iRiShBaBe, I've been single all my life. It's not all bad (just sometimes). And, after all, even without Holy Matrimony, love is a wonderful thing. Oh God!!! I just quoted Michael Boulton! @#$#!!!^%$#&&!!!!

oh my
dimming of the day and vincent black lightning both throw me every time, i am especially fond of the greg brown version of the latter.
other than that
time has told me-nick drake
by weary well-robin williamson
(why don't more people sing that one!!!!)
first girl i loved also by robin williamson
case of you-joni mitchell
flow gently sweet afton- oh god just a lovely song
i am a youth that's incllined to ramble-paul brady
but the real killer for me is june tabor's rendition of one of les barker's "serious" songs, "the turn in the road"...can anyone find me the words to this gem?

Thought I had a rare one, but Mickey 191 had it; see 05-03 post, "Come to Me Bend to Me"; from "Brigadoon", yes?

Hopefully I'm not repeating anyone else's. These are some of the songs I would sing to my lover:

Can't Help Falling In Love - Elvis
Here There Everywhere - Beatles
Feels So Right - Alabama
Stand By Me - Ben E. King
In the Still of the Night - 5 Satins
Sea of Love - Phil Phillips
You Are My Sunshine - Various
All I Have to Do is Dream - Everly Bros.
My Girl - Temptations

Then she left me and I can't listen to love songs anymore, much less sing them. Except for the sad ones, like

Love Has No Pride - Linda Ronstadt, or
Red is the Rose - Ferris Sisters (?) off a Chieftains album

Oh well.
Bill

Interesting thread this - fits the "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" requirements for a bride which does fit the overall theme.

A couple of wild cards:
I Got Over You a Long Long Time Ago   - Mike McLellan
My Love Is Like a Red Red Rose   - sung by Kenneth McKellar
Forty Five Years - Stan Rogers

Cheers

Dave

Hey Mickey, I fell in love with Come to Me, Bend to Me the first time I heard it. I heard it two years ago in a high school production, sung by a skinny-legged 16 year old boy in a kilt, and I still loved it! I remember someone commenting that the introductory interval in that song is the "sensuous interval." It's the same one as in Music of the Night (from Phantom of the Opera).
