5 love songs you should put on repeat right now

Summer is here and we all know it is the great time to catch us some little love. Whether you're young or old as hell we all need love in our life. I have love and love again after a relationship ended and love comes stronger and wiser with each time. Love is such a powerful feeling but it is so hard to put words around it, you just understand love when you have and see it.

I used to listen to these songs as a child thinking the cheesiness and silliness of the songs, but when you grow up and become wiser these wordsmiths that concocted these songs actually shares something about themselves about how they all felt about loving somebody and that it is pretty relatable to all of us.

5 - Mr. Big - To Be With You.

"I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you'll feel it too
Waited on a line of greens and blues
Just to be the next to be with you"

A song that was released in 1991 and became popular and took the number one spot on the US charts.

Accordingly, to Eric Martin, who wrote this song, it is about a man who loves a woman that was left broken hearted from a previous relationship. It comes from Eric's past when he had a huge crush on a girl back in high school that he knew and who told him about her boy problems. It is an anthem of friend zoned ness but the song is catchy and relatable to every nice guy out there who goes through the same thing.

4 - Extreme - More Than Words

"How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
'Cause I'd already know"

A ballad released in 1990. It is a simply made song only with finger picking guitar style and vocals of Gary Cherone and Nuno Bettencourt.
Nuno came up with the song just jamming on a porch one summer day and the melody just came to him quickly. When he brought the song to Cherone they wrote the lyrics and put the song together.

The lyrical meaning of the song is also quite simple. Words alone does not hold together a relationship, you need to actively show it and keep working for it to keep love alive. It's a mature song and catchy.

3 - All-4-one - I Swear

"And I swear by the moon and the stars in the sky I'll be there
I swear like the shadow that's by your side I'll be there
For better or worse till death do us part
I'll love you with every beat of my heart
And I swear"

Released in 1994 as a RnB ballad by the four-man group All-4-One. The lyrics tell of a man who definitely wanted somebody so bad, a love-starved wordsmith that knows what to say to put any naive women that's longing for someone that truly love them beyond earth. Actually, it is a great tune and definitely one that should be put on repeat every day.

2 - K-ci & JoJo - All My Life

"And all my life I've prayed for someone like you
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you
All my life I've prayed for someone like you
And I hope that you feel the same way too
Yes, I pray that you do love me too"

Another RnB ballad did by the duo K-ci and Jojo. Released back on June 17, 1998, this almost 2 decades old song was on repeat on all radio stations worldwide over due to its commercial success and held that spot for 35 goddamn weeks. The song is considerate an anthem to every successful love stories there is and not only that but it was spiritually well written as well which make the meaning of the song to be about all kinds of love we encounter in our life. A fun fact is the song is inspired by JoJo's, real name Joel Hailey, daughter as he used her for inspiration.

1 - Bob Marley & The Wailers - Is This Love

"I want to love you, and treat you right
I want to love you, every day and every night
We'll be together, with a roof right over our heads
We'll share the shelter, of my single bed"

The Love song of all Love songs written by the one and only Bob Marley. This legend immortalized was not from this world. A genius both lyrically but also a great human to ever lived in our lifetime. He sang about everything we are all dealing with and he knew how to put words on them and made us understand better. If Bob Dylan would receive the Nobel Prize for literature for songwriting, Bob Marley would have received the Nobel Peace and Love prize for making us all understand. This is also a song that is playing every time I make sweet love because Bob Marley taught me that. Bob Marley knew the simplest things in life cannot be bought with money or power, something you love is far more valuable.

So if you haven't heard these songs before, then you should probably start listening. If you have I hope you put these on repeat and lay on the bed all day. Because love songs are amazing.
