10 Best Love Songs Of All Time

Love songs have come a long way during the roller coaster history of music. Yet at the same time they still carry the same meaning and this list includes some legendary musicians like Eric Clapton and The Righteous Brothers with their sappy hit “Unchained Melody.”

When doing the research for this list there were many other songs that could have also made the list but it was a tough decision narrowing it down to these songs.

Love songs such as “I Knew I Loved You” by the duet Savage Garden has the soft sounds similar to Air Supply from the 70’s and the lyrics from these hits are worth remembering for many years to come. The list will give a good cross section of today’s love songs and those from decades ago. It also boasts different genres of music from country to pop to even rock including Aerosmith.

10 Love Songs Of All Time | Evergreen Love Songs

1. Amazed - Lonester

When viewers see the CD cover for Lonestar they may think of a teen idol pop band similar to Nsync or the Backstreet Boys. However the bands name can easily remind one of a country & western group and the hit song Amazed actually sounds more like country. The only thing these artists are missing, without stereotyping too much, are cowboy hats and dinner plate belt buckles.

2. I Knew I Loved You - Savage Garden

The young male duo Savage Garden and their 1999 hit is definitely a slow dance song that is most likely played at every wedding, high school and grade school dance and possibly even cruise ship ballroom. They are definitely not the Simon & Garfunkl of the 1990’s but their soft sounds and melody of this hit is definitely worth listening to and is one of those easy to listen to songs that can be enjoyed at the office or even elevator.

3. Don’t Want to Miss a Thing - Aerosmith

One of the softer songs by Aerosmith and the CD album cover is definitely their style, this love song is done live on this CD. It is difficult to hear the live background versus the studio version but it is one of the better love songs of recent years, especially by a more well-known rock band that is more at home with upbeat electric guitar and the familiar sounds of Steve Tyler. It just goes to show that even rock bands can be diverse in their music.

4. Unchained Melody - The Righteous Brothers

Of course the famous song Unchained Melody re-gained popularity from the 1990 hit movie “Ghost” with Demi Moore and Patrick Swazey, the CD album cover displays the Righteous Brothers in their vintage 1960’s drab and clean cut look. This is actually their greatest hits CD and is definitely among the top soft love songs from the 60’s yet with the movie Ghost, it seems newer than that. It is well worth adding it to your collection of oldies music.

5. From This Moment On - Shania Twain

Though she started in the country music genre, her soft sweet voice and harmonic songs can still be considered pop and Top 20 Billboard material. The CD cover illustrating Shania Twain in a casual pose however indicates that her music can be a varied as her image setting making it almost difficult to decide which genre of music she is. From This Moment is another one of those songs that is requested for a slow dance at the night club or high school dance and the lyrics alone will almost put you to sleep on the dance floor.

6. Back At One - Brian McKnight

Brian McKnight’s popular love song hit and CD title track Back At One is getting played on many radio stations and is definitely a “gotta have” to add to your collection of rhythm & blues and soul music. The lyrics of the song do not put you to sleep but make you feel romantic.

7. Wonderful Tonight - Eric Clapton

The Cream of Clapton is among the all time classic rock and blues albums and the track “Wonderful Tonight” is a popular request at many weddings, anniversaries and proms. Eric Clapton can be so versatile with his music and his voice in this love song hit is enough to make any guy or woman feel romantic. The Cream Of Clapton contains several of his greatest hits and is one of those CDs you gotta add to your collection.

8. (Everything I Do) I Do It For You - Bryan Adams

Don’t let the unusual image on the CD cover scare you away from Bryan Adams favorite hits CD and the music on this CD is priceless. The classic love song “Everything I Do” made its debut in the Kevin Kostner movie “Robin Hood Prince of Thieves” and amazingly it is among the top love songs still played daily almost 15 years later. Those that saw the movie never would have thought the theme song would still be popular today. The CD includes many more Bryan Adams hits and is well worth adding to your collection of 80’s pop rock music.

9. My Heart Will Go On - Celine Dion

This is not just a great love song but was the title track in the 1998 hit movie Titanic and when listeners hear the song, they may quickly relate to the movie. Celine Dion is among many talents featured on the Paramount Pictures 90th Anniversary CD of Memorable Songs which includes a wide variety of music. The title “My Heart Will Go On” is definitely some powerful words and the soft and beautiful sounds of Celine Dion make this one of the best love songs of all time.

10. To Make You Feel My Love - Garth Brooks

The plain and somewhat cold graphic on the CD cover for Garth Brooks - Tribute does not indicate the talent of this popular and famous country singer, However his clear voice and touching lyrics in the hit song “To Make You Feel My Love” will make many listeners want to hear more of his music.
