Favorite love songs

Post by jchitty » Tue Jan 01, 2008 9:41 am

Okay, this might be a little sentimental and cheesy, hehe, but what are your favorite love songs (or just one if you prefer)....those songs which hold great memories for you or just take you to a higher place when you hear them?Mine is "Iris" by the Goo Goo Dolls.Anything by ZZ Top are my husband's favorite love songs.

Hey, Bob, Telaak, Kelysian, Chris and Ted.....some good stuff y'all listed....keep 'em comin'. BTW, there is nothing better than Mel Torme's version of "Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire'' (yeah, no love song, hehe)....I like it even better than Nat King Cole's version which is saying something.....both of them had velvet voices. And I just saw Pat Benatar's "We Belong" video not too long ago on VH1....ah, it brings back some memories.

Ted, another good one is "Love is a Battlefield." I still get a kick out of Pat Benatar's ' wiggling shoulder action in that one'......how she makes that guy get the hell out of the way in that video. Wow, Squiddy and LHMias just made me think of two songs I dearly love as well....."Natural Woman" and "At Last." Aretha and Etta were two of the best!Squiddy, yeah, I love Seal's "Prayer for the Dying"....that song was on the list of 'songs I never get tired of hearing.' Happy New Year to you too, LHMias.

My choices change with time, but one that made a big impression on me over the last few years was the song"Kissing you" by Des'ree.Used in "Romeo and Juliet"It has love and passion bursting out of it
It's been said that I have Murderous eyes.
