Songs To Make You Love Again

[adalberg]

I'm not sure how many people take part in this community any more. But for those of you still around, I've got a request/challenge for you. Suppose you knew one of the hardest, most jaded people in the world. They haven't loved someone sincerely in years. If you wanted to make them love again, what song/songs/album would you suggest they listen to?

Wow.. I feel sorry for whomever you're suggesting, but I'll give it a try. 'Why' by Stabbing Westward, or 'I Do' by Placebo, or 'Love Song' by The Cure.

Tell them to listen to "Since I Left You" by The Avalanches... it's electronic, and sample-based at that, but it's literally the encyclopedia of sample albums, and it has HEART, that will make you smile, dance, and believe in love again by the last wash of "I try but I just can't help it, ever since the day I left you..."

The Flaming Lips - The Soft Bulletin. case in point: made ME believe in love again. the song "Suddenly Everything Has Changed" will change a person.

Do the listen to love songs at all
