Most Romantic Song Ever

[shafesk]

Since Valentines Day is nearing, I want to make a mixed cd for my beloved. What is the most romantic song you can think of? For me it would be "The Way You Look Tonight"-Tony Bennett and "Fly Me To The Moon"-Diana Krall

 

[hoopsontoast]

One of a less well known one....

I really like Samson by Regina Spektor.

'If...' by The Divine Comedy.

Dusty Springfield's version of "If you go away" and Petula Clark's "Beatuful in the rain".

For me, it's 'The Luckiest' by Ben Folds. Gives me goosebumps...

 

[DandyCobalt]

Looks like a few of us will have the perfect Valentine's mix tape by the end of the day - thanks! (That's 14th Feb ticked off the list

 

[Charlie Jefferson]

The Luckiest Guy On The Lower East Side - The Magnetic Fields

'First Time Ever I Saw Your Face'. Roberta Flack

+1 for that (signed the register to that song when we got married...)

Another vote for Dusty, too - this time the brilliant Burt Bacharach/Hal David The Look of Love:

Daniel Bedingfield - If you're not the one

 

[CJSF]

I'd go for Jennifer Rush and 'The Power of Love' . . .

CJSF

 

[Charlie Jefferson]

Misery Is The River Of The World - Tom Waits.

I signed my divorce papers to that one.

But back to the original question, it's got to be, Thank You Too by My Morning Jacket. Again.

 

[Sospri]

Here's an oldie,

Andy williams - Walk hand in hand with me...............

 

[bebelacus]

I'm your man - Leonard Cohen. It will do fine on your compilation

 

[chrisk139]

"I Only Want To Be With You" as performed by Shelby Lynne.

 

[basshound]

Couldn`t love you more by John Martyn , one of the most beautiful love songs ever (IMO)

 

[Andrew Everard]

Clickety

That sounds dreadful in more ways than one. Think I will stick Roberta Flack.
