Back when I was in my early to mid-20's (also known as 13,000 years ago), I was fooled into thinking that I had to dread Valentine's Day if I didn't have a boyfriend on February 14th. How incredibly silly. Whether you're in a relationship or not, love is everywhere, and I, for one, always have a great time acknowledging that love every year. Plus, chocolate is delicious whether you're dating someone or not. If you need a help getting into the mood this holiday, I can recommend a few of my favorite songs about love. Off the top of my head:
- The Very Last Time-- Pat Johnson and the Maydays
- It Must Be Love-- Madness
- You're All I Need To Get By-- Marvin Gaye and Tami Terrell
- Crush Story-- Too Much Joy
- Hold Me Tight-- The Beatles
- True Love-- X
- I've Been Waiting-- Matthew Sweet
- You've Really Got A Hold On Me--- Smokey Robinson and the Miracles (yes, it's a song about completely unhealthy, dysfunctional love, but that totally counts)
- Sweet Darlin'-- She and Him
- Be My Baby-- The Ronettes
- Beneath the Blue Sky-- The Go-Go's
- River Deep, Mountain High-- Ike and Tina Turner
- Rhythm of Love-- Plain White T's
- The Real World-- The Bangles
Tonight I'm going to continue celebrating by singing a few songs and enjoying a few cocktails. And knowing me, probably eating some more chocolate.
