Favourite love song? (house, ballad, album, Paul McCartney, Fugazi)

I hear that song all the time in the grocery store I work at - Not meaning to rip on your taste, every song means something different to each person - but because I hear it so often, I've gotten really tired of it... but that's just my personal story of the effects of overexposure to music...

Crowded House / Neil Finn really knows how to write a great love song...

Whether it be proclaiming love and devotion in songs like Fall at Your feet, Something So Strong, Nails in My Feet and Distant Sun... or if he is singing about the anguish involved with love in songs like Better Be Home Soon, Don't Dream its Over, Private Universe, Fingers of Love and my personal favorite, Into Temptation...

Each is a little tour into the dark and light side of love and human relations, and the sense of yearing, and sometimes even desperation is all pervading.

Excellent songwriter indeed.

Fingers Of Love is a magnificent track. I have a lot of time for Crowded House's music. Well crafted Guitar pop. Together Alone is probably my favourite album.

Isn't it just a great album, full of gems... its possibly the edgiest Crowded House album made... it's got alot of desperate sounding stuff, like Black and White Boy, Private Universe, Locked Out - yet its all tempered with some of Neil Finns most sublime ballads and despairing slowburns... Nails in my Feet, Fingers of Love, the title track and even Distant Sun...

Totally a highlight of the band's career.

Wembly, Candyskins. off the album- Fun?

Her's a song from me to you,
I hope you understand it.
I can't forget the day we met, I loved you oh so madly.
All the things i used to do,
I gave them up so Gladly.
Do you remember getting drunk,
on Uncle Derriks brandy?
We were sick, yea we were young'
I wanted you so badly.
it's 1966 again and a love as big as Wembley...Tell me.
