Non-traditional/weird love songs

[fredericks]

I'm sitting here struggling through my homework with my PC wired through my stereo and the last two songs that have played strike me as ? non-traditional songs about love. The first song was Kelly Price's take on Shirley Murdock's classic "As We Lay", a song about the morning after an adulterous liasion. Lovely stuff about messing up a marriage. Next was Anita Baker's "Fairy Tales", about a relationship that was anything but. Going through my playlist the only other song I find that sort of fits the criteria is The Toadies "Possum Kingdom", because that's just really screwed up. Oh, and AFI's "Silver and Cold" - vampire love song!

Anyone know any interesting non-traditional love songs they want to share? And no, Weird Al's "You Don't Love Me Anymore" does not count.

Hmm...I think Radiohead's "Exit Music for a Film" might fit. It is about two lovers attempting to run from robots and getting killed, after all.

You might like Regina if you haven't heard her music.......she's sorta like a cross between Tori, Bjork, and Fiona Apple. (she's the beauty in the icon)

I'm passing by the library today. I'll see if they have her album up on the shelves. Coolness. :)
