The l33t One
So, the other day I was going through the bajillion (Yes, I know it's not a word) CDs that Marco and I own and I came across a burnt one that wasn't labled. It had five "love" songs on it. When I asked Marco about it he said that an ex-girlfriend had burned it for him along time ago. This got me to thinking. If I were to burn a CD for someone to show them I loved them or even hated them, what five songs would I choose? And, what would other people choose? So, here's the question/quiz/whatever: Name five songs that you would burn for someone you loved and five you would burn for someone you hated. (Suprisingly, for me, choosing the love songs was harder than choosing the hate songs.)

Love Songs

1. All My Life - K-Ci & Jo Jo

2. Running - No Doubt

3. Twisted - Keith Sweat

4. Ride It (My Pony) - Ginuwine

5. I'm Real - Ja Rule f. Jennifer Lopez

Hate Songs

1. Special - Garbage

2. In The End - Linkin Park

3. I F'ing Hate You - Godsmack

4. Platypus - Green Day

5. Hallelujah - Rufus Wainwright
It was hard to narrow down the hate songs...but, eh...so, there's my list.
 
Hmmm Well I am a bit torn on how I should approach the hate songs. Songs I would give someone I hate would be specific to the person, for instance if the persons a person that loves country or classic rock, then R&B or hard core Rap, if they were a Homophobe then a copy of my love song list would work. If it was a list of songs I hate anything by black label Society would work something about every word in each song being "YEAH" or better yet "FU< + YEAH" . So I dunno.

My list that I was able to make
Love is on the Way -Saigon Kick
Glory Of Love -Peter Cetera
November Rain - Guns N' Roses
The Stalker Song ( Every Breath you take) - The Police
Listen to your heart - DHT
 
Awesome topic...

Love:
Metallica - Nothing Else Matters
Evanescence - Bring Me To Life
Nine Inch Nails - Closer
3 Doors Down - Kryptonite
Linkin Park - In the End

Hate:
Breaking Benjamin - Simple Design
Nickelback - Just For
Limp Bizkit - Break Stuff
Godsmack - Go Away
Linkin Park - In the End

Yes, In the End is listed for both.... They say the line between love and hate is the thinnest line there is. This song straddles that line for me.
 
I tried to keep the limit down, but if I had my way, there would be plenty more hate songs than love songs. I think it's easier to hate someone than it is to love them anyway.
 
I'm a bit of an odd duck. The love songs would pretty much be based on who I'm giving them to, but the songs to people I don't like (I don't hate anybody, so we'll just go with dislike) would be really annoying ones, lke the Bumblebee Tuna Song, Goodship Lollipop, Any song ever sung by Lambchop, The Power Rangers Geo theme song, and one really long high pitched squeel that change octaves every 15 seconds just enough to where you couldn't ignore it. It would have to last for a minimum of 20 minutes.
 
Oooooh, I like this thread! Mine would be;

Love
Demolition Lovers - My Chemical Romance
Don't Go Away - Oasis
Amie - Damien Rice
I Caught Fire - The Used
France - The Libertines

Hate
Did You Miss Me? - The Cooper Temple Clause
Bang Bang, You're Dead - Dirty Pretty Things
Goodnight Goodnight - Hot Hot Heat
What A Waster - The Libertines
On Top Of Your Head - The Seahorses.

And that was a real struggle, narrowing it down to just those ten!

Hmmm...Ok, here's my list. I upped the ante to 6 songs. I was sooooo tempted to bunch of R&B love songs up here (if you got a girl that's a sucker for easy listening romantic stuff, "I'll Make Love To You" by Boys II Men or "Let Me Love You" by Mario will get you laid. It's almost a given.), but I decided to take the alt genre and turn it on it's ear. Also, I added a couple of categories to add a few honorable mentions that I didn't want left out.

1. Such Great Heights - Iron & Wine
2. Hands Down - Dashboard Confessional
3. I Will Follow You Into The Dark - Deathcab for Cutie

1. On Your Way Down - Stabbing Westward
2. With This Knife - Smile Empty Soul
3. There's a Good Reason These Tables Are Numbered... - Panic! at the Disco
4. Go Away - Godsmack (Sj nailed it. Probably one of the most hateful songs)
5. Rocks Tonic Juice Magic - Saves the Day
6. Beast And The Harlot - Avenged Sevenfold

"Omigod, you broke my heart!" songs (love's death and hate's birth)
1. Prelude 12/21 - AFI
2. Screaming Infidelities - Dashboard Confessional
3. Where'd You Go - Fort Minor
4. My<DSMBR - Linkin Park
