There are more songs about love, than about any other topic. New love, old love....unrequited love, broken love. Who hasn't listened to a song and thought "now that's the way I wish someone felt about ME!". So that sort of got me thinking as to what would be 10 songs that I would've loved to have written about me. (Or dedicated to me!)
(The caveat to this is, of course there are millions of songs to choose from - and this list could change at any given moment depending upon the mood, time - or of course, songs that just aren't coming to mind at the moment. )
1. Ain't no Sunshine When She's Gone - Bill Withers
2. If I didn't have you - Amanda Marshall
3. All that Is - Garnet Rogers
4. She's got a Way - Billy Joel
5. A Chance - Kenny Chesney
6. Can't nobody love you like I do - Wynonna Judd
7. Emotionally Yours - Bob Dylan
8. A Kiss to Build a Dream On - Louis Armstrong
9. She's Always a Woman to Me - Billy Joel
10. Keeper of the Stars - Tracy Byrd
What songs would you choose at the moment?

The song that really comes to mind is one recorded by John Denver called, "For You." I think it has the loveliest words I've ever heard..and the melody is beautiful as well.
I would love to have several of the love songs dedicated to me....sung to me too. Ahhh, if only my hubby could sing! LOL

That is a pretty interesting topic. I've never really thought that much about love songs.
This IS interesting. I wonder if it's a guy/girl thing? Although I wrote a few of the things back in my band days, I have never even considered that a love song could be written about me. Huh.
You're My Home - Billy Joel (says it all)
Ain't Nobody (does me better than you)- Chaka Khan (No explination necessary)
Waiting in Vain - Bob Marley or Annie Lennox (I always wanted someone to pine away for me endlessly)
Sweetest Taboo - Sade
I'll Always Love You - Taylor Dayne
Better Together - Jack Johnson
