Crowded House / Neil Finn really knows how to write a great love song...

Whether it be proclaiming love and devotion in songs like Fall at Your feet, Something So Strong, Nails in My Feet and Distant Sun... or if he is singing about the anguish involved with love in songs like Better Be Home Soon, Don't Dream its Over, Private Universe, Fingers of Love and my personal favorite, Into Temptation...


Each is a little tour into the dark and light side of love and human relations, and the sense of yearing, and sometimes even desperation is all pervading.

Excellent songwriter indeed.

Richard Marx wrote some of the best love songs of the late 80's.

scottsy 01-25-2009 08:01 PM

He also sported a very fine Mullet...

Although it was not as great as the one Billy Ray Cyrus carried on top of his noggin...

Fingers Of Love is a magnificent track. I have a lot of time for Crowded House's music. Well crafted Guitar pop. Together Alone is probably my favourite album.

Isn't it just a great album, full of gems... its possibly the edgiest Crowded House album made... it's got alot of desperate sounding stuff, like Black and White Boy, Private Universe, Locked Out - yet its all tempered with some of Neil Finns most sublime ballads and despairing slowburns... Nails in my Feet, Fingers of Love, the title track and even Distant Sun...

Totally a highlight of the band's career.

i actually did like that song especially for the movie

kniff0311 03-10-2009 05:19 PM

but id have to pick " to be with you" mr big

ixtlan22 03-10-2009 05:35 PM

Hahahaha there are some awful songs on this page. But comically awful... and not that I have any authority to but I will forgive them. How's aboot "Julia" by The Beatles. That's one of the most beautiful love songs ever I think. Also "I Called You Back" by Bonnie Prince Billy.

"Everybody here wants you" by Jeff Buckley

Favorite love song; as follows,
 
Wembly, Candyskins. off the album- Fun?;)
Her's a song from me to you,
I hope you understand it.
I can't forget the day we met, I loved you oh so madly.
All the things i used to do,
I gave them up so Gladly.
Do you remember getting drunk,
on Uncle Derriks brandy?
We were sick, yea we were young'
I wanted you so badly.
it's 1966 again and a love as big as Wembley...Tell me.

Feign 03-10-2009 10:14 PM

Probably Unravel by Bjork, not that it's a happy love song, but it gets the job done.

As for more recent ones:

You Picked me - A fine frenzy, it's such a cliche happy love song, oh well haha
In the Lake - This will probably eventually take over Unravel, I just love it so much, but I have to see how it ages.

Yeah, I cried, but I was like 16 at the time.

Wednesay Morning 3am - Simon & Garfunkle...Beautiful

gotjuice 03-15-2009 09:44 PM

Sex Type Thing by Stone Temple Pilots.

Just kidding.

Seriously I would have to say right now it's probably The Blower's Daughter by Damien Rice.

This I Promise You by *Nsync :)

SATCHMO 03-19-2009 10:50 PM

Winter Birds-Ray Lamontagne
I just spent 6 months living in the tiny Maine town where he's from. The song is so eerily beautiful and really echos the vibe of the town in winter.

DecodeTheRiot 03-20-2009 08:45 PM

My favorite is Remembering Sunday from All Time Low.

kniff0311 03-22-2009 12:04 PM

mr. big - to be with you

I am a big sucker for One by U2, Be Mine by REM and The Scientist by Coldplay... three fairly great love songs, if only in my own humble opinion!

scottsy 03-28-2009 09:00 AM

Ahh, the love song about not really being in love but actually being in love... love is so confusing and weird!

barbarella 03-29-2009 12:40 PM

So different to the rest of the stuff that The Vengaboys made, and so much better too. They genuinely had talent!
This is how they said Goodbye.


scottsy 03-29-2009 03:13 PM

So at the risk of being pooped on for liking his music... Moby actually has made a few good, tender love songs... "At Least We Were Together" from his 18 album was one song my wife and I used to cherish when we lived halfway across the world from each other before we married and I moved from Australia to the US.

Dieselboy 04-02-2009 10:05 PM

If this is just singing about love then a couple I'd pick would be:

Van Morrison - Brown Eyed Girl
and
Aerosmith - Dueces are Wild

If its to 'get busy to' I'd probably pick Massive Attack - Angel

scottsy 04-02-2009 10:38 PM

Brown - eyed girl... what a great song! I connec t with that song so much, having a wife with gorgeous brown eyes and a daughter who has inherited them, too...

barbarella 04-03-2009 06:41 AM

This Should Be Up There With The Best Of Them. The Lyrics Are Wonderful, So Thoughtful.

Nice one! The whole album is great, too. Have you actually made love to your old lady to it? I'd say it's a must-try.

Also by Lovage,

Eric Clapton - Bell Bottom Blues.
