Since its release in 2003, "Such Great Heights" remains an indie love classic. And it also remains impossible to hear the opening lyric, "I am thinking it's a sign / That the freckles in our eyes / Are mirror images and when/ We kiss they're perfectly aligned," without turning to absolute Jell-O inside.
Whimsical, upbeat, and sorrowful all at once, this alt-pop triumph from 2007 is simultaneously perfect for every single intense phase of love — the ups and the downs. It's absolutely gorgeous.
Taken from their 2012 Sports EP, "Curling" might not be the happiest of love songs, but it's certainly one of the most empowering. Perfect for playing at those times in a relationship when you're totally over it, the song proudly celebrates discovering the perspective and strength necessary to finally move the hell on from someone.
Smith wasn't exactly known for his love songs, but "Say Yes" stands out from the rest of his back catalogue as being his most uplifting and romantic track. But that's not to say it isn't still full of Smith's notorious self-deprecation, with lines like "Crooked spin can't come to rest / I'm damaged bad at best / She'll decide what she wants" boundi...
Admittedly the '80s were so stacked with unique love songs that the era probably deserves its own playlist, but "The Killing Moon" is easily the best of its kind from back then. Mystical, majestic, and almost unbearably poetic in its dark romanticism, the song is savage yet seductive.
Unique for its sweeping, down-tuned melodies juxtaposed with Buckley's ethereal, high voice, "So Real" is a loved up daydream of a song which dissolves into an anxious, frenzied breakdown right before the finale. It's truly haunting.
There are few words that could ever do this deeply unusual song justice, so I recommend that you just let you ears discover it on their own. "Curly Teeth" pairs dark and unsettling lyrics which tell the story of a truly terrible, one-sided love affair, paired with a stunning, jagged melody.
Featuring the supreme vocal talents of PJ Harvey, "Henry Lee" is a murder ballad (of which Cave is well-known) telling the story of a desire gone truly foul. Despite the violent subject matter, the song still manages to sound sumptuous, sincere, and heartfelt in its aggressive attempts at seduction.
Addressing the spaces and moments in which there is no one to pine for or give love to, "All The Night Without Love" is a breathtaking song about the true depths that loneliness can take.
So deliriously upbeat, full of boss rhymes, and pure in its sentiment, "Eye Know" is by far the greatest hip-hop love song ever written. Share an earbud with your honey and listen to it while holding hands, it's the best.

Picture the scene: It’s late 1955, and Elvis Presley is onstage wowing the small crowd in Amory, Mississippi. He’s been on tour with Johnny Cash, but this night is special because another Sun Records artist, Carl Perkins, is also on the bill. Cash and Perkins, both in their early 20s, their hair slicked and quiffed …
2 de mar. de 2020 · A long time ago on these pages or similar, I posted EC's Singles 1-2-3 with the bonus tracks separated into a fourth folder. Here's an update to that attempt to correct my mistakes from that old post, omissions from the Singles 1-2-3 box sets and expand it to Elvis' most recent singles/EPs with new material.
