The Anti-Valentine's Day Jazz Cabaret with Louise Messenger
T0537950852
"Love Is All Around", "Baby Love", "Love Me Tender", "Crazy In Love" - even the ridiculous "Sea Of Love". The list of songs about love is long, and Valentine's Day is the climax where all that romance erupts into a frenzy of store-bought chocolates and overpriced flowers. But what about those of us who don't necessarily like celebrating the over-cooked-over-romantic-hallmark-time-of-the-year? What about those of us who like our songs more cynical, or dark. An anti-love song if you will?
