The Beatles - "I Will"

Another sweet and simple Beatles love song that I like.

The lyrics are a little non-sensical...how could the protagonist/singer not have learned the beloved's name??...and that makes the relationship sound rather trivial plus suggests they wrote the lyrics partly for the rhyme, rather than primarily for the meaning.

Other than that, the song has very sweet sentiments, even though they broke the Cardinal Songwriting Rule: "Never rhyme 'heart' with 'apart.'" I like the fun horse clippety-cloppety percussion sound that sneaks in beginning around 1:00 in the song and gets stronger and stronger toward the end.

Elvis - "Love me Tender"

This was one of the first love ballads I heard while growing up and to this day I find it very sweet and moving.

From the movie "Love Me Tender" (which I've never watched) starring the beautiful Debra Paget and Elvis:

Duncan Dhu: A tientas ("Groping About").



"Pienso en otoños que ya fueron, ................................ I think of past autumns,
pienso en inviernos que volvieron. ................................ I think of winters that came back.
Sin ti no es igual. ................................ Without you, it's not the same.

Busqué en tus ojos mi destierro, ................................ I looked for my exile into your eyes,

sigo tus pasos, voy a tientas. ................................ I follow your footsteps, I'm groping about.
Dí: ¿a dónde van? ................................ Tell me: where do they go to?

Quise llorar ................................ I wanted to cry

por tí y por mí ................................ for you and me
un día más. ................................ one more day.

La Luna esconde su mirada y yo... ................................ The Moon hides her glance and I...

...yo quiero conquistarla. ................................ ...I want to win her heart.
Ya ves, todo sigue igual. ................................ As you see, everything remains the same.

Un llanto lento, un llanto amargo, ................................ A low crying, a bitter crying,

un llanto, al fin, desesperado, y yo... ................................ a desperate crying at last, and I...
...yo aún no sé llorar. ................................ ...I still can't cry.

Y quise soñar ................................ And I wanted to dream

por ti y por mí ................................ for you and me
un día más. ................................ one more day.

Y no me asusta gritar ................................ And I'm not afraid to cry out

tu nombre en la oscuridad ................................ your name in the dark
en este exilio que ................................ in this exile that
me has obligado a compartir. ................................ you've made me share.

Es como un filo de navaja ................................ Like a knife edge:

este camino que ahora sigo, amor, ................................ thus is the way I follow now, sweetheart,
no volveré. ................................ I won't come back.

Y quise llorar ................................ And I wanted to cry

por tí y por mí ................................ for you and me
un día más. ................................ one more day.

Quise soñar ................................ I wanted to dream

por tí y por mí ................................ for you and me
un día más. ................................ one more day.

Lucky! That's a sweet song to have your boyfriend sing for and about you.

The Beatles - "Across The Universe"
I view this song, which is one of my favorites, as a love song for life rather than just for a single individual.

There are many love songs I enjoy, but this one I really like as it's a cross between Opera and Dance... aside from that Anna Netrebko has an amazing voice.

Philipp Kirkorov & Anna Netrebko - La Voix
