Other greatest loves

Apart from self-esteem mentioned the other day, other songs reflect on other great loves:

- Madonna - Little Star - "God gave a present to me, made of flesh and bone" - beautiful song about Madonna's daughter - "you breathe new life into my broken heart". (I hope that one day I'll have a daughter and sing this song to her.)

- Tori Amos - Winter - "He says, when you're gonna make up your mind, when you gonna love you as much as I do?" - this one is about the love of a father "I put my hand on my father's mitten" and also about the loss of innocence.

- Eminem - 97' Bonnie & Clyde - "Baby you're da-da loves you, and I'm always gonna be here for you no matter what happens, you're all I got in this world" - awww, sweet father and daughter thing.

- Oasis - Songbird - "Gonna write a song so she can see, give her all the love she gives to me, Talk of better days that are yet to come, never felt this love for anyone" - I thought this was about a daughter but, no, it's about Nicole Appleton.

- James Taylor - You've got a friend - the only song I can remember with friend on the title...anyway "You just call out my name and you know wherever I am, I'll come running to see you again" - are you sure you have no other intentions, James?

- Prince - Nothing compares to you - love, love, romantic love..."It's been so alone without you here, like a bird without a song" (also Sinead O'Connor has the most amazing grey eyes in her video...)

- Air - Playground Love - I'm a highschool lover and you're my favourite flavour" teen love - "you're the piece of gold that flushes all my soul"

- George Michael - Fast Love - he knows what is talking about, he was looking for some fast love in the toilets. "Baby I'm not Mr. Right but if you're looking for some fast love, if that's love in your eyes, it's more than enough" - you should be ASHAMED ;P

- Unknown - Music was my first love and it will be my last, music of the future and music of the past" - couldn't agree more :)

- James - Goal Goal Aoal - "I'm in love with the football club, at the age of 7 my father took me, he got me hooked into this game" - apparently, you can also love a club (I wouldn't know, lol, kidding)

Last but not least...
- Bob Marley - One Love - "One love, one heart, let's get together and feel alright" - Universal Love, that's the greatest love of all :)

Steve: you've got a point, but it's an open list, so keep them ideas coming :)

Valerene: I was looking through my playlist and thinking about the various types of love there. I think the author of "music was my first love" is john miles, never heard of him..

Spoon: thank you, I guess - I just chose them, bravo to the artists ;)

Fork: Hello! Yes, I'm free for now. Hurray :) (is this how hurray is written? I'm not sure but you get the point)
