Songs That Are Anything But Love Songs

Songs that don't feature lyrics about falling in or out of love. From political comments to motivational messages, it's a love-free zone.

There's not a hint of falling in love or heartbreak tonight on a playlist that features anything but love songs. It could be a chance to Take that Job and Shove It, a comment on the environment from the Osmonds and Crazy Horses or maybe a chance to give yourself some motivation with help from Heather Small.
