Favourite love song?

VEGANGELICA · 07-21-2011, 10:18 AM

Two love songs I like very much:

The Rolling Stones - "She's a Rainbow"
Beautiful.

The Rolling Stones - "Paint It Black"
A great song about the depression caused by the death of a loved-one.

Duncan Dhu: Esos ojos negros ("Those Dark Eyes").

"Esos ojos negros, ................................ Those dark eyes,
esos ojos negros ................................ those dark eyes,
no los quiero ver llorar; ................................ I don’t want to see them crying;
tan sólo quiero escuchar, dime ................................ I only want to listen, tell me
lo que quiero oír, dime ................................ what I want to hear, tell me
que vas a reír, dime... ................................ that you’re going to laugh, tell me...
dime ahora que duerme la ciudad. ................................ tell me now the town is asleep.

Hace ya algún tiempo, ................................ Since some time ago,
hace ya algún tiempo ................................ since some time ago
que tu voz parece ser ................................ your voice seems to be
una pluma y un papel que cuentan ................................ a pen and a paper that tell
que vas a volar en sueños, ................................ that you’re going to fly in dreams,
que serán tus ojos negros ................................ that your dark eyes will be
los que me iluminen al andar. ................................ those that light my way.

La lluvia cae sobre el suelo gris, ................................ The rain falls on the grey ground,
el tiempo pasa y no puedo reír; ................................ time passes and I can’t laugh;
la noche es larga, mi voz amarga; ................................ the night is long, my voice is bitter;
hoy he visto despertar el sol ................................ today I have seen the sun wake up
y tus pupilas brillarán. ................................ and your pupils will shine.
Pero espera, descuida, y ya verás, ................................ But wait, don’t worry, you’ll see,
los buenos tiempos volverán. ................................ the good times will return.
Pero espera, descuida, que ya vendrán, ................................ But wait, don’t worry, they’ll come,
la lluvia los devolverá. ................................ the rain will bring them back.

I saw a live performance of this song on TV and fell in love with it. The lyrics are a little dark maybe, but I love the ebb and flow of the music and the vocals move me.

My favorite one is take back my love by Enrique.

I'm sure it's been said, but "Here, There and Everywhere" by The Beatles is my choice.

I had never heard that song by The Beatles before, Topazchicken.

One of my favorite love songs is "I'd Love Just Once To See You" by The Beach Boys because it realistically describes the experience of loving someone. Instead of being a traditional love ballad that is a soaring, ethereal paean to the beloved, this song shows the meshing of love with everyday life. The lyrics don't have to say "I love you" because the sentiment is spoken primarily through the account of actions.

And it's a cute song, too,

as it describes how thoughts and emotions about the person interlace into your daily activities, filling them with the sweetness of appreciation, pleasant excitement, and hopeful longing to be with that person again and see her or him...entirely.
