A few days ago, I saw an article from NPR where they listed the 10 best love songs ever, so because it is Valentine's Day, I thought I'd ask some of my Friday Friends what their favorite love songs are. Not very many answered, I'm sorry to say, but out of those who did, there is a very wide range of what my friends see as "love songs".
Before I go show you what they like , I want to share one of mine.
It's not normally thought of as a love song --
AND, I am not a huge Ed Ames fan,
AND, I am not a huge Ed Ames fan,
BUT
the lyrics make me cry.
It kind of strikes a cord after 37 years of marriage, the last verse:
In only a moment we both will be old, we won't even notice the world growing cold.
And I've always liked this one too:
And here are some of my Friday Friends favorite love songs!
As NPR said:
Remember — one person's schmaltz is another person's walk down the aisle.
My friend Betty said this was her favorite love song --
(I agree with her. It's A GREAT love song)
Heather liked this one (it was her wedding song)
And my friend Hayley says:
Well, I'm not one to swoon, but I've always thought the most romantic songs were Faithfully by Journey and Sweet Child of Mine by Guns n Roses. Also Livin on a Prayer by Bon Jovi.
Can't resist a good rock power ballad. Then to get all the romance and crap out of my system I jam to I Don't Believe in Love by Queensryche or Love Stinks, the Joan Jett version. I would definitely not call myself a romantic.
hahahah--LOVE HER!
My fav sis in law?
(she's my fav today cuz she's the only one who answered me)
(oh, and because-- she's AWESOME!)
Meghan likes --

Wendy likes Bread. You can't go wrong with ANY love song from the 1970's!!
Emmie likes some KING GEORGE!

Gina picked a CLASSIC with this one
(meghan choose it in her list too)
My favorite Indy friend, Sally loves this one:
My daughter-in-law, Jessica, LOVES this song
and
Mitzi sent me 6 songs!
And she probably could have sent me more -- she's like me, too many to narrow it down.
I'm only choosing two tho--

Everyone knows I love oldies music best, so I will leave you with another of my favorite love songs
What's your favorite love song?
Happy Valentine's Day
