[video id="288546"]10. Beyoncé - "Single Ladies"[/video]

How about "put a lid on it"! There's no faster way to wreck a relationship than putting too much pressure on someone.

[video id="19250"]9. Kylie Minogue - "Can't Get You Out of My Head"[/video]

If you're that obsessed with someone, it's time to find another hobby, pronto.

[video id="286945"]8. Katy Perry - "Hot 'n Cold"[/video]

Katy Perry dishes up a plate of hot mess in this 2008 hit. We think. Wait ... we can't make up our minds.

[video id="215337"]7. George Michael - "Father Figure"[/video]

Save your daddy issues for the therapist.

[video id="223342"]6. Death Cab for Cutie - "I Will Possess Your Heart"[/video]

Death Cab, you're not really emo! You're just like all the other jealous meatheads out there! We feel so betrayed by your messy hair and melancholy glances.

[video id="18131"]5. Sir Mix-A-Lot - "Baby Got Back"[/video]

While meant as a compliment to all "healthy-looking" women, some might take this 1992 song the wrong way.

[artist id="1076"]4. Garbage - "I Would Die for You"[/artist]

While we appreciate your, errr, loyalty, your intensity freaks us out.

[video id="9396"]3. Morrissey - "The More You Ignore Me, the Closer I Get"[/video]

Morrissey sends off super-stalkery vibes in this 1994 creepfest. Do you watch us with binoculars from the bushes, too?

[video id="56979"]2. Kanye West - "Gold Digger"[/video]

If you want to hook it up, don't insult someone -- albeit passive-aggressively.

[video id="61473"]1. James Blunt - "You're Beautiful"[/video]

You're an-noy-ing. You're an-noy-ing. You're an-noy-ing, it's true. James Blunt takes home the grand prize with this 2005 single. Congratulations!
