Your ONE all time favorite love song?


For me it's "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" by Roberta Flack, from her CD "Softly with These Songs, the Best of Roberta Flack", on Atlantic. I'm looking for LOVE SONGS. Thanks and Cheers. Craig

Two Out of Three Ain't Bad by Meatloaf. I know it's been played to death over the years but every now and then I'll sit down and really listen to it. It's a beautiful song of unrequited love. I have a 180 Gram 1/2 Speed Master Audiophile Vinyl copy and it sounds fantastic.
"How Much I Feel" by Ambrosia has always been a song that takes me back immediately to my first love. I like others who have commented cannot choose just one favorite. Every decade produces a few stellar songs that reach out and grab our heartstrings.
C'mon...Somebody must have a favorite song by Schubert or Purcell
I've already voted in this thread, nominating a song from a Broadway show, but based on a liberal interpretation of the phrase "love song" I'll give an honorable mention to Brahm's "Alto Rhapsody." Particularly the 1947(!) recording by Kathleen Ferrier.
