Gravity, Sara Bareilles. Still can't listen to that one due to personal associations with trying and failng to break up with KBD.
Since not being able to stay away from people is kind of my romantic life in a phrase, and I've been making a soundtrack for myself since first grade... I'm sure I'll have a lot more once I check my iTunes.
Cory Branan, Troublesome Girl
Joan Jett, I Hate Myself For Loving You
Adele must have a song or five that would fit.
Gravity is totally needed on the Blade soundtrack!
I have the Joan Jett too, so it is added.
I think Adele's whole "21" CD fits.
You don't have any Kelly Clarkson on there.
What about "Every Breath You Take"
What about "Every Breath You Take"
Little more stalker than what I was thinking for this, though I will always love the song.
Any particular Kelly Clarkson you had in mind?
shoot. I just looked over her top 10 and nothing quite fits.

She seems to spend more time kicking bad matches to the curb than getting hung up on them.
How about Sheena Easton's "Almost Over You"? (I rather like "Strut", which almost fits, but I think it finishes as a break-up song.)
I like the Easton--I shall have to add it.
I also added 2
I keep forgetting--Michael MacDonald
I love the way you lie--Eminmen (though that one is more destructive than I was originally thinking and may come off)
Some Sarah McLachlan options: "Stupid" and "Fallen" (though I think the latter isn't enough about the object of her affections).
What A Fool Believes--Doobie Brothers
I'm not sure this fits. The rest are "I can't stay away from you" songs (which, incidentally, was a song by the Miami Sound Machine that fits). "What a Fool Believes" is a third-person POV. Also, I don't think the man in the song believes that the woman is bad for him -- he just carries a torch for her and doesn't realize that she has moved on.
Maybe the Miracles, "You've Really Got a Hold on Me," or Lesley Gore, "Maybe I Know."

I see the point, and it definitely is a different POV, but I included it because it's a variation on the same basic theme, to my mind anyway, just seen from the outside.
Use me
is sort of the same--everyone else is telling him the woman is no good, but he doesn't care.
