Spitting games snow patrol amuses me for its stalkerish tale of unrequited love

I broke into your house last night
And left a note at your bed-side
Im far too shy to speak to you at school
You leave me numb and im not sure why

Not sure if [url=

'For you I'd bleed myself dry' - Coldplay - Yellow is one hell of a line...

Paul Weller - You Do Something to me

Just a couple to add to the list...

Still, agree with a post above - Hazel O'Connor - Will You - though it has to come second to our 'first dance tune

are you doing the rest of your life..?[/url] Though I think it's very hard to beat the version but Alison Moyet...

Your cracked country lips, I still wish to kiss, as to be by the touch of your skin;
Your magnetic movements still capture the minutes I'm in...

'Flamingoes Fly' from the album The Philosopher's Stone by the legendary Van Morrison.

"Beers steers and queers by Revolting Cocks allways geerts me reet fired up fer bedroom action.."

Oddly enough, I was listening to that this afternoon and thinking exactly the same..........which I found a tad disturbing ๐Ÿ™‚

Chanson des vieux amants - Brel Never heard an english translation but the french is lovely.

Martha - Tom Waits
Downriver - David Ackles

The last two very much of a piece. Done time, come back, gentle question - Oh you're married - No, just getting back in touch for old time's sake

Does a love song have to be about shared love?

Never considered "1953 Vincent Blak Lightning" was a love song but thinking about it that's a pretty good choice.

Something Changed by Pulp, or Can't Stop Lovin You by Leo Sayer.

Also, Orchard Road by the little curly-haired disco god is a belter... And what about Moonlighting? Surely the only ever mention of the Carlisle turn off on the M6 motorway in a song...

Correct me if I'm wrong.

You're wrong (about Leo). Leo Sayer is the shittiest artist ever to record a song.
Sorry, but you did ask and I can't f&*%ing stand him!
