As most of you know, Valentine's day is coming up. For some it's a depressing holiday, because they have no love their lives. But for others it's a day to celebrate the love they've found. And what better way to convey such an emotion, than with music? So what I'm wondering is, what are the most romantic songs? You know, the ones that make even the most unemotional get a little teary-eyed..... Whether it's lost, unrequited, or imaginary, the theme here is love.

Here are my picks:

Waking Up Beside You - Stabbing Westward
We will Meet Again - VAST
November Rain - Guns n' Roses

Thas all I can think of for now.

These are gonna sound pretty trendy, but...
Nothing Else Matters by Metallica
I Don't Want To Miss A Thing by Aerosmith
And on a sad note:
Bloody Kisses by Type O Negative

My favorite love songs

Nevermore - Forever
Iced Earth - I Died For You
Judas Priest - Before the Dawn (Girls, you may consider Judas Priest a hard and heavy band, but this song will make you weep, literally)
Siouxsie & the Banshees - Face to Face (fagget band, but I like this song. I was a batfan as a small kid and it was included in the OST of the batman film)
Type O Negative - Bloody Kisses (The Dark Lord of Goth delivered a masterpiece)
Cradle of Filth - A Gothic Romance (Whimscical love song with a gothic touch)
Marduk - Obedience (very touching)


Sorry I don't know any more love songs. I was never very fond of them. Ask me anything about songs that tell about brutality and darkness, about misanthropy and violence...but love...it is a foreign term.

Vlad the Impaler

(antihero), my fellow VAST fan, reminded me that I forgot to add "Touched" by VAST to my list. A beautiful song...

Waking Up Beside You - Stabbing Westward
Only In Dreams - Weezer
Everlong - Foo Fighters
Heart Shaped Box - Nirvana
Kissing You - Des'ree
To You I Bestow - Mundy
Generator - Foo Fighters
3 Libras - A Perfect Circle
You and Me On the Big Screen - Lanemeyer
Take Too Long - Surrogate McKenzie


Sigh....I wish I had a boyfriend

Stabbing Westward - Waking up Beside You
The Cure - Pictures of You, Catch, There is no If, Close to Me, etc..
Smashing Pumpkins - galapogos, mayonnaise, soma, anything from "adore"
VAST - flames, you
Live - Lightning Crashes

angel's son it is so fucking beautiful
true-spandue ballet
take on me- aha
closer border line stalking sort of romantic
um yeah that about it oh ?Barry White?

Messiah! "Fugees - No Woman No Cry" ??

Thats a fucking travesty man.

Bob Marley wrote that song, and performed it 50 times better then the Fugees could ever hope to attain. Do not dishonor his memory by saying the Fugees did it better.

Also fat props to Vlad for mentioning Iced Earth, couldnt agree more.

Here's mine:

Leonard Cohen - Dance Me to the End of Love
Leonard Cohen - Famous Blue raincoat
Mazzy Star - Hair and Skin
Bob Seger - We've got Tonight (not really love, but close enough)

fucking 'moonlight sonata'.....


and hell yeah about the marley thing, they also did a version of Queens bohemian rhapsody...what a fucking joke.

I know, however I was never able to succesfully download the Marley version, and while scrolling through my napster list for romantic-type songs I put down the version I had without stopping to notice my mistake. Bob Marley's one of my favorite artists of all time so trust me, I had no intention of dishonoring him.
