There are all kinds of things that can happen when love is involved. It can be a match made in heaven, one-sided (unrequited), or even a complete disaster. As artists, songwriters and singers cover all of these areas. So let's rack our brains and make ultimate playlists for each of these scenarios.

ps- I know there are other ways romance can end up, but I'm not going to spend ALL my time on this.

LAST UPDATED: 2/15/10 2:05pm

NOTE: I may have placed songs in two areas or in an area slightly different from that specified if I thought it suited the song. Also INDIE music of all genres is just placed within the broader genre. Example: I would put Sufjan Stevens in "Folk" (or occasionally "Funky") although he is technically "Indie Folk/Americana" If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. ^-^

RULES:
*Please stick to romantic love. I know that one can love platonically just as strongly as one can love romantically, but this holiday is known for it's focus on romance
*Please fill out the forms instead of just writing whatever. It will help me to organize all of this later. Thanks!
*Be respectful
*Feel free to chat
*Feel free to analyze lyrics
*Feel free to attempt to cover songs and post them on youtube and then on here! That would be so cool. O.O
* LISTEN TO CAPTAIN HOWDY:

Lyrics: The Song is a duet

I opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light
Walking down by the bay, on the shore, staring up at the planes that aren’t there anymore
I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold
Like an introvert, I drew my over shirt
Around my arms and began to shiver violently before
You happened to look and see the tunnels all around me
Running into the dark underground
All the subways around create a great sound
To my motion fatigue: farewell
With your ear to a seashell
You can hear the waves in underwater caves
As if you actually were inside a saltwater room

Time together isn't ever quite enough
When you and I are alone, I’ve never felt so at home
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
We need time, only time
When we're apart, whatever are you thinking of?
If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone?
So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
All the time, all the time

Can you believe that the crew has gone and wouldn’t let me sign on
All my islands have sunk in the deep, so I can hardly relax or even oversleep
I feel as if I were home some nights, when we count all the ship lights
I guess I'll never know why sparrows love the snow

We’ll turn out all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow


So tell me darling, do you wish we’d fall in love?
All the time.

Time together isn't ever quite enough
When you and I are alone, I’ve never felt so at home
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
We need time, only time
When we’re apart whatever are you thinking of?
If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone?
So tell me darling, do you wish we’d fall in love?
All the time, all the time

Time together isn't ever quite enough
When we’re apart whatever are you thinking of?
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
So tell me darling, do you wish we’d fall in love?
All the time

Lyrics:

I guess I'm trying to say I'm sorry,
But it always comes out wrong,
I think a part of you still loves me,
Even though we're moving on.

Always, all ways I wanted us to be,
Always, all ways you and me,
And I wait here on my own,
And I wait for you to see,
All the time I spend alone now won't comfort me,

Always all ways...

And I'm sorry for what happened,
But I want you there to see,
That I'm changing all my actions,
I don't wanna set you free.

Always, all ways I want to see you through
Always, all ways me and you
And I wait here on my own,
And I wait for you to see,
All the time I spend alone now won't comfort me.

'Cause I'm waiting for you,
Yeah, I'm waiting for you,
Give me answers, get me through,
I will wait...

Always, all ways I wanted us to be,
Always, all ways you and me,
And I wait here on my own,
And I wait for you to see,
All the time I spend alone now won't comfort me.

'Cause I'm waiting for you,
And I'll wait here for you,
Give me answers, give me through,
I will wait...

'Cause I'm waiting for you,
Yeah I'm waiting for you,
Give me answers, get me through,
I will wait...

Always, all ways
