So...I decided to do a list of my top ten favorite romantic songs. I love when a song captures a feeling really well, and that's what I love about all these!
1. Check Yes Juliet-We The Kings: I remember watching the video for this song and feeling like my heart was melting. The story is so sweet, and the emotion comes through so well in the song. The guitar at the beginning just pulls you in, and you can’t stop listening to this song for days after.
2. Stolen-Dashboard Confessional: How can I even start to tell you how much I love this song? I can’t think of a more heartfelt, romantic, sweet song than this one. The lyrics just describe the feeling to perfection, and the music just makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside.
3. I Want You-Kelly Clarkson: When I first heard this song, it stood out from the rest of her album as interesting, creative, and incredibly cute. I love how as she is describing this person, the tone of her voice is so loving, and it really sounds like she adores him. I also love how if you listen to the lyrics the guy she is describing is far from what most people would consider “perfect” but she loves all the imperfect things more than the perfect things.
4. In The End-Green Day: If you’ve heard this song, you’re probably going “What?!” However, if you really listen to the lyrics (or read them out of the booklet in the cover of the CD like I did,) then you will discover that this is actually I really sweet song. And as always, their emotion comes through more than clearly.
5. Kiss Me-Sixpence None The Richer: Oh My God, I obsessed over this song for so long! How can you not? How can you resist the sound of the guitar and the gorgeous lyrics? The tone of her voice is so dreamy and romantic, and the tune is just incredible. I have never heard a song where an emotion is so well brought out.
6. Love Story-Taylor Swift: Ok, it’s not my fault that all her songs are so overplayed! If you listen to the original version of this song without the weird techno beat in the background, this song is so sweet and the lyrics tell a real story. One that isn’t just all fluff about a perfect love story, but one that seems much more real.
7. Beautiful-Akon, Colby O’Donis and Kardinal Offishal: This is an odd choice, I know. But I genuinely think this is a beautiful song! And I know, the video was all skanks and technically it’s about skanks, but I think it’s still a great song. It makes me feel good every time I listen to it. And that’s hard to do.
8. Come On Get Higher-Matt Nathanson: It’s hard to believe that I actually didn’t like this song at first. But, it grew on me. In fact, it soon became one of my favorite songs. It just pulled me in with its sweet but suggestive lyrics and pretty tune. Even though it seems dull and boring at first, this one is a winner.
9. Can’t Find The Words-Karina: It’s funny that I actually got this as Itunes’ free “Single of the Week.” It soon earned its place in my heart with the beautiful melody and cute lyrics. I listened to this song all the time about a year ago when I got it. I have to say, this one is worth much more than nothing.
10. She Will Be Loved-Maroon 5: How can it get more romantic than this? The soft voice and the sweetest lyrics of all time! The soft cymbals in the background and just the very soft instruments playing lend to the overall feeling of the song. It’s just brilliant. Even though it’s technically a sad song, it just gives you that dreamy feeling when you listen to it. There’s something about it that makes it a classic.

Im glad that you choose songs that the majority of us can reconize an drelate too :D and major points for choosing a greenday song!
ReplyDeletei think you can make some of your points clearer with direct quotation from the lyrics, or even a link to the music video on youtube or something. maybe seperate your numbers with an "enter."
You are doing very well grammatically, but this top ten format is getting a bit tired. There's nothing really wrong with the entry, but it's becoming formulaic, and as such is not so engaging anymore. Try something else next time.
ReplyDeleteAwesome read. Thanks a lot for sharing this with us.
