top ten love songs of all time

Recommended Posts

...I really think those portray a very simple love, which is the best kind.

I was going to make a joke about the movie The Other Sister here, but I couldn't really come up with a good one. I encourage others to try in the stead of my failure.

Some have already been mentioned, but they're my favorites anyway:

 

Every Breath You Take - The Police (greatest song ever)

Um, that's not a love song, dude. That's a song about a stalker.

Dude, whatever it is, it's a ripoff of Puffy. I'd be pissed if I were him.

 

(EDIT: It was sarcasm. Please don't kill me.)

You're lucky... for a second there I was going to find out where you live and carve your heart out with an olive fork... until I saw that last part.

Top Ten Love Songs? I'm not even sure there are ten love songs that I even like...

 

 

1) "The Luckiest" by Ben Folds

 

2) "Stand Inside Your Love" by Smashing Pumpkins

 

3) "Telephone Line" by Electric Light Orchestra

 

4) "Do You Realize" by The Flaming Lips

 

5) "I Will Remember You" by Sarah McLachlin

 

6) "The Scientist" by Coldplay

 

7) "Hanging By a Moment" by Lifehouse

 

8) "Burning For You" by Blue Oyster Cult

 

9) "Falling For You" by Weezer

Yes, many of these are not really traditional love songs. It's just that your average love song infuriates the living piss out of me.

I wouldn't call NKOTB soul or RnB but they can sing well when in a range(same for J-Lo and Britney) and when they have a good song in front of them. They will make it sound very good. Other genres turn out good love songs as well, it is just that I wouldn't know many by name. Unless I got the tracklisting of Monster Ballads or something.

Springsteen's version of "Jersey Girl" has got to be near the top of my list.

 

Also, Gov't Mule's "Painted Silver Light" is a different style love song.

 

Losing My Religion by REM is also a love song that I like.

- "Heaven", Bryan Adams

I would also so with "Everything I Do (I Do It For You)," "Please Forgive Me," "Let's Make a Night To Remember" and "I'll Always Be Right There." There are probably a lot more, too.
