What Are Your Favorite Love Songs? Win a Copy of My EP.

Though I wrote "Room In Your Heart" especially to sing with Ema (whom you can hear on the EP), there was never any target for the sentiment of the song. It's one of very few love songs I've written without anyone in mind. It makes me wonder how many songs that we assume are written from this really personal, emotional place, are actually just bits of theater—characters that the singer is taking on for the duration of the song.

Then again, I think all love songs are about the people we've loved, even if we're not singing about them directly. When I sing along to my personal favorite love songs by other musicians, I'm always picturing someone in my mind, even though I know the song was written for someone I've never met. Here are ten love songs (in no particular order) that have gotten me through rough times:

1)    "Dinner at Eight" by Rufus Wainwright (actually about his father, but still counts)
2)    "The Light in the Piazza by Adam Guettel (from The Light in the Piazza, the musical)
3)    "Love Ridden" by Fiona Apple
4)    "Red Right Ankle" by The Decemberists
5)    "Waltz #2" by Elliott Smith
6)    "Sea of Love" by Tom Waits/Cat Power
7)    "Love Is Like A Bottle Of Gin" by The Magnetic Fields
8)    "In The Aeroplane Over The Sea" by Neutral Milk Hotel
9)    "The I Love You Song" by William Finn (From The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee)
10)    "There, There" by Radiohead

Anyone else have what it takes to create a top ten best love songs? I'll make it easier: Top five. One person who gives me a list will win a free copy of my EP. Try listening to it while in love!

For me this is easy. My favorite song is "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me". Originally done by Mel Carter (way back when), and a fine job he did also. It's also been done by one of my favorite singers, Gloria Estaban. I listen to it several times a week. Who can't relate to that overpowering feeling of falling in love that is so well described in the song.
I'm not making a list of ten, because as you can tell from my choice, I'm OLD and don't even know what an EP is, lol.

Tommy, went to your site, and I loved it. I had a little trouble getting to your music. On the music page, can you get right to a specific song, or did I miss something? Where is my technical genious grandson when I need him:)) Ellen B

You know in your one song that has the verse "Just drop off the key, Lee". I use to listen to that as a kid with sisters. We use to think they said Kayleen, not key, lee. Lol. Isn't that funny? That has alway stuck with me since the 70's. I have never forgotten the lryics. I get different versions of the song every so often and send to my sister. Espically my sister name Kayleen. Lol. I have to keep it going.

It will come as no surprise that the song I have as my ringtone on my cell for when my husband calls is "Oh Carol" by Neil Sedaka. LOL

1. I only have eyes for you
2. Will you love me tomorrow
3. Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
4. Pretty Woman -
5. Under the Boardwalk
6. Just the way you are - Joel
7. First Time Ever I Saw Your Face - Flack
8. Endless Love - Ross and Ritchie
9. Happy Together - Turtles
10. You Are So Beautiful - Joe Cocker
donna f. Jan 28, 2009, 4:12pm EST

2. When a Man Loves a Woman- Percy Sledge
3. Wonderful Tonight-Clapton

6. Good Morning Beautiful-Steve Holy

10. Shameless-Garth Brooks
C C. Jan 28, 2009, 4:49pm EST
1. In your eyes by Peter Gabriel
2. Open Arms by Journey
3.Run to you by Byran Adams
4.With orwithout you by U2
5.Time After Time by Cyndi Lauper
6. Lips of an Angel by Hinder
7.Heaven can Wait by Meatloaf
8. Goodbye Blue Sky by Pink Floyd
9.The Flame by Cheap Trick
10.Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin
my list is unique because some of these are not your classic love songs. But to me they are the best love songs since they represent times/ memories in my life when I was happily in love. The first time I slow danced with a boyfriend was to "Stairway to heaven". "Time After Time" represents a loving relationship that ended mutually. And the best lyric is in the song "In Your Eyes" "In your eyes I see the doorway to a thousand churches......."
Richard L. Jan 28, 2009, 5:25pm EST
Five is too few, so I will just pick the first top five in my head.

