Gobias Industries Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I think some obvious selections have been overlooked... the Beatles - She Loves Youthe Beatles - I Want to Hold Your Handthe Beatles - All My Lovingthe Beatles - Hey Jude or basically the 95% of the Beatles catalog that is pure awesome love song.

redpillbox Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Perhaps my favorite Bob Dylan song: Mama, You Been On My Mind Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flatAn' cov'rin' the crossroads I'm standing at,Or maybe it's the weather or something like that,But mama, you been on my mind. I don't mean trouble, please don't put me down or get upset,I am not pleadin' or sayin', "I can't forget."I do not walk the floor bowed down an' bent, but yet,Mama, you been on my mind. Even though my mind is hazy an' my thoughts they might be narrow,Where you been don't bother me nor bring me down in sorrow.It don't even matter to me where you're wakin' up tomorrow,But mama, you're just on my mind. I am not askin' you to say words like "yes" or "no,"Please understand me, I got no place for you t' go.I'm just breathin' to myself, pretendin' not that I don't know,Mama, you been on my mind. When you wake up in the mornin', baby, look inside your mirror.You know I won't be next to you, you know I won't be near.I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clearAs someone who has had you on his mind. It's the desperate side of love. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mastershake Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 lots of good suggestions so far... i think no one mentioned derek and the dominos - layla and other assorted love songs. that entire album is basically about eric clapton's love of george harrison's wife.
