I am yours and you are mine the way it should be

The Smithereens - A Girl Like You







Go ahead and call me cheesy for doing a show of love songs on Valentine's Day. The shoe fits. I couldn't help it. So I'm interrupting the "connected" theme this week for a group of my favorite tunes about love, requited and unrequited and all types in between. I must confess I am a sucker for more of the "Love Untold" type but I wanted to give equal airtime to the likes of "Another First Kiss" as well.

  • Billy Bragg - The Fourteenth of February
  • They Might Be Giants - Another First Kiss
  • Yo La Tengo - You Can Have It All
  • The Smithereens - A Girl Like You
  • Matthew Sweet - Girlfriend
  • Beulah - Popular Mechanics For Lovers
  • The Magnetic Fields - I Don't Believe You

  • Sloan - The Other Man

  • Luka Bloom - I Need Love
  • Jets to Brazil - In the Summer's When You Really Know

  • The Rosebuds - Wishing for Kisses
