The choir I'm in is currently doing Summer Breeze by the Isley Brothers. I think it's a beautiful song about ordinary, everyday love - not soppy hearts and flowers romanticism.
Lazy Afternoon sung by Jackie Allen wonderfully sultry, summery arrangement both on YouTube.
AfternoonDelight - forget who by Oh Laurie? by Allesie (I Think) Young at Heart - Frank Sinatra As well another of the same title can’t remember who by though
I’m not into schmaltz or big ballads (although I do like Aerosmith - I don't want to miss a thing), but my favourite love song has to be Van Morrison - Bright Side of the Road.
Endless love Diana Ross &Lionel Ritchie. Without You Neilson Everyone’s a winner. Hot chocolate My first My last My Everything. Barry White Unchained Melody Righteous Brothers Footsteps in the Sand. Leona Lewis The power of Love Jennifer Rush
Many of Guy Garvey’s lyrics of Elbow songs are about love. My favourites are : Mirrorball, One Day Like This and The Bones of you.
From Mirrorball: I plant the kind of kiss That wouldn't wake a baby On the self-same face The wouldn't let me sleep
And the street is singing with my feet And dawn gives me a shadow I know to be taller All down to you dear Everything has changed
And we took the town to town last night We kissed like we invented it And now I know what every step is for To lead me to your door Know that while you sleep Everything has changed
God Only Knows - the BeachBoys .Someone mentioned West Side Story = I watched it online last night. Another song from there is One Hand One Heart. when they were acting getting properly married. Plus lots that others have mentioned.
