Here's a list of Don'ts which I plan to turn into a Mix Tape:
Don't Give Up - Basement Jaxx
I Just Don't Think I'll Ever Get Over You - Colin Hay
Don't - Dinosaur Jr
Papa Don't Take No Mess - James Brown
Don't Mess With My Man - Lucy Pearl
Don't You Worry About A Thing - Stevie Wonder
Don't Come Around Here No More - Tom Petty
Don't Want To Know - John Martyn
Don't Talk To Me About Love - Altered Images
Don't Ask Why - My Bloody Valentine
I Don't Care - Shakespeare's Sister
Any more?
Here are some of your suggestions:
Don't You Want Me Baby - the drama! The synths! The haircuts!
Don't Stop Me Now - Freddie when he was young and beautiful, sans moustache. Awww...
Love Don't Live Here Anymore - saddest breakup song ever, NOT by Madonna, Bedshaped, but by Rose Royce. Rose Norwalt is a proper soulful singer, unlike old sinewy bionic-arms She-Ra.
Don't Leave Me This Way - babeh...

Good work, everyone! Mix tape to follow. I might have to edit a bit or it'll be the longest in the world.
Tim, 'She don't use jelly'? Afraid to ask.
Stevious, I didn't know he made music. I looove him.
I think 'Don't Fight It, Feel It' by Primal Scream, and 'Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood' - Elvis Costello's version for preference.
'Don't Put Your Daughter On the Stage, Mrs Worthington' - Noel Coward.
If there's time.
Don't Stand So Close To Me - The Police

PS: I have Dont's by David Shrigley if you want it x
Thanks, ladies. I'll be over on Soulseek if you need me.
I know you've already got loads of suggestions, but as a musogeek I simply have to stick my oar in.
I Don't Wanna Grow Up - Tom Waits/The Ramones/Scarlett Johansson (The Ramones version is my favourite, but they're all good)
I Don't Want To Get Over You - The Magnetic Fields
I Don't Want To Have To Break Your Face - Talulah Gosh
Don't Close Your Eyes On Me - The Crimea (album free to download from thecrimea.net)
Great theme. I trust the cover will be a lolcat kitteh saying "Do Not Want!"
Talulah Gosh...
I didn't say Rose Royce because I didn't think you would be old enough to remember/know it. Was just being polite, don't ya know.
Bless your heart, Bedshaped. On my blog I'm forever 21. (Whereas in real life, I'm old enough to remember 'Don't Put Your Daughter On The Stage, Mrs Worthington' from the first time round. They don't make them like that anymore.)
Don't Give Up On us Baby - David Soul
on second thoughts, skip that one.
