Guest Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Make your argument as to why your pick is the best. God Only Knows by the Beach Boys: Nobody harmonizes like the Beach Boys, and it's a lot more realistic than most. It's not overly gushy, but is still an acknowledgement of life changing love, with just a hint of sadness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 They play slow songs at weddings? I'm always one of the crotchety old men complaining about the music at weddings. I considered Unchained Melody, but I think it's a little too uncertain about the relationship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms. Spam Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I can't explain it but I think Bob loved really good. If it was played at a Wedding I would love it. It's just simple island music. It sets the mood. At least for the honey moon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerina Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Unchained Melody FTW! It's my favorite song of all time. You can feel every note. And it's timeless. But if we're going for most realistic song about love, I'm going with It's Only Make Believe. It's been recorded a million times by a million different people, but nothing gut punches you like Conway Twitty's original 1958 recording.

Odine Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Perfect Day by Lou Reed. Yeah its a love song to Heroin, but I think it still qualifies. It's a perfect song too. In my Life - The Beatles. This song can bring me to tears, happy tears. Such a genuine and insightful take on love and past lovers. I like this song a lot. I mean, check these lyrics (I suppose they can read a little saccharine, but how John delivers them is super honest and the instrumentation is perfect) out: There are places I'll rememberAll my life, though some have changedSome forever, not for betterSome have gone, and some remainAll these places had their momentsWith lovers and friends, I still can recallSome are dead, and some are livingIn my life, I've loved them allBut of all these friends and loversThere is no one compares with youAnd these memories lose their meaningWhen I think of love as something newThough I know I'll never lose affectionFor people and things that went beforeI know I'll often stop and think about themIn my life, I'll love you moreThough I know I'll never lose affectionFor people and things that went beforeI know I'll often stop and think about themIn my life I'll love you moreIn my life I'll love you more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
