56. Great list have most on my IPOD. You missed number #8 on the charts but #1 in my heart Ed Ames "My Cup Runneth Over". If I could sing (which I can't) one song to my wife this would be it.

58. You've completely ignored the early 50's. Tony Bennett "Because of You"; The Maguire Sisters "sincerely"; Don Cherry "Vanity"; a number of Frank Sinatra great songs; The Decastro Sisters "Teach Me Tonight"; Rosemary Clooney "Tenderly" and "Hey There"; The Andrew Sisters "With my eyes wide open"; More by Nat King Cole, and so many others.
The late 40's and early 50's had, by far, the greatest love songs; and they have been ignored on this survey. (But good work putting it together)

59. You have some great songs here but no greatest love song list is complete without including the late great Luther Vandross...he was the greatest ballad singer of all time

67. Didn't the list claim to be only a top 100 0f 50's and 60's songs? It's why I clicked on the link so I didn't expect to see anything newer than that. Great list though. I might have changed where some of the songs placed, but that's just personal opinion. Enjoyed it alot cause that's what my parents had on the radio and stereo when I was growing up. Nice walk down memory lane.

68. No. 1 Romantic song of all time bar none... "Misty."
Posted at 9:53PM on Jul 30th 2010 by locornnr
69. Donny Hathaway's version of A Song For You. Absolute perfection!
Posted at 9:56PM on Jul 30th 2010 by Marsha
70. In My Life by the Beatles definitely, We've Only Just Begun since it is the number one wedding song (including my wedding), but to list Happy Together when you overlook Sixteen Candles is a sin against a beautiful and timeless coming of age song sung by a voice we will never here the likes of again - Johnny Maestro.
Posted at 9:57PM on Jul 30th 2010 by Anne
71. One hundred love songs and no "Charish" nor "You are so beautiful"
Obviously article written by someone who wasn't there and is reading off a list.
Posted at 9:58PM on Jul 30th 2010 by Ray
72. I don't see "The Air that I Breathe" n this list...should be in the top 20 at least.
Posted at 9:59PM on Jul 30th 2010 by Christine Rotgers
73. "If" by Bread -- "And when my love for life is running dry, you come and pour yourself on me!"
Posted at 10:25PM on Jul 30th 2010 by Steve
74. Me and my husband's song is Endless Love by Lionel Ritchie and Diana Ross. That is such a powerful and beautiful song. I also like Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison, Wonderful Tonight reminds me of my college boyfriend, and Am I That Easy to Forget always brings me back in high school years and my high school sweetheart. Those Were The Days My Friends, so I Packed and Left on A Jet Plane.

75. Don't forget "Love The World Away" by Kenny Rogers
it's so loving, haunting and melodic
Posted at 10:22PM on Jul 30th 2010 by Christina
76. Some of the 50's and 60's songs I really thought would have made the list were Johnny Rivers "Poor Side of Town", Van Morrison "Brown Eye Girl", The Guess Who "These Eyes" and for soul sound it's Al Green and Percy Sledge. If you do a list for the 70's you can't forget H&O's "She's a bitch Girl" and EJ's "The bitch is back" LOL

77. I love Here, There & Everywhere by the Beatles.

"Then Came You" - The Spinners and Dionne Warwick
Not to mention several songs by The Fifth Dimension, the Chi-Lites, Al Green, Teddy Pendergrass, etc.

88. Don Gibson, Sea of Heartbreak
Posted at 10:38PM on Jul 30th 2010 by John
89. Wow! What a list! I just spent two hours playing some of the songs. You Belong To Me is my favorite song of all time but there are surely other that might have made this list. Sinatra's Witchcraft and The Lady is a Tramp, Beatle's Yesterday, and what happened to EJ. So many great songs and so little time!

90. 5 words that say everything about love.

93. Love leters in the sand, P.B.
Posted at 10:39PM on Jul 30th 2010 by les
94. the skyliners are the best all-time ballad singers. and two of their best were in your list. i would add "when a man loves a woman" percy sledge, "till" the angels, and "oh my angel" by bertha tillman. There are dozens more of course.

95. Well lets see I did not see any thing by Styx, Air Supply, Abba, Journey, Pink Floyd, Moody Blues, Celine Dion, Enya, Asia, Fornener, Reba, Alabama, Petra, White Heart, Keith Green, Silverwind, Denis DeYoung,... and many many others?
My #1 Love song is "Jesus Loves Me" song by many all over the world.
Here are some other songs jusrt off the top of my head I see you have left out for an unknown reason,
"Paradise" - Styx
"When you Love a Women" - Journey
"The Power of Love - Air Supply and Celine Dion
"I Remeber Love" - Air Supply
"I'll Be Thinking of You" - Air Supply
"You Were Always On My Mind" - Elvis Presley & Willie Nelson & The Pet Shop Boys
"Beth" - KISS
"Destiny" - Silverwind
I mean most of Air Supply's & Asia's Music is Love songs and you all did not even put any of there music on your list,and where is all the Country Music Love Songs, maybe next time you will ask the people who buy the CD's and buy the Tickets who get there music and enjoy hearing it and playing it and are not paid to "like a song".
I know I would be more then willing to help you make a new list and include Music from the 20's 30's 40's 50's 60's 70's 80's 90's 2000- 2010 all music.

96. Toni Braxton's "Breathe Again", the sexiest love song ever sung by a female that I've heard in my life! Honorable mention to Neil Young's classic - "Harvest Moon."
Posted at 10:47PM on Jul 30th 2010 by Mike

Posted at 10:50PM on Jul 30th 2010 by Mike
99. Uh, oh, I forgot - "I'm Stone in Love With You" (Stylistics) especially the part about "the owner of the first house on the moon." GREAT and imaginative lyrics, very romantic too!
Posted at 10:52PM on Jul 30th 2010 by Mike
