Here they are—The top songs all about dirty, rotten, cheating scoundrels. Thanks to all our Facebook fans and Twitter followers who wrote in with suggestions!
The Best “Don’t Bother Cheating” Song: Love the One You’re With by Stephen Stills. Very simple advice: If you can’t be with the one you love, honey/Love the one you’re with. If only everyone listened to this suggestion.
The Angriest Cheating Song: You Oughta Know by Alanis Morissette. After being cheated on by none other than Dave Coulier of Full House, Alanis writes one of the harshest, I-hope-you-rot-in-hell songs to date, to let the entire world know of her saga. “And every time I scratch my nails down someone else’s back I hope you feel it/Well can you feel it?” Oh yeah, Alanis, we can feel it.
Complete Denial Cheating Song: It Wasn’t Me by Shaggy. When his buddy is caught doing it on the bathroom floor, the counter, the sofa, and even on camera with another woman, Shaggy tells his buddy to just say, “It Wasn’t Me.” The odds of this advice working are right up there with Shaggy winning a Grammy.
The “I’m Leaving You” Cheating Song: These Boots Are Made for Walking by Nancy Sinatra. Anything written by the daughter of Frank Sinatra is bound to be good, but this single was especially great. Are you ready boots?/Start walkin’!
The “How-to-Screw-Your-Partner-Over-if-They’ve-Been-Cheating” Song: Hit Em Up Style (Oops!) by Blu Cantrell. Blu’s advice for getting cheated on? Take your man’s credit card and go on a ginormous shopping spree with your best friends. Who says money can’t buy happiness?
The “You Were Forewarned” Cheating Song: You Know I’m No Good by Amy Winehouse. If Amy Winehouse is one thing, it’s honest. She let her lover know she really sucks at fidelity in this song, it appears that they fell for it anyway. I told ya I was trouble/You know that I’m no good.

Shania Twain is way better than taylor swift when it comes to country music.;,,
I love the song Many Nights by Alrica
wow! Shania Twain is still one of the most beautiful country music artist today*.,
