Question Romantic/Love Songs for My Wife

I want to make my wife a mixed CD for Valentine's Day. The problem is I need to get some ideas of what to put on it for romantic/love songs. She likes all kind of music (including country). So, any song choices to put on it? I am probably going to download them from iTunes so would prefer that they are on there.

Thanks in advance.

-Matt

P.S. I will post my choices at the end.

Here's a good one to show the way she feels when she sees you...

Here's another good one...

Or you could play her this one when I'm on the way over...

Here's another song I really like...

Kisses sweeter than wine - by Jimmy Rodgers

Edit to add:
I go to pieces - done by several Acapella, I can only think of Southern Pacific right now.
Exile - I Wanna kiss you all over
An old fashioned love song - Three dog night.
Also Exile - I could get used to you.

If you don't know any of these get me your email address and I'll send you the file I have so you can listen and decide if you want to buy it.

"I cross my heart" by George Strait or go all out with some old Conway Twitty, he was a real ladies man in his day.

You have to include the King Elvis Presley's "As Long As I have you" from King Creole.

Here are the lyrics..

Let the stars fade and fall
And I won't care at all
As long as I have you

Every kiss brings a thrill
And I know that it will
As long as I have you

Let's think of the future
Forget the past
You're not my first love
But you're my last
Take the love that I bring
Then I'll have everything
As long as I have you

Let's think of the future
Forget the past
You're not my first love
But you're my last
Take the love that I bring
Then I'll have everything
As long as I have you

If that doesn't get you any I don't know what will..

Ah you stole it from me! I was going to say barry white as well. But anyway ..my vote is for barry white.I've got so much to give.
Lionel richie is great too, let me get in to my reputrar for a few... Bringing it frooooom waaaay back... al wilson -show and tell!!! and...al green - lets stay together, barry white - staying power, chi-lites - oh girl, lionel richie- angel , easy like sunday morning, three times a lady, do it to me one more time, i call it love, always got to have some marvin gaye- sexual healing, lets get it on, If you use just one from this list you have to have teddy pendegrass- close the door...
Now that is hand picked from my 1500 music files and if that doesn't get you what you want then I can't help you and if i don't get some rep points from bringing it from way back then ....well then i will be just pissed.

i can try and email it to you if you need me to.

Matt: You make sure you include "Feels So Right" by Alabama

Whisper to me softly three words upon my skin.
No ones near and listenin, so please don't say goodbye.
Just hold me close and love me.
Press your lips to mine.
Mm, feels so right, feels so right.

Lying here beside you, I hear the echoes of your sighs.
Promise me you'll stay with me and keep warm tonight.
So hold me close and love me.
Give my heart a smile.
Mm, feels so right, feels so right.

Your body feels so gentle and my passion rises high.
You're lovin me so easy.
Your wish is my command.
Just hold me close and love me.
Tell me it wont end.
Mm, feels so right, feels so right, feels so right.

Aw, you feel so right baby.





also Chris Deburgh's version of Unchained Melody not the Righteous bros version.

I have it here if you want a copy.

Lou Rawls - "You'll Never Find (Another Love Like Mine)"



And yes, as we used to call him, "Big, Fat, Sweaty, Barry White" (Sorry, just reliving the past) was definitely a 'closer' on some 'deals'.
I'll go stand in the corner, now.



Other romantic songs:

"My Mood" - MFSB Nice, relaxing instrumental to get you (ahem, her) in the mood.

"Making Love By The Dashboard Lights" - Meatloaf I think that's the proper name.
(Sorry. Reliving the past, again!)

"Carrying Your Love With Me" - George Strait

"Baby, I Need Your Lovin'" - Johnny Rivers

"That's The Power of Love" - Huey Lewis & The News

"For Always and Forever" - Shania Twain

"Just Breathe" - Faith Hill
O.K. I'm done, after Faith. I need a Camel. (And I don't even smoke, anymore!)

Just my thoughts...

The Righteous Brothers...Unchained Melody

Air Supply... Lost in Love

Josh Groban... You Raise Me Up

Jewel... You were Meant for Me

Lionel Richie... Endless Love (or Three Times a Lady)

Brooks & Dunn... If you see Him, If you see Her

Shania Twain... From this moment

Shakira... Underneath Your clothes

Chris Issac... Wicked Game

Tim Mcgraw/Faith... It's Your Love

John Mayer... Your Body is a Wonderland

Toni Braxton... Unbreak My Heart

Goo Goo Dolls... Iris

Sara McLachlin...Angel


After warming up with the others... Hit a home run with...

Marvin Gaye... Sexual Healing
