Every song seems to be a love song, doesn’t it? You can’t even walk around the grocery store without hearing a song over the loudspeaker that pulls at your heartstrings. No artist ever seems to like singing about trees or bottles of water or fingernails, or just anything other than love… and for good reason. Love, when healthy and true, rules the universe. Even presidents, who manage wars and economies, need love.

But before you think about leaving your lover, your husband, or your sugar pie, sink your soul into these heartfelt hits. Some are classic, others are new. But the common denominator is that they’ll leave you with a sentimental feeling.
