S/O: What are your top romantic songs?

[ourbabygirl]

I'm thinking I need to buy some iTunes to have more 'romantic' songs in my repertoire to help get me in the mood ;).
Other than some Sade, do you have any recommendations for artists/ groups and songs?

Thanks!

What if You by Joshua Radin is one of my favorites! I'll add more later when I go to the other computer w/ iTunes.

I'm sad that you said "other than Sade" because I can't think of a more favorite love song than By Your Side.

But let's see, there's also Crash Into Me by Dave Matthews Band, I like that one...How Deep is your Love by the Bee Gees (yes, I know, the Bee Gees)...Love Will Keep Us Alive by the Eagles...I'll have to think some more.

So Amazing by Luther Vandross does it to me every time!

Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye
Pretty much anything Sinatara (there's a CD called Greatest Love Songs)
A lot of Harry Connick (More, For Once In My Life, etc)
Grow Old With Me (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
Love, Love, Love (Tristan Prettyman)
Marry Me (Amanda Marshall)
Turn Me On (Norah Jones)
Your Body's a Wonderland (John Mayer)
In Your Eyes (Peter Gabriel)
Follow Through (Gavin Degraw)
Forever and Always (Shania Twain)

Actually, I said other than Sade because I like her songs and just wanted some additional ones (she's all I could think of).
