Just discussing on the Death Cab for Cutie board, how great a song "Passenger Seat" is.... a really simple heartfelt, poignant song that endures in my memory...

Awww that is so beautiful. I would love to dance with someone I love to that song. But I have to say this song is gorgeous and heart melting:

This ones for you, dac. Haha.

No, but really. It is one of my favourite love songs.

Ray gets me every time:

Two of my favourites:

"Slender bride, your beauty shines from you
And forever more, I'll be on your side for sure".


Good line in this song: "I dont believe in may things, But in you I do"

these are my two favorites at the moment

"I can't tell one from the other - Did I find you or did you find me?"

That line encompasses everything it means to be in love, I think

Too many!

Not a love song, but a whole album.... 16 Lovers Lane by the Go Betweens.... pretty much writes and reads out the book of love in ten short tracks and forty two minutes.... I love this album.

Madonna - Take A Bow

I always thought this song was so pretty and the lyrics were perfect. I can listen to it and never get tired.

I'm in a Cure mood today and remembered that I have an album of them doing their tracks acoustic so what better than this bit of class?

:thumb:

I also always thought Close to Me was a really great, atypical love song too.

The Love We Had Stays On My Mind - The Dells,

I know I am biased as a seriously huge REM fan, but I have always loved "Be Mine" by REM from the New Adventures in Hi Fi album.... just a sweet quirky in places, but well written love song...

New favorites. Thanks for posting them.
I don't think I can understand love, so deciding a favorite would be stupid.

A few favourites that spring to mind. Stop me if I've posted these before...

I love Glycerine by Bush, and Peaceful easy feeling by the Eagles. Old school, I know, but their lyrics are more unique than a lot of modern day love songs.

My all-time favorite love song is "You Belong to Me" by Jo Stafford :) It is SOOOO pretty, and her voice is just amazing.

"Your Own Special Way" by Genesis is its own cryptic little love tale,b which I enjoy immensely.

Some of Neil Finn's love songs are just amazing and otherworldly wonderful... I am thinking of such stellar tracks as Fall At Your Feet, Message to My Girl, Private Universe, Try Whistling This.... and the list just goes on...

my love

Just got listening to "You're So Great" by Blur and it struck me, what wonderfully subtle great love song, its quite gorgeous in the same way REM's "Be Mine" is lyrically... although both songs are markedly different musically...

Way Back into Love

At Last - Etta James

mine is

Leona Lewis-Bleeding love

Lady Helen by Devin Townsend comes to mind as a gorgeous love song with a really moving melody... its a fave of mine at the moment...

This one. YouTube - Dire Straits - Tunnel of Love Music Video

Hey! What a great song... always loved that one... takes me back to riding to school in my parents car listening to my favorite Dire Straits compilation tape...

:afro:Nothing Else Matters by Tallica :ar_15s:

ohhhh toughy.
ill have to think about this.

Another one of my faves... Song for a Sleepwalker by Something for Kate..... great tune!

Was just listening to this uber-cool song again, and it reminded me of this thread :love:

Simple. Loving. Cute.

:love:I haint sceered to say, "This really is a thread for me." I have a passion for putting slow jamz together. Thanx, jackhammer. Even though you seem like you're kicking yourself for starting it.

Yes. Great tune. I discovered this tune from the High Fidelity soundtrack which is, coincedentally, is a great love "movie". One of my "top 5" (if you've ever seen the flick). Highly reccommended.

Bob Dylan - The Man in Me

Satchel, this was such a magnificent song (and artist), I can't even begin to desribe. Thanx for the turn-on to RL.

I have to shout out Jon B's album Cool.Relax. Which is more of a bedroom groove. That's a thread I'd love to see. (Sorry. Ladies man.;))

But of all my faves, I'd have to say just about ANYTHING from Sade. If her voice and the bands groove don't move you, your a lost cause in the game of love. If I had to pick just one, it'd be Cherish the Day(maybe).

Oh wow. Sade. It's been a while.

I have a huge soft spot for a lot of Sades music even though everything screams at me to hate it. Cherish The Day is a fantastic song. The bassline on Never As Good As The First Time is one of my favourites too.

Pfft. Completely pass my song, Lee.

It's fine. I won't be upset or anything.....

My humble apologies. I did listen to it but it's a little too 'twee' for my tastes :(
