It’s February. Stores are filled to the brim with red and pink, chocolates, teddy bears and fresh roses. Men are scrambling to find the perfect something for their lady and women are hounding their men for clues as to what kind of present to get them. In the midst of all the chaos going on, there will be plenty of time set aside for loving.
And where there’s loving, there’s bound to be some music playing. So, let’s take a look at some of the best love songs that will surely get you and yours in the mood for love. And by love songs, I mean just that. Not sex songs, but the ones that describe the butterflies in the stomach, can’t live without you kind of love.
Anita Baker – Sweet Love
What can I really say to describe this song. It’s classic, classy and the perfect explanation of the kind of love everyone fights to find and fights to keep — that sweet kind of love. “There’s no stronger love in this world. You’re my man, I’m your girl…Don’t you know this is where you belong?” [Play the song]
Brian Mcknight – Never Felt This Way
There is something a man telling a woman how much he loves her. And this song does just that. It explains love from the point of view of a man who’s never really been in love with a woman this deeply until now. It’s the perfect love lullaby topped off with silky vocals. “There will never come a day, you will ever hear me say that I want or need to be without you…I wanna give my all”. [Play the song]
Anthony Hamilton – The Point of It All
This is probably THE loveliest love song to come out in a long while. This track is tender, emotional and explains in depth why a man does what he does for his woman. The point of all that he does, is love. And if that’s not a good enough reason to want to be near your girl, pamper her and appreciate her — then I don’t know what is. [Play the song]
Kem – I Can’t Stop Loving You
Although this isn’t a love song in the traditional sense, it still applies. This song speaks to those who hold onto love long after the relationship is over. You reminisce about what there once was and try to figure out how to get it back. Truth be told, it’s hard to get over someone. Just because they may not love you back doesn’t negate the love you feel. [Play the song]
Alicia Keys – If I Aint Got You
With that fluttering piano intro and those captivation lyrics, how could I not include this on a list of love songs. What I love most about this song is that it makes you really think about what it is that drives your love. Is it the physical things? The material things? Or can you really just say that “…everything means nothing, if I ain’t got you.” [Play the song]
