From reading the previous posts, ppl have got a wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide interpretation of "love songs" which is good.
Obviously being an old timer, had my 50th last week, i could go for loads of stuff, i mean....where the hell would i start!?!?!?!?
But in terms of love songs from Rock bands then it is one of two----babe, i'm gonna leave you (Led Zep) or still in love with you (Thin Lizzy-live version).
OMG the emotion and power of these two tracks just blows me away.
On a more contemporary note then you cant omit whitney houston-i will always love you and-somebody also mentioned this Leona lewis-Bleeding Love.......FFS that girl can SING.....nah seriously have you ever heard a finer voice? truly.
Don't think the whipper snappers will have heard any of these, but here we go. Chris Isaak - Wicked Game. Bette Midler - The Rose. Joe Brown - Picture of you. Lita Ford and Ozzy - If I close my eyes forever.
Now if we were going to do a Tear Jerkers album, try these.... The Rockin' Berries - He's Back in Town. Vaya con Dios - Heading for a fall. Ray Charles - Take these chains from my Heart.
A couple of obscure ones I know but hey, you didn't say they had to be popular!
