OK, sorry if there is a thread for this already, which there probably already is. I just thought since Valentine's Day was around the corner this could be a cool thing to discuss. Even if you hate Valentines Day, love songs are always cool.

Here are a few of my personal favorites:

Debra by Beck
The Luckiest by Ben Folds
You are too Beautiful by John Coltrane and Johny Hartman
A Case of You by Joni Mitchell

That's all I can think of right now.
mmm, mmmm good

Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free, silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands, with all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves, let me forget about today until tomorrow.
