“Cruel to be Kind” by Nick Lowe
“Cruel to be Kind” by Nick Lowe is also one of the best songs you probably know, especially if you are the ’80s or ’90s kid. It was performed in the classic film known as 10 Things I Hate About You, and it was originally released in 1979. It managed to reach number 12 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and it made Lowe a one-hit-wonder as a result which is why we simply had to put in on this list.
