This is so great - thanks ladies for all the great ideas. I have been compiling my fav songs for a long time, I am such a dork - I get emotional listening to these all the time.

 

Some of my fav love songs (besides a bunch that others have mentioned)

Old 97s - Question

Joshua Radin - I'd Rather be with you

Qiuetdrive - Time after Time (Cover of Cindy L)

Sam Roberts - Uprising Down Under

Beach Boys - God Only Knows

Plain White Ts - 1.2.3.4

Ingrid Michaelson - The Way I am

Sarah Harmer - Open Window

 

There are lots of other songs I love, that's all I can think of for now . Keep the ideas coming - its fun to listen to new (to me) songs!

[~Crista-Lee~]

The Pogues - Love You Til The End

Adele - Make You Feel My Love

Jack Johnson - Angel (My FI plays this for me on his guitar and sings! It melts my heart every time!)
