Ok, Little Hawk, I've decided (at least for the time being). These may not be love songs in the strictest sense seeing as how they have no words generally, but what the hell.

Love songs (music)-

Any classical music that was written for Romeo and Juliette.

Songs (pieces of music) that tug real hard at my heartstrings-

"The Lark Ascending" by Ralph Vaughan Williams.

What a lovely thread, Little Hawk. I'm going to have to spend some time thinking about it.

Now that we've had so many mention of various schlock and dreadfully bad songs (in whoever's opinion)...why not go the other way? Nominate the finest love song(s) you know. It can be romantic love, familial love, love of country, love of God, whatever...

What greater courage can there be but to love?...Even in the face of all hardship and misunderstanding.

I nominate:

"Lies" by Stan Rogers
"Every Grain of Sand" by Bob Dylan
"Sweet America" written by Barry Greenfield, recorded by Buffy Sainte-Marie
"The Wedding Song" by Buffy Sainte-Marie
"This Is Love" by Mary Chapin Carpenter
