Passionate pinks and reds and whites. Chocolate kisses and sweet delights. Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and I’m pumped for yet another chance to share the things we love with the people we love. One of those things is music, so I asked some people for some “love songs” to share and why they liked them. So WT, what lovely tunes do we have in queue?
“Lovesong” by The Cure — Sophia A.
“Because it was written for his wife and they are still together after 37 years and it’s the Cure.”
“Breakeven” by The Script — Anonymous
“Vibes.”
“Congratulations” by Mac Miller — Anonymous
“Personal Favorite”
“Everlong” by Foo Fighters — Anonymous
“The vibes”
“Slipping Through My Fingers” by ABBA — Margherita Memoli
“Although it is not my favorite song, nevertheless it is full of love; a mother letting go of her beloved daughter. Every time I listen to it, I think about how my own mother was a girl, a young woman like me once, and how she has seen me grow from a seed in her belly into an independent person, capable of cooking for herself, voicing her opinions, and obtaining more knowledge. This fact alone is so beautiful it makes me afraid of the day I will have to let go of my own kin, a day so far away and yet it doesn’t feel too out of reach.”
“Venus” by Frankie Avalon — Abbey
“The old vibes and his voice.”
“Take Me to the Moon” by lovelytheband — Anonymous
“I’m not sure if it’s technically a love song, but it came to mind”
“About you” by The 1975 — Anonymous
“Kiss Me” by Sixpence None the Richer — Anonymous
“I Really Wanna Stay At Your House” by Rosa Walton — Ian Dobson
“Deep Song”
“Not Another Song About Love” Hollywood Ending — Brandon
“I love the approach this song takes when it comes to a love song. At the beginning of the song, the song tries to make it clear that it is not a song about love (if it wasn’t obvious through by the title) as the singer lists multiple problems in his romantic relationship. However, as it progresses the song questions if it is a love song as the singer admits that he does need his partner.”
“Free Bird” by skynyrd — Anonymous
“The Vibes”
“My Love Mine All Mine” by Mitski — Anonymous
“Love Story” by Taylor Swift — Anonymous
“It’s a sweet song and a lot of people know it.”
“Love” by Keyshia Cole — Anonymous
“Love by Keyshia Cole is a beautifully raw and emotional track that showcases her signature soulful vocals and heartfelt storytelling. The song’s poignant lyrics and stirring melody capture the toxic nature of love, making it deeply relatable. Cole’s delivery is both powerful and vulnerable, drawing listeners into her journey with every note.”
“Moon River” by Andy Williams — Anonymous
“I love the instrumental of it and it is a song me and my mom love to listen to in the car.”
