Who sings the greatest love songs, men or women? Give examples.
- i think this really depends on the sexes...in regards to the sound. i would assume males prefer fem and females prefer males... only because they are naturally attracted to the sound of their voice. as far as lyrics go, i find women sing with more vigor when its in regards to break up songs [rarely hear break up songs from men] and men seem to sing with more depth when it comes to love. i derno i melt more hearing a man sing a love song.
Which song do you think is the greatest love song of all?
- i dunno i have a few faves...a couple that has popped into my head at the mmoment is... that hayes song- wanted, luther vandross- i'd rather, brian mcknight- the only one for me
Do you and your S.O have 'our song'? Btw, im curious, how do couples come to that decision? Lol. Weirdos.
i did with one ex,not with the others. it was undeclared, but we both knew it was ours. elvis presley- i cant help falling in love with you.
i guess you look at the situation and its importance. mine just happened to be playing that song at the moment, and that moment just happens to be one of my most cherished moments. i guess its all about symbolism


i agree with your first paragraph & women do love their breakup songs. I wonder why. Whats your favourite breakup song? Dont tell me Adele, please

It's gonna take a lot to drive me away from yoooooouuuu !
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever doooooooo !
I bless the rains down in Africa...
....Gonna take some time to do the things we never have



i know this song, but i neve knew the lyrics went like that. Niiice. Its funny how we sometimes make up our own lyrics to a song or mishear whats said until you google it up & find out how wrong you sang it before lol.

I feel like women put more heart into love songs whereas with men I feel there's always a sexual
undertone to the lyrics. Women just sing about the feeling and the emotion straight up no innuendos
but of course this is not all the time but that's just what I think.

I'm not sure why but I prefer female vocalist maybe it's cuz I always want to sing along to music
ans it's easier for me to sign along to female singer (same range)


fair enough. Please list your favourite love & breakup songssmile

oh and sarah barailles- gravity
her lyrics are touching
Set me free, leave me be. I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me.
You loved me 'cause I'm fragile.
When I thought that I was strong.
But you touch me for a little while and all my fragile strength is gone.
CHORUS
Set me free, leave me be. I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me.
I live here on my knees as I
Try to make you see that you're
Everything I think I need here on the ground.
But you're neither friend nor foe though I
Can't seem to let you go.
The one thing that I still know is that you're keeping me down
You're keeping me down, yeah, yeah, yeah
You're onto me, onto me and all over
Something always brings me back to you
It never takes too long



yupSad enough said

Honestly I don't pay attention lyrics very much and I don't like break up songs (too sad) lol.
However if I had to pick it'd be Adele and Oceanlab Come Home eep lol.

really? What do you do when ur broken hearted?
Btw, i love frank sinatra's im a fool to love you. Such a sad lovely song. I dont neccesarily see breakup songs as sad, more as a place to relate. Misery loves misery lol.

Well it's not the greatest love song I liked the solo.
< width="420" height="315" ="http:
I'm a fool to want you by Frank Sinatra
I'm a fool to want you x2
To want a love that can't be true
A love that's there for others too
I'm a fool to hold you
Such a fool to hold you
To seek a kiss, not mine alone
To share a kiss that devil has known
Time and time again I went away
But then would come a time when I would need you
And once again these words I'll have to say
Take me back, I love you
Pity me, I need you
I know it's wrong, it must be wrong
But right or wrong, I can't get along without you
(this is a song about Ava Gardner, his greatest love)

WC I just cry and cry and cry and yes I do listen to break up songs but usually by absolute accident.
I don't look for them or even save or anything. They have a tendency to work for a bit and then make me
more sad Sad. I hate being heart broken I try not to wallow in it too much it hurts waay too much.
Then to make it worse I dream about the people I have unrequited love for bleh I freakin hate it lol.


lol okay
Always by Atlantic Starr
Girl you are to me
All that a woman should be
And I dedicate my life to you
Always
A love like yours is rare
It must be sent from up above
And I know you'll stay this way
For always
And we both know
That our love will grow
And forever, it will be
You and me hey
Oh, you're like the sun
Chasing all the rain away
When you come around
You bring brighter days
You're the perfect one
For me, and you forever will be
And I will love you so
For always
Come to me my sweet
Let's go make a family
And they will bring us joy
For always
Oh, boy I love you so
I can't find enough ways to let you know
For always

I can't choose a favorite love song off the top of my head- I would have to really think about it. I think there are great love songs by both men and women.
The Scorp and I don't have a song yet. We have very different musical tastes and we rarely listen to music together.
My song with the Gemini was "How sweet it is (to be loved by you)" by James Taylor. It was our wedding song. How did we pick it? I wanted a more non-traditional song to dance to, and it summed up how we felt about each other.
This is one of my favorite love songs. It has such a beautiful sentiment:

I love this quirky one- it was my ex Leo boyfriend's song:

I have too many favorites to actually pick just one but off the top of my head here goes:

Love Songs
< width="420" height="315" ="http:

Over time, I've been building my castle of love
Just for two, though you never knew you were my reason
I've gone much too far for you now to say
That I've got to throw my castle away
Over dreams, I have picked out a perfect come true
Though you never knew it was of you I've been dreaming
The sandman has come from too far away
For you to say come back some other day
And though you don't believe that they do
They do come true
For did my dreams
Come true when I looked at you
And maybe too, if you would believe
You too might be
Overjoyed, over loved, over me
Over hearts, I have painfully turned every stone
Just to find, I had found what I've searched to discover
I've come much too far for me now to find
The love that I've sought can never be mine
And though you don't believe that they do
They do come true
For did my dreams
Come true when I looked at you
And maybe too, if you would believe
You too might be
Overjoyed, over loved, over me

[Chris:]
Weak
I have been crying and crying for weeks
How'd I survive when I can barely speak
Barely eat
On my knees
[Keri:]
But that's the moment you came to me
I don't know what your love has done to me
Think I'm invincible I see
Through the me
I used to be
[Chorus:]
[Chris:]
You changed my whole life
[Keri:]
Don't know what your doing to me with your love
[Chris:]
I'm feeling all Super human
You did that to me
Super human heart beats in me
[Both:]
Nothing can stop me here with you, superhuman
Super human
[Chris:]
Super human
[Keri:]
Super human
[Chris:]
Strong
Since I've been flying and righting the wrongs
Feels almost like i had it all along
I can see tomorrow
[Keri:]
But every problem is gone because
I flew everywhere with love inside of me
It's unbelievable to see
How love could set me free
[Chorus:]
[Both:]
You changed my whole life
Don't know what your doing to me with your love
I'm feeling all Super human
You did that to me
Super human heart beats in me
Nothing can stop
^^love it! I was playing it just this morning.
