In Your Eyes - Peter Gabriel
Love Song - The Cure
Feel Like Making Love - Bad Company
You Do Something to Me - Cole Porter
Deja Voodoo - Kenny Wayne Shepard
(Okay, so there’s a slight voodoo theme!)
Ewan McCall, “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face”. The fact that this song has been mentioned a few times makes me love the SDMB more than I already did.
Anyone for Stan Rogers, “45 Years”? Or Tom Waits (pretty much anything?)
Lola, Tom Waits is a master at drunken love songs. “San Diego Serenade” and “Take it With Me” are among the best.
“I Hope That I Don’t Fall In Love With You” probably falls in the anti-love song category, though.
RIP, Bobby Hatfield, 1/2 of the Righteous Bros, died Nov 5, 2003. We’ve lost that lovin’ feelin’.

Don’t Know Much - Linda Rhonstat & Aaron Neville
Will You Still Love Me? - Chicago
Against All Odds - Phil Collins
How Do I Get You Alone? - Heart
But there are many other fantastic ones, and I can’t say I’m that firm about any of these selections (except the first) as being specifically in the top 5.
