Time for a line cast into the LJ waves!
What is the most romantic song ever invented in life?
I don’t mean “which Carpenters song makes you gag most?” Rather, which song means love to you? What little piece of music is intimately wrapped up in your heart?
Accompanying mp3s are appreciated but not required.
My vote is always for “This Must be the Place (Naive Melody)” by the Talking Heads.
Tom Waits’ version of Somewhere. But specifically that version, or it doesn’t work for me.
“Lullaby” – The Cure
Hah.
Besame Mucho.
Sara by Fleetwood Mac
Hi there!
It’s almost cliche by now, but I’d have to say Jeff Buckley’s cover of Hallelujah. It kicks the original’s ass.
“God Only Knows” by the Beach Boys.
Ok, no laughing:
Fields of Gold – Sting
Lady In Red
Come What May – Moulin Rouge
(Also, I haven’t been able to get “Red” out of my mind, I forget by whom, the one about Red Riding Hood).
That’s Martha Tilston.
A-Ha- Stay On These Roads
Love’s Secret Domain by Coil
Lover, You Should’ve Come Over by Jeff Buckley
followed closely by
Northern Sky by Nick Drake
Ask Shellefly…
Mine’s “Rainbow Connection”, as sung by Kermit the Frog
Second would probably be Sway
Sting–Fields of Gold
