      “I'm in Love With You” by The 1975

      The 1975 truly captured the essence of romance with “I’m in Love With You” from their album Being Funny in a Foreign Language. The title alone conveys the depth of emotion, accompanied by upbeat rhythms and an uplifting atmosphere. This indie pop track serves as an enchanting tribute to the joy of being in love, reminding us of how special and exhilarating love can be. – Mitch Mosk

      “I Don't Want to Miss a Thing” by Aerosmith

      How do you recognize love? Perhaps it’s when your reality surpasses your dreams. According to Aerosmith, love means not wanting to close your eyes or sleep because you wouldn't want to miss a moment with your beloved. This touching rock ballad captures the intensity of treasuring precious moments together. – Lauren Turner

      “When the rain is pouring down, and my heart is heavy – you will always be there, this I know for sure.” These words encapsulate the essence of love's presence during our darkest times, be it romantic, platonic, familial, or anything in between. It’s a quintessential Alicia Keys track: straightforward yet filled with passion and genuine emotion. And that beat? It just makes you want to bob your head. – Christine Buckley

      “I Wanna Be Yours” by Arctic Monkeys

      There’s something profoundly beautiful in Alex Turner’s voice. His heartfelt plea to be everything his lover desires is a testament to the devotion many feel on a day like today. – Jada Moore

      “God Only Knows” by The Beach Boys

      Listening to “God Only Knows” always stirs my emotions, and I wouldn't have it any other way. This bittersweet love song by The Beach Boys is infused with the warmth and wonder of love, showcasing vulnerability at its finest: “I may not always love you, but as long as there are stars above you, you can be certain of my love.” Its groundbreaking nature and raw humanity continue to resonate even after 60 years. It’s a reminder that every moment of love is worthwhile, no matter the journey. – Mitch Mosk

      “Real Love” by The Beatles

      The Beatles began their legendary career with “Love Me Do” and built an empire of love songs, culminating in timeless classics. However, “Real Love” stands out among singles released after their breakup. With heartfelt lyrics about love and longing, John Lennon’s work — later completed by the band — confirms the enduring power of their music. It’s a beautiful journey that showcases love’s simplicity and universality. – David Diame

      “In My Life” by The Beatles

      Within the vast collection of Beatles love songs, none captures pure, tender heartache like “In My Life.” Lennon’s nostalgic reflection on cherished memories evokes profound meaning from our past, beautifully intertwining love and loss. It’s gentle, sentimental, and filled with the weight of life—“Though I know I'll never lose affection for those who came before, I’ll often pause and reflect; in my life, I love you more.” – Mitch Mosk

      I’ve always had a deep connection to Billy Joel’s Piano Man album – it was one of the first records I fell in love with as a child, and my appreciation has only deepened over the years, especially since moving to New York. Already a favorite, “You’re My Home” played right before I walked down the aisle, serving as a reminder that ‘home’ is not a location but a person, and when you're in love, you’re right where you belong. “Well, I’ll never be a stranger and I’ll never be alone. Wherever we’re together, that’s my home.” Timeless words reflect a timeless truth. – Mitch Mosk

      “3 Rounds and a Sound” by Blind Pilot

      I know I’m not alone in cherishing “this was our song.” I walked down the aisle to this timeless piece, which beautifully symbolizes intimacy and the warmth of being in love with someone who knows you completely.

      “So Far Away” by Carole King

      “So Far Away” is not a typical love song; it explores an often unrecognized aspect of love—loneliness. Carole King captures the emptiness of distance, defined not by insecurity but by a love so profound that its absence is felt deeply. – Josh Bloom

      My wife cherishes this song; it reminds her of me and the joy we share. Coldplay captures the simple beauty of love, distilling complex emotions into sweet lines like “Honey, you are a rock upon which I stand” and “I came
