"Moving On"
I'm recently single, So I was already hitting the break up songs when I found this contest and my inner monologue was like "ummmmmm YAS Queen"!!! I like to think that I have several different sides to myself (as do most Queens) so here's a sample of what them sides be jamming to these days…

The Lack of Love Lasts Longer than Just Valentine's Day
Anti-Valentine's Day Playlist Valentine's Day is a sore subject for a lot of people, both single and in relationships. However, love, or the lack of it, isn't just subjected to this holiday. While a commercialized holiday about love doesn't help the situation, there is often an underlying issue or heartbreak that many are unable to heal from. The journey of my playlist will take you through learning and acknowleding our need for self-love and the personal lessons I've learned during my journey to finding it.

Dear Covid-19, Happy Valentine's Day (2021's Anti-V-Day Playlist)
This year one relationship we’ve all gotten into is one that none of us anticipated - intimacy with pain, sadness, worry, grief - with Covid-19. A year in, now, and none of us are untouched.

Anti-Valentine's Day OST
Is it sad that when I saw this challenge pop up, I already had a playlist ready to go to be posted? Valentine’s Day is a day I’ve never really cared about. Not in an edgy, anti-consumerism way, but simply just because it’s a day that doesn’t really resonate with me. It’s definitely one of those Marmite types of days - you either love it and spend the day romantically with your partner, or you hate it and spend the day wallowing in self-pity and anguish like myself.

Five Stages of POP!
I’m 24, and this year will be my, well, 24th Valentine’s day single. I’ve never been one to sit around and mope while everyone else is smelling red roses in candlelight...maybe because I actually don’t like roses and conventional “romantic gestures” seem really boring and anticlimactic to me.

The Perfect Anti-Valentine Playlist - Bruce Springsteen on Shuffle
There was a time I was anti-Valentine and unromantic. A time long ago. Before I met my wife, she reads my articles so I need to be clear about this. I'm absolutely not like that now, no way. I'm so romantic and in love you wouldn't believe it.

The Badass Queen Playlist
So you might have seen my other playlist that was about boycotting Valentine's Day by focusing on yourself in a feel good way. Well, this playlist is all about showing your middle finger to the whole institution by finding power in your singledom. And whilst I know the guys have their own problems and pressures associated with this dreaded day, this one goes out specifically to my ladies. To remind you that YOU are the main character. YOU are the badass queen of your kingdom.

14 Myth-Busting Anti-Valentine's Day Musical Anthems

The Lonely Hearts (and Proud to be!) Songs

Blast it while you’re doing your weekly self-care routine or while you’re driving in your car knowing that the only person’s agenda you need to subscribe to is your own. Here are some songs to get you started:

Putting The "Spin" In Spinster
In the first episode of the regency romance turned steamy Netflix hit Bridgerton, gossip-mongering narrator Lady Whistledown explains that the young women on London's marriage market fear "the dreadful, dismal condition known as the spinster."

Self love > Capitalism
1. Billie Eilish – 8 I’d bet that most people think that someone who’s Anti-Valentine’s Day must be a bitter single young woman with a wide collection of plant babies and fur children. Or a guy who doesn’t want to be forced into romantic gestures on a specific day of the year. My truth is that I am a late twenty-year old woman who’s in a very happy and healthy monogamous marriage and I would consider myself Anti-Valentine’s Day!
