*sings* Oh how I love to be inspired to make these odd topics from odd inspirations.

Before I wrote all this five minutes ago, there wasn't a single love song written by anyone I enjoyed. UNTIL! I came upon, by chance, a single random youtube search to find the song, McDonald's Girl.

The song was simply about a boy who met a girl who worked at McDonald's and fell in love with her. But what I love so much about the song is, that basically explains the kind of girl I'm attracted to. Normal and very down to earth. And for some reason I couldn't stop smiling listening to it.

So then, what about you?

FAILURE's 'Stuck On You.'

All I can think of with that name is Ray Stevens' "Stuck on you." Look it up.

Seriously, hmm... I've written a couple, but Chicago's "You're the Inspiration" is a pretty good one.

*counts off fingers*

Sanctus Real's "Alone"
The Goo Goo Dolls' "Iris"
Showbread's "Oh! Emetephobia."
Kids In The Way's "Phoenix With A Heartache"
Haste The Day's "The Perfect Night"
Vanessa Carlton's "A Thousand Miles"
subseven's "Hold On"

But I would have to say "Stay With You" by The Goo Goo Dolls is my current favorite.

The Cure - Love Song
The Sisters of Mercy - Torch
The Sisters of Mercy - Some Kind of Stranger
Lycia - Silver Silver

Last Kiss - J. Frank Wilson & The Cavaliers



Awesome song.

The Ocean, by Mae. That song is so pretty. XD

I think I'm out of touch with today's music scene... I don't recognize a single song anyone has posted. XD

Well, Last Kiss was from '62.

Far Away by Nickelback
Yours to Hold by Skillet
Tonight by FM Static
Revelation by The Wedding...

That's all I can think of right now...

Wow, most definitely 311 - Love song
I like it a little better than the one by Anberlin, but only a little. . .

hmm, second would be Sean Kingston's (I think) Beautiful Girls (laughs)

"Wish You Were Here" by Pink Floyd.. Its simply beautiful.

So Far Away From Me by Dire Straits is good also.

Although the best version of that song was recorded by Pearl Jam (ironically a band I dislike).

Dir en grey - Itoshisa ha Fuhai Nitsuki (not a happy love song, but love nonetheless)

"The Last Night" - Skillet
"Haley" - Needtobreathe
"I Pray For You" - Big & Rich
"Five Years to Write" - John Reuben
"Short Skirt/Long Jacket" - Cake

OK, so that last one was just a joke.

Pretty much everything of Mae's The Everglow and "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Ricky A.

All these songs are great! My favorite love songs, though, would have to be:

Magic ~ Colbie Cailat
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hzg0dowHgsM

More Than Life ~ Hillsong: United
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zL0ZlZHUb9o&mode=related&search=

Permanent ~ Colbie Cailat & Jason Reeves
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q24dAp6YT3Q&mode=related&search=

In This Life ~ Beatles

And those are just the few that I can think of right now!

Crotchduster - Let Me Into Starfish Land

(not for the easily offended....*cough*)

Heh. Mithrandir thinks he's out of touch. My favorite love song by a wide margin is "Standchen" (Serenade) by Franz Schubert.

If you need to have a more modern vintage, though, I love "Reunion" by Yoko Kanno. If you don't recognize it, that's because it's from her serious (concert hall) work, not her Anime or J-pop stuff.

hmm..

'May I Have This Dance' Copeland
'Paper Bag Princess' Hello Kelly
'Alone' Sanctus Real
'Video Store' FM Static
'Definitly Maybe' FM Static
'last Name' Radial Angel
'The Inevitables' Anberlin
'Chasing Cars' Snow Patrol

there's WAY more, but i'll spare all of you

Nothing at All - Allison Krauss and Union Station
Forever and Ever, Amen - Randy Travis
Check Yes or No - George Strait

My favorite song about God's love, and about the only song I know about parents love for their children:
Love Without End, Amen - George Strait

Wow, they're all country songs.

'Everything I Do' -Bryan Adams

"Time in a Bottle" ~ Jim Croce
"You May Be Right" ~ Billy Joel
And the one I'm going to write one of these days [hopefully before I graduate] that I will sing to the woman I marry ~ if such a woman exists, that is.
