How Deep Is Your Love? 8 Great Love Songs to Sing to Your Special Someone on Valentine’s Day
I have selected a song made famous by a female and by a male for each category, but you do you and sing the song you connect with most. Anything goes!
YOU’RE INVOLVED, BUT IT’S NOTHING SERIOUS YET
Right now it’s all about seduction! Impress your potential S.O. with a song that suggests more is to come.
Female: I Want a Little Sugar In My Bowl - Nina Simone
Sweet, simple, and playfully suggestive without being blatant, which could be too much at this early stage!
Male: Turn Your Lights Down Low - Bob Marley
Again, going for the seductive vibe without coming on too strong. Besides, is there anyone who doesn’t love Bob Marley?
FALLING IN LOVE…
Things have heated up and infatuation has started to turn to something deeper and more meaningful, you’re falling in love.
Female: Boom Clap - Charli XCX
Those butterflies, that pounding heart. That moment when you start to think this could be forever. This is your song.
Male: In Your Eyes - Peter Gabriel
Swoon worthy ever since John Cusack held up that boombox 30+ years ago, this is the song that will let your S.O. know they rock your world.
IN IT FOR THE LONG HAUL
You’ve been together for a while, weathered some storms, learned and have grown together. You are solid…solid as a rock!
Male: Thinking Out Loud - Ed Sheeran
If you can sing and play guitar, you can expect positive results with whatever you’re hoping to achieve with singing this song..unless you’re seventy years old, in which case your honey might start to get concerned that you’re ready to wrap things up. :P
Female: You’re Still the One - Shania Twain
One of several obvious choices for this list, it’s a slam dunk for this category. The range and movement of the melody make this song singable for most levels of vocal ability - bonus points.
A LOVE OF A LIFETIME
You may or may not have been together for a long time, but your love is the kind of love that goes down in history, the Romeo and Juliet kind of love…the Jack and Rose kind of love. Kinda just gave that one away, didn’t I?
Female: My Heart Will Go On - Celine Dion
Interestingly, my two choices for the highest level of relationship intensity are also the hardest two songs to sing on the list - they require range, power, and passion. So get your warm up on before belting out this big song for a big love.
Male: Unchained Melody - Righteous Brothers
I neeeeeeeeeeeed your love. Need I say more?
