So, what's your favorite anti-love song?

I figured I'd start with the greatest of them all: One More Minute by Weird Al. And also the abolutely lovely rendition with Garfunkel and Oates.

Speaking of them, Self esteem is pretty great too.

All the examples I can think of involve people who aren't quite over it as Weird Al and Garfunkel and Oates are.

No one does anti-anything like Lily Allen:

Of course my favorite of hers has to be Alfie, her anti-brother rant. Now we all should know her brother. He's Alfie Allen, Theon Greyjoy on Game of Thrones:

That puppet even looks like him.
