"MOOD FOR LOVE: UNFORGETTABLE LOVE SONGS FOR THE SOUL"
By P.Kea Dated: January 02, 2024
The best written and sung love songs are unforgettable & timeless, aren't they? There's something about the way they capture emotions, whether it's the classics or the modern hits. From the 50s to the 2000s there are treasure troves of love songs, each with its own vibe.
The '90s had those heartfelt ballads and R&B jams that were all about pouring your heart out, while the 2000s brought a mix of soulful tunes and a bit more modern sound. The '90s had iconic tracks like "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston, and "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith. These songs had a raw emotion that just hit you right in the feels.
Then came the 2000s with tunes like "Fallin'" by Alicia Keys, and "Versace on the floor" by Bruno Mars. They had a blend of soul, pop, and R&B that created a different kind of romantic atmosphere. All decades had their own style, but I think it comes down to personal taste and what speaks to your heart.
These 102 love songs span various genres from soul to pop, showcasing a selection of diversified love songs that was chosen based on tempo and lyrics, and not based on popular billboard charts and radio play. These songs focus on the sweeter side of love without delving too much into heartbreak.
Some songs in this list will have two or more artists listed because the same song was sung by two or more artists.
