but you can find virtually any song that has been given the dubstep treatment. Searching random song titles and "dubstep" on YouTube results in some very fun time-suckage. A couple of awesome "finds" are "Smells Like Teen Spirit Dubstep" and "Come Together Dubstep." Go forth and be Dubstep savvy, come Grammy time! Here are 5 songs to get you started... plus one just for fun. LMFAO - Part Rock Anthem (Arion Dubstep Remix)

DJ Fresh "Gold Dust" (Flux Pavillion Remix)

DeadMau5 "Ghosts N Stuff"

Modestep "Sunlight"

Skrillex "Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites"
