Your ONE all time favorite love song?

One of my favorites, but not slow enough to qualify as the all time great, is "In Your Eyes" by Peter Gabriel. My overall vote would go to many of the Sarah McLachlan songs -- "I Love You" and "Adia" are standouts from her Surfacing album (btw, the older Stumbling Towards Ecstacy cd is both an artistic and recording delight). Jameswei, I also have to agree with "The Look of Love" by Burt Bacharach and Hal David most recently recorded by Diana Krall (the whole album is a love song fest). Great topic. Too many from which to choose.

I thought about a response before I opened the thread and there, at the very top, was the one that first came to my mind.
Now I have to think of another.
Nice choice Garfish

Wow, lot's of generations in the mix.

#1 for me (when sober) is "Stand by Me".

Otherwise it would be "You Sexy Thing/Thang" by Hot Chocolate, I think (not very good @ remembering song titles & bands). The lead in is: "I believe in miracles", in the event that I have the title wrong.

"Ghost Riders in the Sky", by Miss Peggy Lee, always makes me horny, but this is not up for further discussion. LOL!

I am also a BIG Jacques Brel fan, but the name of any preferred title escapes me, being language impaired, and I am too lazy to go through our LP's.

Another great sentimental song (other than "As Time Goes By") is the orchestrated music to "Over the Rainbow" (lots of things going on, for the masses (I think) with this tune).

If I had to pick one love song, it would be Mercer's Autumn Leaves. If we are talking about recordings, one of my favorites would be Aquellos Ojos Verdes recorded by Ibrahim Ferrer and the Buena Vista Social Club.

"Love Hurts" sung by Gram Parsons and Emily Lou Harris on his album "Greivious Angel".
