This list has the true masters of the love song. As you guessed, most of these songs are from before our time...as in the 80s and 70s.
5) You're The Inspiration by Chicago
This song is fantastic. It's the song that one should listen to when they think that life is getting to hard and that they should just quit. Why? Because this song will remind them that there is something to hold on to and to keep being good for. Maybe not something, but someone. The guiding light in the darkness.
4) I'll Be There For You by Bon Jovi
Ignore the Goofy 80s hair and music video. This song is something special because it has the message that I'll always be there for you. Through the good and the bad, even if you hate the guy, he'll still be there for you.
3) All of my Love by Led Zeppelin
It may be a little of the beaten trail of love songs, but Led Zeppelins cryptic messages and allusions to mythology, I feel, make this a great song.
2) Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Believe it or not, Pink Floyd can make a great love song. And instead of it being some trippy allusion that he would like to have you near (though there are some creative, not quite trippy metaphors and similes), he comes right out and says it "How I wish you where here"
1) In My humble opinion, the greatest love song is this.......
Faithfully by Journey
Just listen to it and you'll understand what I mean.
In each of these songs is a little part of what some believe. They keep holding on because a girl is the inspiration, they promise that they will always be there for them, even when it's hard. They will give all of their love because they deserve noting less. They will always have the girl on their mind and wish they were with them, and most importantly they will be faithful, no matter what.
Dude. So good. That is all. I shall follow up with this shortly.
