Lilith - you are right, as usual... Bonnie turns it into the ultimate torch song! Written by former NFL player Mike Reid, I think his version was used in the movie "Boxing Helena"... a mondo weird movie, if ever I saw one...
I'm not sure if I have the quote right, but I remember something like,
You can't make someone love you, but you can stalk them until they give in...

My favourite is 'Time to Say Goodbye' by Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman.
It is Classical, so I guess it's maybe an acquired taste.

Actually, on each Beatles album there was one song written and sung by George Harrison. They also included a solo by Ringo on each album. |

Some of my favorites are:
"To Love Somebody" The BeeGees
"Love Me" Elvis Presley
"Love the One You're With" Steven Stills
"Old Fashioned Love Song" Three Dog Night (this is "our" song)
I've got tons more but am drawing a blank right now. It's past my bedtime and my brain is in a fog....

Almost right, there... first few albums there would be one sung by George, took a little while for his writing to get good enough to be included on the record... sorry if I sound picky here, just love sharing Beatles trivia with others of my kind

You might want to double check on that......just off the top of my head right now on the Meet the Beatles LP(their first American LP) George sang AND wrote "Don't Bother Me". On A Hard Days Night George sang AND wrote "I Should Have Known Better". I can't check the rest of the LP's right now as they are in my bedroom and my husband is asleep.
I don't mean to be picky either, but back in "the day" I was a huge George fan. (saw them in person twice too) |

Because in Germany we do not pay attention so much to the text, i´ve got a special lovesong: John Miles: Music
("Music was my first love....")
For real lovesongs have to think more.

It's not exactly a soft, romantic, love song, but "Ice Cream" by Sarah McLachlan is a "fun" love song.
"Your love is better than ice cream, better than anything else that I've tried."

Ok, I have all the Beatles LPs I have, which is all of them. Anyway, George didn't write anything on "The Beatles Second Album", nor did he write anything on "Something New", and I stand corrected....he didn't write anything from the soundtrack for "A Hard Day's Night" or "Beatles '65". "The Early Beatles" was pretty much a duplicate on Capitol of the "Introducing the Beatles" LP that was released on VeeJay and he had nothing on there either that he wrote. On "Beatles VI" he wrote and sang "You Like Me Too Much". On "Rubber Soul" he wrote and sang "This Bird Has Flown". On "HELP" he wrote and sang "I Need You". On "Yesterday and Today" it was "If I Needed Someone". Then on "Revolver" (one of my personal favorite Beatle LPs) he did "Taxman". And on "Magical Mystery Tour" it was "Blue Jay Way". On "Sgt. Pepper" it was "Within You Without You". On what is known as "The White Album" he did "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", "Long Long Long", "Piggies" and "Savoy Truffle". On "Yellow Submarine" he did "Only a Northern Song" and "It's all Too Much". On "Abbey Road" he did "Something" (which started this whole mess! LOL!!) and "Here Comes the Sun". Then finally on "Let it Be" he contributed "I Me Mine" and "For You Blue".
Yeah, I know I must seem like a picky bitch.....sorry.
There's a really GREAT Beatles website with both their US and UK discography at http://www.thebeatlesongs.com/index.html.  |
