Valentine’s Day holds many different meanings for different people, and because of that I have provided Her Campus BU readers with two playlists this week: one for the lovers and one for the haters of V-Day. Each playlist contains a mixture of modern songs, oldies, pop, rock, hip-hop…everything and anything you could want in a Valentine’s Day playlist.
 



Pro-Valentine’s Day Playlist
This playlist is for those of you who have a special someone to be with this Valentine’s Day. You love that person, and want to shout it from the rooftops… but instead I suggest you sing along to this love-filled playlist before your date arrives. Listen to these songs if you love V-Day with all of its kisses, cards, and candy.
