In contrast to the "worst love songs of all time" theme from Friday, what are your best love songs? What worked for you on Valentine's Day? Build me a playlist.

Some of my favorite love songs (you can get extra points for YouTube links):

- Maps - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

- Into My Arms - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

- Skinny Love - Bon Iver

- Tessellate - Alt-J

- I'm On Fire - Bruce Springsteen

- You Wreck Me - Tom Petty

- River - Leon Bridges

- Wild Horses - Rolling Stones

- Strange Currencies - R.E.M.

- Rock You Like a Hurricane - Scorpions

Vision of Love by Mariah Carey is still her best song.

Something by The Beatles

True Love Waits - Radiohead


This is the version I heard on the Amnesiac tour (Chicago - Grant Park) and is still my favorite version.

I actually found video of it! Damn, recording technology has improved dramatically.

I gotta say, I don't think you have the best Bon Iver love song though ;)



There are SO many good ones - his voice is just amazing. And you're right, that one is definitely better.

Have you checked out Megafaun?

Vernon's old band mates...similar sound.

No! I wasn't aware of them - I'll go hunt them down! I'm currently making a playlist with everyone's suggestions. :)

Not exactly sure.
Ok, I think there would need to be different play lists. I did the more dancing and partying ones. I remember Lous lounge in clear lake would play Closer by NIN for a later slow song. I wouldn’t play that while I’m eating a meal with a woman but was a great buzzed grinder song.


I get the feeling people are doing candle light songs. I’m obviously doing more dance type ones.
