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

Pehare,
Yes, my screen name was chosen because of my love and respect for Bryan Ferry, and Roxy Music. Country Life does have a great cover, as do the first and second albums, and Flesh and Blood. There are so many artists in different genres that I love, but that band has a piece of my heart for sure.
I'll probably get a good bashing for this, but I am actually shocked at some of the songs that are being mentioned, not because they are pop, which I have no problem with at all, but because some of them are so banal and formulaic.
Al,
That's a beautiful song, and I had never heard it before. Thanks.
Coincidentally, earlier in this thread, I chose "Today" by Jefferson Airplane as one of the most beautiful love songs I know. I don't know if you are familiar with it.

Al,
I saw that performance on TV, and was also shocked that his voice sounded so great still at his age. Good pick, even though it's not one of my favorite songs either.
