My 20 Favorite Love Songs (Tag I’m It)
SharePosted on 26. Nov, 2008 by Gallivanter in Songs
Let me stress this again, I hate tags, because it’s just a waste of space to me. I’d rather blog about something different. However, I have an achilles heel, if the tag involves MUSIC. Hence, thanks to Maika, I will now share my favorite 10 love songs in no particular order, and at this point of time, I love listening too. Trust me, when you have a library of over 4000 songs like I do, bringing down to 10 is like a surgeon trying to dislodge a button stuck in one of your arteries.
I will choose not 10 but 20 of my favorite love songs post 2000, in no particular order!
1 – Bon Jovi – (You Want to) Make a Memory
You want to make a memory, You want to steal a piece of time?
You can sing the melody to me, And I could write a couple lines
2 – Nickelback – Far Away
I love you I have loved you all along
And I miss you been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you’ll be with me and you’ll never go
Stop breathing if I don’t see you anymore
3 – Hoobastank – The Reason
I’ve found a reason for me to change who I used to be
A reason to start over new and the reason is you
4 – Lifehouse – You & Me
Cause it’s you and me and all of the people with nothing to do nothing to lose
And it’s you and me and all other people and I don’t know why, I can’t keep my eyes off of you
5 – Bon Jovi featuring LeAnn Rimes – Til We Ain’t Strangers Anymore
Sometimes it’s hard to love me sometimes it’s hard to love you too
I know it’s hard believing that love can pull us through
It would be so easy to live your life with one foot out the door
Just hold me baby til’ we ain’t strangers anymore
6 – Hinder – Lips of an Angel
It’s really good to hear your voice saying my name it sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel hearing those words just makes me weak
And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful with the lips of an angel
7 – Bon Jovi – Thank You for Loving Me
Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes when I couldn’t see
For parting my lips when I couldn’t breathe
Thank you for loving me
8 – Craig David – Unbelievable
It’s so unbelievable and I don’t want to let it go
Something so beautiful flowing down like a waterfall
I feel like you’ve always been forever a part of me
And it’s so unbelievable to finally be in love
Somewhere I’d never thought I’d be
9 – Bo Bice – Inside Your Heaven
I wanna be inside your heaven take me to the place you cry from
When the storm blows your way
I wanna be earth that holds you every bit of air you’re breathin’ in
A soothin’ wind I wanna be inside your heaven
10 – Matt White – Love
And love such a silly game we play
Like a summer’s day in May
What is love, what is love? I just want it to be love
And I, I can feel it in a kiss it is something I will miss
What is love, what is love? I just want you to be loved
11 – Nickelback – Never Gonna Be Alone
Never gonna be alone from this moment on
If you ever feel like letting go I won’t let you fall
When all hope is gone I know that you can carry on
We’re gonna see the world out I’ll hold you ’til the hurt is gone
12 – The Afters – Ocean Wide
If love is an ocean wide we’ll swim in the tears we cry
They’ll see us through to the other side we’re gonna make it
When love is a raging sea you can hold on to me
We’ll find a way tonight love is an ocean wide
13 – Bon Jovi – The Last Night
This is the last night, you’ll have to be alone
I’ll be standing right beside you you can’t make it on your own
So walk with me please help me to be strong
I’ll be the shoulder you can lean on when everybody’s gone
This is the last night you’ll have to be alone
14 – Lifehouse – Storm
And I will walk on water and you will catch me if I fall
And I will get lost into your eyes I know everything will be alright
I know everything is alright
15 – Luther Vandross – Dance With My Father
If I could get another chance, another walk, another dance with him
I’d play a song that would never, ever end how I’d love, love, love
To dance with my father again
16 – Michael Franti & Spearhead – Say Hey I Love You
I say hey I be gone today but I be back around the way
Seems like everywhere I go the more I see the less I know
But I know one thing that I love you
17 – Bon Jovi – All About Lovin’ You
Every time I look at you, baby, I see something new
That takes me higher than before and makes me want you more
I don’t wanna sleep tonight dreamin’s just a waste of time
When I look at what my life’s been comin’ to I’m all about lovin’ you
18 – Shayne Ward – If That’s OK With You
I’m gonna make you feel like you are heaven on earth
I’m gonna thank your mother just for giving you birth
I’m gonna wanna hold you in my arms when you cry
If that’s ok with you (If that’s ok with you)
19 – Keane – Somewhere Only We Know
So if you have a minute why don’t we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don’t we go, somewhere only we know
20 – Snow Patrol – Chasing Cars
If I lay here if I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we’re told before we get too old
Show me a garden that’s bursting into life

I love all of Bon Jovi’s song and that You & Me (Lifehouse).
I do agree with you, taking 20 songs out of thousands is a very torturing task. But you give me an idea to list down my top 20 (or 25 or 50) all time favorite… wekekekeke.

cheska – Great stuff ain’t it?
kaDusMama – High five to Bon Jovi songs! That’s why I kept the selection after the year 2000, because if I didn’t do that, this list would’ve been endless!
Christopher – Oh yes. Understatement. But of course, no to rubbish bands like Nirvana or Megadeth.
massy – Uh oh, was it the same person?
emelda –
xin – Ole! I’m a big Bon Jovi fan – dedicated a permanent category solely to them!
sheela – Excellent, so I take it you love Bon Jovi too! Dan Hill’s “Sometimes When We Touch” is a great tune, would’ve surely appeared in my list if I didn’t narrowed down the year (from the year 2000 onwards as above)
markiekadus – High five amigo to Bon Jovi! Check out Lifehouse’s Storm when you get the chance. I didn’t even start on my all-time favorite, because that list would easily reach 1000 songs.
AngeL BeaR – Great tunes indeed!

foongpc – High five for loving Bon Jovi songs! Yes, I’m arguably their biggest fan in Malaysia! I have all of their albums including demos!
cindy – Yeah, it was one of those catchy song with a catchy chorus.
desmond-t – They do, they have loads!
Though You Give Love a Bad Name isn’t one! LOL.
maika – Well, I think it’s because coming from a guy, it would be in the form of a fellow male species.
tihtahpah – Not, I’m not! No thanks to Mel!! Her fault!
emelda – Thanks to you. It’s also in our wedding songs list. Hehehehehe!
nono – Well, that seems to be the only song from Shayne Ward that I like, the chorus is so freaking catchy, minus the chipmunk part.
Thanks for subscribing to my blog!
