It’s that time of year again. Aisles are lined with heart shaped chocolates, flowers are flying off the shelves and couples holding hands are everywhere in sight. Valentine’s Day is here.
Though these reminders are great for couples, they usually just make those not in a relationship feel lonely. We don’t want to hate on Valentine’s Day, but for the singles out there, this holiday can be a bit of a drag.
Sometimes a good heartbreaking love song is just what is needed, and Valley is here to offer some relief! Embrace your inner Anti-Valentine by listening to these tunes on Valentine’s Day.
