Kevin Bacon Throws Together an ‘Anti-Valentine’s Day’ Playlist For Those Who Are Over It

The star has the perfect tunes for anyone without love this Valentine's Day.

Kevin Bacon is all about the music, and he often shares his talents and love of all types of tunes on social media, recommending great tracks to his followers. This week, Bacon shared a few anti-Valentine's Day songs for anyone out there not feeling the love this year.

The actor, who got his breakout role in 1984's classic musical Footloose, posted a video to social media for #MondayBlues, a segment in which he shares new additions to his Monday Blues Spotify playlist.

For Feb. 13, the theme was Valentine's Day, but not in the way you might expect. Turning the love-themed holiday on its head, Bacon added a few songs with a negative perspective on love and romance.

Introducing the video, Bacon said, "Hi folks. It's Kevin. I'm back for another edition of Monday Blues. You know what? Tomorrow...Valentine's Day. That's great. I'm happy for you if you're in love."

But he wanted to bring attention to everyone without love, continuing to say, "What happens if this day rolls around that everyone's parading their hearts and flowers and love in front of you, and you don't have love in your life? So this is a special Monday Blues edition for those people who are not in love. Maybe you lost it, maybe you never had it. Maybe you don't want it."

Bacon then featured three songs he recommended. The first was "Love Stinks" by the J. Geils Band, followed by "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right," by Bob Dylan, which he called "one of the greatest songs about the end of love ever written."

The last song introduced in the video was "I Hate Myself for Loving You" by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts." While listening to the last track, Bacon commented, "Joan Jett with a burner, man. The fabulous Joan Jett."

Bacon linked to the official Monday Blues playlist in his Instagram Stories. The Spotify playlist's bio reads, "Feeling tired? Feeling blue? Music is the medicine."

There are currently 291 tracks in the playlist, with Bacon adding more every week, so there is definitely a lot to listen to if you need some music to inspire you.

Bacon's followers love his music recommendations, with one person commenting, "You hit it out of the park with these ones Kevin! Love all of these!"

Another fan shared a personal story about how this week's Monday Blues segment was really helpful for them, writing, "Today, your Monday Blues really felt comforting. My mom died saturday, and I feel kind of lost. You and Kyra give me some kind of balance. Thank you.🙏🏼❤️."

Both Bacon and his wife, Kyra Sedgwick, are loved for their down-to-earth demeanor and how they often share small looks at their loving life together.

One fan-favorite thing the couple does is post moments singing together, often serenading the goats at their home.
