LOVE songs you LOVE

If possible from your country or region.

Im melancholy ( most of finns are ) so this is my pick from my country.


translation

At night I went again to sleep to the balcony,
So he would be closer to me
I saw the sky from my bed, I began to wait,
That I could see a flying star
They say: if you notice somewhere a shooting star
Then you can wish for anything you want
For the night sky I whispered a request:
I hope it could wind soon

Ref.
Wind, blow there where's my sweetie
Play with his hair for a while
Tell him that I love, that I miss
Tell him that I'm still waiting for him

Yesterday the night was calm
but then
wind breathed and I got the feeling
That someone moved near to me
Touched my cheek
I felt the familiar hand on my skin

I didn't suspect anymore
I knew that I can
Fall asleep like a little child
We breath the same air
And we have the same ground under our feet

Ref.
Wind, blow there where's my sweetie
Play with his hair for a while
Tell him that I love, that I miss
Tell him that I'm still waiting for him

As a male, I feel out of place even replying to this post, but it touched me and made me think back many years to a time a fell in love with a beautiful red haired girl! Darla, if you happen to see this, I think of you to this day!

Here is the song that reminds me of her every time I hear it.......

It's bugging me, grating me
And twisting me around
Yeah I'm endlessly caving in
And turning inside out

'cause I want it now
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm breaking out
I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control

It's holding me, morphing me
And forcing me to strive
To be endlessly cold within
And dreaming I'm alive

'cause I want it now
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm not breaking down
I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control

And I want you now
I want you now
I'll feel my heart implode
And I'm breaking out
Escaping now
Feeling my faith erode

So romantic....

Here is my contribution from England:-

This song is my favourite love song. It is more about the emotion of love rather than the love for somebody. Enjoy. Im from Ireland and I'm trying to find my fvourite Irish love song, I can't remember the name but I will find it soon. Enjoy this masterpiece until then.


Whoops, sorry. Triy this link. [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozaLAy0XKeY]

Gonna take a run at this one, cause its such a timeless piece.
From Canada, the band Sheriff. No longer together, this song has got to be approaching 25 years.
Supposedly still in the Guinness Book of Records for holding a note the longest (at the end of the song)
Hope y'all enjoy

Rolling Stones starting out, its amazing how much their music has grown. This song was recorded before my birth and possibly my parents also listened this

Yep, and they toured bars extensively. There's a whole set of parents out there who danced close in a bar while they played live.
Thanks for your word on the tune! Its an old Canadian 'classic'.

I have a bad crazy love.. according to what some think love is I guess. One country of origin cant explain it. If I cant possess all of someone I simply dont want them. Sometimes I dont want them after I have all of them. Sometimes I only love them when I choose to. I know.. its not nice and all.. at least Im honest. It doesnt matter how honest you are with them.. they all think they are the one or can change you.. when its my nature that drew them in the first place. For anyone else.. Stranglehold by Nugent would be appropriate.

BUT

There is this one person though... for 2 decades he has intrigued me. Is that love? I have no idea.. but its as close as Im getting and am satisfied with it. He seems to be as well. We are one hell of a team.. so thats sufficient for me.

Kinda like this:








For most anyone else.. cept a very select few..





Conversely.. this song was not only played at our wedding reception, it was what he sang to me on one of our anniversaries.. I forget what one... I knew he was a twisty keeper. He cant sing worth a damn though...





Match made in heaven... or somewhere...

"Love You To Death"

In her place one hundred candles burning,
As salty sweat drips from her breast.

her hips move and I can feel what they're saying, swaying,
They say the beast inside of me's gonna get ya, get ya, get... yeah.

Yeah.

Black lipstick stains her glass of red wine,
I am your servant, may I light your cigarette?

Those lips smooth, yeah I can feel what you're saying, praying,
They say the beast inside of me's gonna get ya, get ya, get... yeah.

Yeah.

I beg to serve, your wish is my law,
Now close those eyes and let me love you to death.

Shall I prove I mean what I'm saying?
Begging,
I say the beast inside of me's gonna get ya, get ya, get.. yeah.

Let me love you to...
Let me love you to death.

To death.

Let me love you to...
Let me love you to death.

To death.

Am I good enough for you?
Am I good enough for you?
Am I?
For you?
Am I?
For you?

Am I good enough
For you?

A different kind of love song...

So i'm back to the velvet underground
back to the floor that i love
to a room with some lace
and paper flowers
back to the gypsy...that i was...
to the gypsy...that i was...

And it all comes down to you
well you know that it does, well...
lightning strikes...
maybe once...maybe twice...
oh....and it lights up the night....
and you see your gypsy.......
you see your gypsy....

To the gypsy......
that remains.....
she faces freedom......
with a little fear.....
well i have no fear....
i have only love.....
and if i was a child....
and the child was enough.....
enough for me to love....
enough to love......

She is dancing away from you now
she was just a wish
she was just....a wish
and her memory is all that
is left for you now
you see your gypsy.....
you see your gypsy.....

Lightning strikes...
maybe once...maybe twice....
and it all comes down to you
oooooo......oh....
well it all comes down to you....
lightning strikes...
maybe once....maybe twice....
oh...I still see your bright eyes......bright eyes...
and i've always loved you....
and it all comes down to you
it all comes down to you.....

This man tries to make his music and videos like they did in the 80's.

I know I post a lot of Mountain Goats songs, and I do not apologize. John Darnielle is amazing, you will not convince me otherwise.





If those aren't love songs, then I don't know what are. Enjoy.

Never heard of em.. Thanks for sharing.. I like it!!

reply to post by Advantage


Glad you liked it. Always happy to spread the gospel of TMG.

They have about 5 billion songs, be careful, if you get hooked, your significant other and friends will say "dude, stop singing the mountain goats!" EVERY DAY ALL DAY.
