Love Song...
In honor of Valetine's Day, my top 10 favorite love songs...
10. "Dancing in the Dark" by Bruce Springsteen
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pk8VZgJkpeg
Strange, I know. But his voice and the sentiment are really romantic.
9. "You've Got A Way" by Shania Twain
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eEAP3Uo8a4
It's very calming and soothing and pretty. Now what the fuck is wrong with her makeup in the video?
8. "I Wanna Dance (With Somebody Who Loves Me)" by Whitney Houston
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n52CzPvwPQ0
Another "dance" song. Funny, 'cause I hate dancing. But when she sings, "Clock strikes upon the hour..." it makes me want to fall in love. Aww.
7. "Tonight and the Rest of My Life" by Nina Gordon
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiNf6uDhMac
There's a real yearning to this song. The Notebook used it in their commercials and tricked me into seeing that dumb movie.
6. "Chasing Cars" by Snow Patrol
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vSWGNqI-sI
"If I just lay here..." Love that line...
5. "I Believe in You and Me" by Whitney Houston
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0XiJE2Txzc
Try to forget all the bad American Idol auditions that butcher this song and you'll find a really nice song sung by Whitney when she wasn't cracked out.
4. "Come What May" by Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7l0O7nCgmI
This version I find to be a great love song... the version in the movie I find to be a great heartbreak song. Weird, huh? I love Ewan's vocals.
3. "Collide" by Howie Day
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTz7rhommHI
"The dawn is breaking, a light shining through..." I picure laying down in the back of a pickup truck in the middle of the desert and staring at the stars while listening to that.
2. "Come On" by Ben Jelen
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-v8dd1802U
This song makes me cry. In a good way. Baaaad video, though.
1. "Your Song" by Ewan McGregor
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Z7JSqGyyzI
Ignore the strange fan video which sets the song to Claire and Peter from "Heroes" (Gross, they play uncle and niece!). It's the big climax at the end that gets me.
