Love Songs
Now there has been a song thread going for a long time here on the Seven Forums, however, while going to Subway to get me a sandwich Don Fodelberg's love song "Longer Than" was playing. That gave me the idea that it would be interesting to see what love songs members found to be the best.
So, what is your favorite Love Song: You may have more than one, it can be silly or heart warming, but it has to be a Love Song.
Here are a few that I would place at the top of my list:
1. Juice Newton - The Sweetest Thing
2. Dan Fodelberg - Longer
3. Chris De Burg - Lady In Red
4. Berlin - Take My Breath Away
What say you. . .

aem, the first two you listed are in my top ten, just not in the top five. As to Unchained Melody I saw the Rightous Brothers do that in person back around 1964-65 in Seattle. If you haven't listened to "Longer" by Fodelberg you should it is great, it just my number one was my Wife's favorite (died in 1986 from lung cancer), so it kind of has a special place in my heart.
