How could we not give you a great list of love songs this month? We had to. It’s nearly Valentine’s Day. But this list will come in handy all year long. Might be the perfect thing to listen to before a date night out on the town with your sweetie. Just print this list and then go to your favorite music online store, like iTunes, to download these titles into a “love playlist.” Enjoy.
(Like the cute “sweetheart skin” we found online for iPods and other MP3’s? You can see more of them at www.istyles.com or just click on the photo below and follow the link to where you can buy it. Costs about $6.)

The song Just Can’t Get Enough by Depeche Mode not only reminds me of young love (giving away my age now…) but it also makes me dance while doing housework – a great added benefit!