1. Layla by Derek and the Dominos
2. Maybe I'm Amazed by Paul McCartney
3. Unchained Melody by Righteous Brothers (like so many others I see!)
4. You are so Beautiful by Joe Cocker
5. Without You by Harry Nilsson


I just realized that the reason these flow to the surface first is the sheer emotion of each, the singer is singing his heart out without a care as to what anyone might think, as long as their love gets the message.
Susan Budig Jan 28, 2009, 5:31pm EST
I noticed a lot of Unchained Melody, too. Oddly, no one mentioned any Cajun but me. Or did I miss something?

darryl m. Jan 28, 2009, 5:50pm EST
my favorite song are TUPAC 'ALL EYES ON ME', 50 CENT' MANY MEN', JAY Z 'HARD KNOCK LIFE'
James C. Jan 28, 2009, 5:57pm EST
This elicited a laugh! Of the songs mentioned, unchained melody was the only one I would consider in such a listing. We are forgetting about some truly memorable loves= songs such as Believe me if All Those Endearing Young Charms, or Danny Boy don't get mentioned. Of course, Danny Boy is not between a boy and girl, but a father and son. Believe me if all those endearing young charms was probably the most powerful love song between a boy and girl ever written.

I may be old but I do like a lot of the modern authors. It's just that most don't compare that strongly. A few of Neil Diamond's would list in there well also, Sweet Caroline coming quickly to mind. Could I have this dance by Annie Murray is a very good one as well.

Such songs as You are so Beautiful are too focused on looks to be top love songs. Looks has little to do with love. But everyone has their own favorite and probably they reflect upbringing and times as much as the quality of teh songs!
1. "Broken Hearts R 4 @ssh+les" by Frank Zappa.
2. "Joy" by Harry Nillsen.
3. "Fake Plastic Trees" by Radiohead.

I LOVE love songs (I usually listen to the top 10 love songs on yahoo messenger when I am online) but the one that holds a special place in my heart is "Love Song" by 311....I bought the soundtrack to 50 First Dates just so that I could listen to that song over and over. LOVE IT!

I'm already on record as a Yes fan... so...
Onward by Yes - from the not very well received Tormato album, 1978.

But to be honest...

Forever and Ever - from my 2nd album - Virtual America, 2003 - www.cdbaby.com/rbs2
Source of Color - from my 4th album - Killing Time, 2004 - www.cdbaby.com/rbs3
I'm Going To Take Care of You - from my 3rd album - Woody, 2006 - www.cdbaby.com/rbs4

It may sound shamelessly self-promoting (and it is), but I do have a fondness for these songs. After all, I went to the bother to write, record, and publish them.

Closer: Nine Inch Nails. I like it direct. "officer and a Gentleman" songs annoy me. Ditto for Journey's "hope chest" lyric approach.

I Just Wanna Make Love to You: Willie Dixon. Once again, why beat around the bush? My band plays the Foghat version.

Heartbreaker: Led Zeppelin. This is the most anguished and tortured ode to womankind ever recorded. If it doesn't win, you all are into musical theater and American Idol.

Thank You: Led Zeppelin. You want "tender?" I;ll give you tender. "Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more."

Whole Lotta Love: Led Zeppelin. You want love? Stop screwing aound with masturbaters like Coldplay, Maroon 5, and The Cure. Put on a Zeppelin album, turn it up, and leave your door unlocked.
Richard L. Jan 29, 2009, 8:01am EST
Not sure what the person commenting on You are so Beautiful was saying, apparently doesn't know the words to the song...You are so beautiful...to me... (in other words, her beauty is all of her, and may not even BE looks). I did forget about Neil Diamond though....

Cathi H. Jan 29, 2009, 10:46pm EST
Funny; shows my age, but I don't know a single one of the songs in your list! I think my favorite love song didn't even have the word "love" in it--"Your Song" by Elton John. Most of mine would go back to my own dating days. long ago and far away: "Cherish" by The Association; "Longer Than" by Dan Fogelberg; "We've Only Just Begun" by The Carpenters; "Close to You" by the Carpenters; "Only the Beginning" by Chicago; "There is Love" by Noel Paul Stookey; "I Will Be Here" by Steven Curtis Chapman; "Love With Me" by Keith Green; and "I Cherish the Treasure" by Steve Green. Those are the ones that come to mind right now anyway.

You've proposed a challenging project for me, anyway. I'll have to think about what favored love songs have been in my life. For some reason, one of Barbra Streisand's songs from the early '70's has always strongly suggested the roller coaster emotions of love lost--"Stony End."
Stacey (Jesus is coming soon! ) U. Feb 6, 2009, 8:20pm EST
