Listening to Love Songs

[lavender]

What are your favorite love songs? The ones that make you smile, make you reminiscent, melancholy, or can bring you to tears?

There is one song that stands above the rest, in my mind.

In Your Eyes - Peter Gabriel.

After this song there are many, include DePeche Mode's Somebody

Bread, Todd Rundgren, Johnny Hartman.

I have found over the years, that listening to love songs can cause the male of the species to do strange and sometimes stupid things. Therefore, I try to stay away from love songs and stick to the more mundane heavy-metal or acid rock. Tends to keep this ol guy out of trouble.


But...'endless love' does stir something in me for some strange reason.

Amazed by lonestar

I love that one. Also, "Already There" by Lonestar. I could listen to them all day long.

 

[Xander]

"More than words" - Extreme

"From this Moment" - Shania Twain.

 

[lobito]

I'm not so sure missing you is an actual love song, when he says "I AIN'T missing you at all". Could just be me, but it's a great song anyway...

I was partial for a long time to "When I think of you" by Journey, but my alltime favorite song is "Faithfully", also by Journey. Yeah I like Journey, so sue me.

Love song? Eeeewwww! The closest thing I'll listen to even remotely resembling a love song is "Control" by Puddle of Mudd...
Now THAT'S a love song!

"I love the way you look at me
I love the way you smack my ass
I love the dirty things you do
When I have control of you"

Yeaaaaaah Baby!
