L-O-V-E

Not every song is a long song, but majority of songs talk about relationships or interactions with other people. I think it's just human nature and there's no denying that we are influenced by the people around us every day. I think I've said before that sometimes music says words we couldn't say ourselves and finds ways to express our deepest feelings. There is a universal need to be love and be loved. Music is all about emotion and to me, love is one of the greatest emotions we have. Time and time again, fabulous songs have been written and I know that both men and women alike rely on these love songs to define their relationships and share something with those they love.

Younger people might listen to something like Taylor Swift's Love Story, David Archuleta's Crush, David Guetta's Without You, or Bruno Mars' Just the Way You Are.

Older people to Natalie Cole's This Will Be (An Everlasting Love), Elvis' Love Me Tender, Frank Sinatra's The Way You Look Tonight, or Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You.


I also think that country artists write great love songs. A couple of my favorites include:
I Love You This Big - Adam Stanton
I Love You - Martina McBride
Love Like Crazy - Lee Brice
I Do (Cherish You) - Mark Wills
My Best Friend - Tim McGraw

Gotta love 'em! Love can change a life and I know there will continue to be great love songs written as long as time goes on.
