The Top 10 Popular Love Songs

The Top 10 Popular Love Songs
by Susan Dunn, MA, The EQ Coach

What makes a great love song? A certain rhythm, one you could slow dance to or "why dance?" to. Lyrics that touch the soul. Longing, not lust. A melody you can never forget. The expression of feelings you can't describe.

Sometimes the first time you heard it, whom you were with when you heart it, what you were doing, and memories. A great love song spans generations, because it is timeless.

When you hear it your heart stops, tunes in to something very big, and then beats differently. Your eyes glaze over and you go somewhere far away. You are captured by the sound and the moment, You think of things without words, and you think of love. And what is that?

In the words of the poet, Emily Dickinson, you know all about love: "That love is all there is, Is all we know of Love."
