This blog series is inspired by the near perfect love song "The Glory of Love" by Peter Cetera. I thought it's time to do another extensive blog series about the all-time best love songs. This is the best love songs, all kinds of songs relating to love and relationships. The sappy ballad, the falling in love/ new love song, the angry/ anti-love song and any related song that fits in between those two moods. The lust, love, hate, reconciliation, tearing apart, the sublime, the waiting, the heartbreak and anything else that goes along with our most complicated emotion.
