Last Valentine's Day (yes, the day created by Hallmark to simultaneously increase the number of divorces, suicides, and bedroom romps all at once) I created a CD of songs that described the way I felt about my wife. One of those songs just popped up on my iPod, and it occured to me that it was probably the best "dedication song" I'd ever heard. Anyway, that brings me to propose the question, if your significant other or just a potential suitor dedicated a song to you, what would you like it to be? SJG - You want a song about a strung out junkie dedicated to you? Seek help now. My Michelle-GNR
EDIT: "Everyone needs love
You know that it's true
Someday you'll find someone
That'll fall in love with you
But oh the time it takes
When you're all alone
Someday you'll find someone
That you can call your own
But till then ya better..."
EDIT...You discount the masses of rockers when you denounce a former junkie..."Mainline this", you oh so sheltered and privileged man.
EDIT: It's a song of hope..."someday..."...and it happens to match my existence...I spent numerous school years high as a kite...as a junior the diesel mechanics teacher and his friend took me to lunch and gave me lines, my entire senior year I worked at Kroger's, had Speech and Debate practice, and stayed up quite often on meth, and then I spent numerous after school years "blowing hard"...I'm sure I'm not alone...take it however you take it. Rock On. 'I Cross My Heart' by George Strait Somehow I always felt your description applied more to Sweetest Day than the long established V Day. Even more shocking remains the fact Hallmark doesn't have a third manufactured love holiday for the summer months.
Sisters of Mercy - Temple of Love
By virtue of having "love" in its title, it becomes a love song that doesn't suck. Plus, it's pretty "hawt" (sorry in advance for sounding like Paris). next to you-buckcherry haha if you listen to the words of the song you can see why! the guy listens to music he HATES just so he can get close to the girl...now that's dedication Thank You by Led Zeppelin. It's a beautiful love song. All I need by AIR
Its supper hot and I would like to think that I am all my wife needs! lazy eye- by silversun pickups
or
unchained melody- by righteous brothers
what song "popped on your iPod"? Valentine's Day... *grrr*
Echo - Incubus
Blue Dress - Depeche Mode
My Cherie Amour - Stevie Wonder
I'm sure there are more. I may be back... 2 songs for me-
1-tracy byrd-keeper of the stars. (country song)
2-steelheart-i'll never let you go. Something that shows they pay attention like
Terror-"Overcome"
Pantera-"Strength Beyond Strength"
Shadows Fall-"Inspiration On Demand"
Hatebreed-"Perseverance"
Because all that means alot to me and the lyrics just make you feel it Probably Stevie Wonder's Signed Sealed Delivered I'm Yours since it's our song and we've got the history with it, but to go a little more out of the box with it...
the Beatles - Here Comes the Sun
That song just makes me feel good and has a real sweetness to it. (I hope there is no hidden meaning like it's really about George doing a bunch of heroin and killing a hooker, but it was so cathartic that "here comes the sun") Interstate love song - Stone Temple Pilots
I don't stick around for V-day. Anything that I can slow dance to:
'The way you look tonight' Harry Connick Jr
'18th Floor Balcony' Blue October
'Try a Little Tenderness' Michael Buble
'Home' Michael Buble
'Song for you' Michael Buble
etc
Also, 'Want To Make a Memory' Bon Jovi Led Zep "All of My Love" I proposed to Always and Forever by Heatwave and that was our wedding song! "Tape your wife to the ceiling" by The Suburbs "..she used to love her heroin, but now she's underground"
Anyway,
The Cure; Lovesong.
