Over 175 Stars and Industry Pros Picked Their Favorite Love Songs – What's Yours? — Page 3

I was going to say I can't believe how many people are saying so many songs about unrequited or lost love are their favorite songs...that is so masochistic. "Still Hurting"??? Oh my God how can that be anyone's favorite love song? It makes me want to die. (whoa melodrama) and "On My Own" I have loved since I was 12 but it's really sad if considered a favorite love song.

Even "The Next 10 Minutes" I find bittersweet. Yes the words and meaning are beautiful and really grasp the beauty of love in the moment...but I have a problem taking songs out of context. I can't listen to that song without thinking, "BUT THEN LOOK WHAT HAPPENED!!!!!!" How am I so cynical at 21? Oy.

Anyway...I then realized that the song I immediately thought of as my favorite love song is just as much a double-edged sword as some of the others!

"You Should Be Loved" from Sideshow. It is SO BEAUTIFUL, but in the end...she cannot take that risk, and he if left with all this love for her that he can't give to her. Hmm...

Screw it, I'm with John. Send in the Clowns.

edit: oh hahahahahaha musicaltheatre1 you said "For Good" HAHAHAHAHAHA that's awesome.

I think my favorites would be:
"Lets do it,lets fall in love"
"So in Love"
"Loving you"
"Not a day goes by"
"Not while I'm around"

Mine:
"All I Ask of You" (The Phantom of the Opera)
"All the Wasted Time" (Parade) *such a beautiful tune*
"I'll Cover You" and "Seasons of Love" (RENT)
"You Are Beautiful" (Flower Drum Song)
"To Have and to Hold" (The Beautiful Game)
"Love to Me" (The Light in the Piazza)
...Though there are many, many out there...
