Donna Summers - soft and sultry - I Love to Love You Baby!
If a woman sang that to me and then did it, what force of man or nature could could stop her from stealing my heart away.

Some of the songs you listed are break up songs or sad ones! Good list and mixture of genres.

Kill them f*/,er!

We want them as dead and boring as our "romance"!

And after the break up, getting back can be as horny as,,,,,,nothing is better than getting your true love back in your arms is there?

A lot of jazz and rock and well, nothing classical I guess?

I have seen Sting and a lot of others on the list too. I loved the love songs or REO Speedwagon a couple of weeks ago. And Styx was like a honeymoon of love songs too. Jackson Brown has some too. And Lenny Cohen. Too bad Youtube is not available.

Love songs change with each new love and every person can feel something different within a song that makes it mean something to them that another person may never feel! Just think of how a love song can spark a memory or an emotion with just the first few strands being played and if we are lucky enough...one day we are with someone and here a love song and suddenly everything has new meaning!

I saw you at midnight, in a dream that I had.
From nowhere, you stood there, and you seemed so sad.
And a vicious decision is drivin’ me mad.
Should I follow my head, or follow my heart?

You were different, indifferent, unbelievably cool.
I approached you, to show you, that I’m nobody’s fool.
And an error, caused terror, as I sensed your dare.
Should I follow my head, or follow my heart?

Should I follow my head, or follow my heart?
You’ve got the lead, baby I’ve got a start.
Should I follow my head?
Should I follow my heart?
Should I follow my head, or my heart?
Follow my heart.

Hope I get a chance to follow my heart some day!

And I did get to hear SPEED WAGON recently too. I saw a young lady there who was very cute but about half my age. Could a dream like that come true? My head says no, bnt I am a romatic at heart, but we rarely win the race!

Oh what would the world be without romantics?? I wish I could be half your age and do a few things over again! I think I would make sure I was right where I am in my life today but many years earlier!! Sexual freedom and sexual awareness being one of the big things I would have loved to have had back then along with a stronger will to do what I wanted and the bravery to walk the path I chose!

I bet there are a ton of love songs that talk about all of that!! Don't kill the romantics...they make life, love and happiness worth hoping for on the hard days!
I think "My Immortal" by Evanescence, "Interstate Love Song" by Stone Temple Pilots and "Brilliant Disguise" by Bruce Springsteen should be on the list.

My Immortal

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

Interstate Love Song

Waiting on a Sunday afternoon
For what I read between the lines,
Your lies.

Feelin' like a hand in rusted shame
So do you laugh or does it cry?
Reply?

Leavin' on a southern train
Only yesterday you lied,
Promises of what I seemed to be
Only watched the time go by,
All of these things you said to me.

Breathing is the hardest thing to do.
With all I've said and all that's dead for you,
You lied
Good bye

Leavin' on a southern train
Only yesterday you lied
Promises of what I seemed to be
Only watched the time go by,
All of these things I said to you.

Brilliant Disguise

I hold you in my arms as the band plays
What are those words whispered baby just as you turn away
I saw you last night out on the edge of town
I wanna read your mind and know just what Ive got in this new thing Ive found
So tell me what I see when I look in your eyes
Is that you baby or just a brilliant disguise

I heard somebody call your name from underneath our willow
I saw something tucked in shame underneath your pillow
Well Ive tried so hard baby but I just can't see
What a woman like you is doing with me
So tell me what I see when I look in your eyes
Is that you baby or just a brilliant disguise

Now look at me baby struggling to do everything right
And then it all falls apart when out go the lights
Im just a lonely pilgrim I walk this world in wealth
I want to know if it's you I don't trust cause I damn sure don't trust
Myself

Now you play the loving woman I'll play the faithful man
But just don't look too close into the palm of my hand
We stood at the alter the gypsy swore our future was right
But come the wee wee hours maybe baby the gypsy lied
So when you look at me you better look hard and look twice
Is that me baby or just a brilliant disguise

Tonight our bed is cold
Im lost in the darkness of our love
God have mercy on the man
Who doubts what he's sure of

Let's Get it On by Marvin Gaye
I Need A Lover by John Cougar Mellencamp
Something by The Beatles - Abbey Road 1969........Ol' Blue Eyes said it was the greatest love song and I agree with him.

My Love by Wings (Paul McCartney) - Red Rose Speedway 1973

Cuz' I broke the skies that shine above.

But I can't live, oh without you, love you, and it's hard to breath
when you're not near
But I can't lie here beside you, besides you,
cuz' you steal my soul when you leave
Set me free baby, set me free baby.

I need some one to hold me, wrap their arms and
embrace the air I breathe. Cuz' you were my shelter,
now the heart you hold is somebody else's baby
Now I can't love you baby if you don't,
but I stay in love, in love, with you.
Oh yes I do.

But I can't live, oh without you, love you,
and it's hard to breath when you're not near
But I can't lie here beside you, besides you,
cuz you steal my soul when you leave
Set me free baby, Oh set me free baby.

Don't you know that I can't, no I can't, live, oh without you,
love you, and it's hard to breath when you're not near
oh yes it is!
But I can't lie here beside you, besides you,
cuz you steal my soul when you leave
Set me free babe, set me free babe.

I am a romantic and it has nearly killed me a few times!

...thanks to all who have shared....for some reason, love is in the air for me today

LOVE IS IN THE AIR
TOM JONES, MARTY ROBBINS
Love is in the air everywhere I look around
love is in the air every sight and every sound
and I don't know if I'm being foolish
I don't know if I'm being wise
but it's something that I must believe in
and it's there when I look in your eyes.

Love is in the air, in the whisper of the trees,
love is in the air in the thunder of the sea,
and I don't know if I'm just dreaming,
I don't know if I feel safe,
but it's something that I must believe in
and it's there when I call out your name.

Love is in the air, love is in the air, oh, oh, oh, oh, uh,
uh, uh, uh.

Love is in the air, in the rising of the sun,
love is in the air, when the day is nearly done,
and I don't know if you are illusion,
don't know if I see truth,
but you are something that I must believe in,
and you are there when I reach out for you.

Love is in the air everywhere I look around
love is in the air every sight and every sound
and I don't know if I'm being foolish
I don't know if I'm being wise
but it's something that I must believe in
and it's there when I look in your eyes.

Love is in the air, love is in the air, oh, oh, oh, oh, uh,
uh, uh, uh.
