Many songwriters express their feelings and emotions with song. They create a romantic ballad for the one they love and in turn, reaching out to many others who may be feeling the same way. People who are in love tend to relate to love songs, and enjoy listening to them. They not only relate to them, but feel someone else out there is feeling the same way. However, people who may be depressed or not in love, tend to shy away from love songs.

This proves there is definitely a relationship between music and love. Love comes pouring out of certain songs and makes us feel a sense of romance and longing. People often escape through music or find a release with it. Music has always been a great source of happiness, serenity, relaxation, and hope. The following are some examples of love songs we have heard throughout the years that have always made us feel at least one of these emotions:

  • I Will Always Love You
  • I Got You Babe
  • How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)
  • The Power of Love
  • I Can’t Fight This Feeling
  • Unchained Melody
  • Time After Time
  • The Way You Look Tonight

We use these songs in a variety of ways. Some examples would be Weddings, Anniversaries, and Birthdays to name a few. They help us to show someone how we love them.  The connection between music and love is usually obvious when we hear a romantic song, or certain songs make us reminisce about a certain someone, special event, or time in our lives.

Our lives can be shaped by music. Usually a certain time in our life goes with certain music, like a soundtrack. We tend to identify with music so much when we hear a song or artist we remember a certain time in our lives. And since love is so important in our lives, there is no question that the connection between music and love is very strong.

There are a number of ways we communicate with each other.  For example, we use language of various sorts—writing, speech, and sign language.  This would include the love poem and the love letter, not to mention the impassioned request on one’s knees for marriage.  We use visual means of communicating, such as signs and art—the lacy valentine traditional in February.  But a truly special way of communicating is through music.

The reason we have so many ways of communicating is that there are things that can only be expressed in one way.  It’s hard to ask for a salami sandwich by playing a Mozart sonata, so language is good for that.  But the feelings that go along with love are very difficult to put into words—and that’s why we have music.

There are many types of love music to choose from—every culture and form of music has some way to express love, which is not surprising, since both love and music are universal human experiences.  Classical music, particularly in the form of opera, has wonderful love music possibilities.  Opera was the soap opera of the pre-radio and television age, so love was a common theme.  Sometimes it was love that was lost and then found, as in the comic operas of Mozart or Rossini, and sometimes it was love found and then lost, as in La Boheme.  In any case, all these operas include great love arias (operatic for “song”).

In addition to opera, there are some pieces of music without words that we associate with weddings, such as “Here Comes the Bride,” which is actually the Bridal Chorus from Wagner’s opera Lohengrin, or Pachelbel’s canon which is often played at weddings.  These pieces of music have a stately feeling to them—solemn to a certain degree, but also with incredible beauty—which expresses the feelings we often have at weddings:  both happy and in awe at the power of love at the same time.

If classical music is not your favorite, you can find love in other types of music—country, rock, Cajun, old time, Celtic, jazz, and so forth.  After all, not only do you want to listen to music as you might with classical, but you will also want to dance together.  A slow rock song or country song (not the crying in your beer type, though) makes for great dancing possibilities.  In short, music helps us to communicate to our loved ones things that words cannot say.
