With the recent passing of Valentine’s Day, some of us are reminded of how single we really are. For some, this thought can make them feel free because they are not burdened by commitment. For others, however, it causes them to wallow in their own self-pity. Whichever type you are, or even if you fall in between, there is a song about being single for you. These are ten of the best songs for single people (10 being “worst” and 1 being “best”).
- 10. “The Wanderer” – Dion (For the independent man who doesn’t need a girl to be happy)
- 9.“Cold As Ice” – Foreigner (The song about everyone’s ex)
- 8. “i” – Kendrick Lamar (The only love you need is from yourself)
- 7. “All By Myself” – Céline Dion (When you want to hunker down with a pint of Ben and Jerry’s and have a good cry)
- 6. “With a Little Help From My Friends” – The Beatles (When the going gets tough, you can always rely on your friends to pick you up.)
- 5. “Surfin’” – Kid Cudi (You don’t need love to live and have fun.)
- 4. “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” – Green Day (Sometimes your relationships fall apart, but you’ll always have yourself.)
- 3. “Single Ladies” – Beyoncé (The anthem for women everywhere who don’t need a man)
- 2. “Go Your Own Way” – Fleetwood Mac (Sometimes splits are meant to happen, but it will turn out alright)
- 1. “Here I Go Again” – Whitesnake (Being single isn’t the worst thing, and it’s better than being with someone who doesn’t complete you)
