Best Love Songs (and "your" songs)

[Rel]

No offense to anyone.

:\ Oh of course not. How could "[SINGS LIKE A LOVESICK CHICKEN/DANCES LIKE AN ENRAGED MARMOT/SETS MY HEART AFLUTTER, but certainly doesn't do something rather rude]" possibly be offensive to anyone?

Perhaps this thread is not the best place to critique music that you don't happen to like.

P.S. For the record, I'm NOT a Rod Stewart fan.

Our first dance was to Glenn Miller's Moonlight Serenade, one of the Big Band classics. It was our first dance both when we first met, started dating, and fell immediately in love; and when we got married, four years later.

The next was Magnetic Fields' Nothing Matters When We're Dancing, an extremely romantic song.

Then Elvis's I Can't Help Falling In Love With You, and then a variety of different dancy tracks. Lemme see if I can find some of the better ones (I gave a list to Spider, my brother/best man/DJ, and he wonderfully found most of them):
-Downtown Train (Tom Waits)
-Waltz Me Once Again Around the Dance Floor (KD Lang)
-Take This Waltz (Leonard Cohen)
-Love Like We Do (Edie Brickell)
-The Road Goes On Forever (Robert Earl Keen)
-The Best Thing about New York City (They Might Be Giants)
-Penguins (Lyle Lovett)

Our wedding rocked.

-The Road Goes On Forever (Robert Earl Keen)

Sherry was a waitress at the only joint in town,
She had a reputation as a girl who'd been around. . .

How romantic! Seriously, I love REK.

-Penguins (Lyle Lovett)

Because they're so sensitive. . .

Our wedding rocked.

Sounds like it!

Next time you get married, how about inviting me.

I think the first paragraph above goes under the "What in the name of Kahless was that?!?!" category....

I happen to like Rod Stewart, especially his 80s stuff.

And Torm's story of retribution (Gee, I didn't know that was in his profile.... ) was funny! It's lame for an artist to cancel one show just to play somewhere else the same night.

And, people, please keep song critiques out of this thread. Thanks.

"That" was an edit made by our very own Pielorinho, whom I admire for his excellent judgement among other things. I take no credit for his phrasing.

Ok. Thanks for clearing up who wrote it. It still is IMO. I take it that the original was much, much worse....

It's probably best for all concerned if we dropped it. Suffice it to say that the level of discourse here at ENWorld takes a while to grow accustomed to.

This ain't just any old messageboard.

It's a lot tamer than most.

I met you later that year, alas; and God willing, I'll never have the chance to invite you to my wedding, unless my experiments on temporal physics go better than expected.

And penguins really are sensitive to my needs!
