Talking What Are Your Favorite Love Songs?

Now here's a thread guaranteed to make all of the single guys on the board want to hurl: what are your favorite love songs? Listening to the first song on my list this afternoon inspired me to post this thread.

Here's my list:
1) "Into the Night" by Benny Mardones (my favorite of this list)
2) "Wonderful Tonight" by Eric Clapton
3) "What If" by Coldplay (the 'first dance' song at my wedding)
4) "Amazed" by Lonestar
5) "Time In A Bottle" by Jim Croce
6) "Here With Me" by Dido
7) "I'll Still be Loving You" by Restless Heart
8) "Nights In White Satin" by The Moody Blues
9) "Kiss you All Over" by Exile (Ok, maybe it is more of a sex song than a love song, but I like it anyway)
10) "Everything I Do, I Do it for You" by Bryan Adams

My husband (who loathes love songs) likes "You're Nobody 'Til Somebody Loves You" by Dean Martin; he stood up in front of a bunch of strangers in a bar and sang that song to me at our wedding. Yes, he was very drunk at the time.

For those of you who think love, and love songs, suck, here's my list of favorite anti-love songs:

1) "Wicked Game" by Chris Isaak
2) "Love Stinks" by The J. Geils Band
3) "It's All Over But The Crying" by Garbage

Mind you, I'm not claiming these songs are the absolute best love songs ever written. They are just my personal favorites.

You may notice a heavy '80s-bias in the list, which is not surprising considering I grew up in the '80s.
