The Best Love Songs of the Past 50 Years
Our love quotes of the week are so popular, we decided to introduce a new regular feature: In addition to the love quote of the week, we will introduce the love song of the week. But not any old love song, but the best love song of the year for each of the past 50 years. We’ll start in 1960 and work our way forward from there, introducing one song per year each week. We will list all 50 love songs here, as they are published, until we have the complete list by the beginning of next year.
