nameless_girl Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Ah, it's unfair - there are so many good songs that sound wonderful when dedicated to a girl, but dodgy when dedicated to a guy. Like Bob Dylan's "Lay Lady Lay" for example I'll have to think about this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adnan Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Another addition to my list: Can't Help Falling in Love- Elvis, UB40, Andrea Bocelli (Bocelli's version is my favorite)Here's the song I mentioned (Aisha- Cheb Khalid):http://www.filelodge.com/files/room24/6335...20-%20Aicha.mp3and the lyrics are:Comme si je n'existais pasElle est passée à côté de moiSans un regard, Reine de SabbatJ'ai dit Aïcha prends tout est pour toiVoici les perles, les bijouxAussi l'or autour de ton couLes fruits bien mûrs au goût de mielMa vie Aïcha si tu m'aimesJ'irais où ton souffle nous mèneDans les pays d'ivoire et d'ébèneJ'effacerais tes larmes tes peinesRien n'est trop beau pour une si belleOooh!Aïcha... Aïcha... écoute-moiAïcha... Aïcha... t'en vas pasAïcha... Aïcha... regarde-moiOooh!Aïcha... Aïcha... réponds-moiJe dirais les mots les poèmesJe jouerais les musiques du cielJe prendrais les rayons du soleilPour éclairer tes yeux de rêvesOooh!Aïcha... Aïcha... écoute-moiOooh!Aïcha... Aïcha... t'en vas pasElle a dit garde tes trésorsMoi je vaux mieux que tout çaDes barreaux sont des barreaux même en orJe veux les mêmes droits que toiDu respect pour chaque jour moi je ne veux que l'amour[Je te veux Aicha et je meurs pour tois[Ceci est le conte de ma vie et de mon amour][Tu es ma respiration et ma vie][J'ai envie de vivre avec seulement toi]Aïcha... Aïcha... écoute-moiAïcha... Aïcha... t'en vas pasAïcha... Aïcha... réponds-moiThat song is so brilliant, even I melt for it. I don't even know of a single girl who can resist it. Of course you have to understand the lyrics to appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ohdistortedsmile1789 Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Pixies, "Winterlong"That's a cover of Neil Young.Santana, best choice so far, "Don't Worry Baby" could compete.I'll take Miles Davis playing "It Never Entered My Mind", or maybe "I Loves You Porgy" over most anything.With vocals, "Indian Summer" from The Doors is very lovely. Mario Lanza singing "Be My Love" also. Tyrannosaurus Rex's "Dove". I consider The Smiths' "Paint A Vulgar Picture" a love song...I like a lot of love songs, most songs in the pantheon of popular music are love songs.
