My Valentine's Day Playlist #WriteAPageADay

I remember when I was in school, one of my friends had gifted me a cassette with some really nice Love songs, some of those still make me swoon and bring out the dormant "lover-girl" in me. Too much, huh!! That's me! Some of the songs are quite old and for many rusted/dusted/cliched. But I still get fascinated by these tunes, and fall in love every time I listen to these ( with the songs of course) 

Here are the  songs for my Valentine's Day playlist:

1. Mujhse Milne Ke Woh Karta Tha: This is a beautiful ghazal sung by Chitra Singh. The lyrics by Jagjit Singh convey old love and its memories, a little bitter - a little sweet. 


2. Everything I Do, I Do It for You: Bryan Adams and the magic of his husky voice- that's what this song is about. The music from the motion picture Robin Hood (I like the movie and Kevin Costner, too) has some soul-touching lyrics and a tune that touches the heart.


3. Nawazish Karam: This ghazal by Mehdi Hassan is a very sweet and light, charming song about a lover, describing the beauty of his love. 

 
 4. Right Here Waiting: This is a lovely song by Richard Marx- truly romantic from every aspect, right from the lyrics, and the soft music.


5. Nothing's Gonna Change My Love for You: This is perhaps the most popular Valentine's Day song, at least that I am aware of. I still remember a visit to Archie's Gallery and this George Benson song playing in the background. 


6. I Will Always Love You: Bodyguard, Kevin Costner and above all, Whitney Houston's mesmerising voice. I will always love this song.


7. My Cheri Amour: No Words...just Stevie Wonder and magic!!


There are many songs; however, I could think of seven that could be my companions on the Day of Love. Let me know which tunes bring out the lover in you.
