Pfffff....we'll see about that!

I think you mean Just Like Heaven, but yeah thats a beautiful song.

Velvet Underground- Pale Blue Eyes

my girlfriend says I am a cold cold cynic. love songs do not move me.

killing moon-echo and the bunnymen

magnetic fields- 100,000 fireflies. most of their songs are romantic, though.

You're right; thanks for catching my brain cramp. I think I have early-onset Alzheimer's.

"Last Caress."

Good shout on the song though, i was listening to it the other day, I find i cant listen to it too much or it loses a bit of its beauty.
In Lieu of any actual romance on Valentines day, i was singing Cotton Crown whilst out with my housemates, i told them it was the most romantic Sonic Youth song (Or at least the most singable one)

Totally. For those of you who don't know the song... Here's a taste

I got something to say
I killed your baby today
And it doesnt matter much to me
As long as its dead

Well I got something to say
I raped your mother today
And it doesnt matter much to me
As long as she spread

Sweet lovely death
I am waiting for your breath
Come sweet death, one last caress

love you madly - Cake

We used to play Last Caress.....yep.

the ship song - nick cave
you me - en
dancing in the moonlight - pumpkins covering thin lizzy

This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody) - Talking Heads

It's one of their best in my opinion.

Jim O'Rourke - Halfway to a Threeway

Loving, heartwarming lyrics.

Tim Buckley - Love from room 109... / Sing a song for you / Once I was / Chase the blues away / Song to the siren
Radiohead - Black star / Lucky
Jeff Buckley - Lilac wine / Lover, you should've come over / Je n'en connais pas la fin / Morning theft

Countless Nick Cave songs, in fact, but I'll give special mention to that one, plus Into My Arms, Straight To You, and Are You The One That I've Been Waiting For.

Also "To Love Somebody", particularly Gallon Drunk's version.

I forgot Nina Simone - Wild is the wind and Edith Piaf - Hymne à l'amour
