So I've become a compulsive playlist-maker. I know, I know, I'm so late on the bandwagon! As a matter of fact, the wagon is gone. It's just me and a push cart. Following the fading tread marks, yelling at everyone to just slow down already, I've almost caught up! Anywhoodle, here's a playlist of songs-about-love-that-aren't-necessarily-happy. A haphazard collection of guilty pleasures, personal treasures, mementos, etc. The order is kind of wonky, but it goes something like sad, super sad, angsty, a little longing, some emo, and then a little kiss-my-ass, I hate you (but still love you, but hate you, etc.). Hope you like it! Comment if you take, I guess. But don't feel obligated or anything. Because lurking is an art, really.
Warning: My playlists are usually obscenely long, due to my disdain for editing in general. Feel free to modify at will. Also feel free to ignore the commentary that my aforementioned disdain for editing keeps me from leaving out. I know everyone is not simply dying to know what I think about music, life, love, and assorted shenanigans.

EDIT: I've just been informed that some of the songs don't work. I'm sorry. Also I have little to no idea how to fix that. I'll try really hard.
EDIT AGAIN: I've fixed it? I think. Let me know if it still won't work.
