Ohh man Dave, you are my hero for knowing that Berlin is the band behind Take my Breath away! That song is ok... but the band is amazing. I saw them on bands reuinted and was like yess ive got their record. They were one of my first favourite bands (before I learned how to work the radio at around age 4 I actually listened to just my parents records)

Endless love by Lionel Richie and Diana Ross... you always have to go with soul. Hahaha, that and it was in Happy Gilmore... oh man hahahaha

[Dave]

Oh yeah, Endless Love is another one I need to add to my list! Thanks for the heads-up!

Sometimes when we touch...















...the honesty's too much...










...and I have to close my eyes and hide.








::writhes on the floor, singing::




I wanna hold you till I die...










...Till we both break down and cry...







...I wanna hold you...






...TILL THE FEAR IN ME SUBSIDES!



Hahaha. Sorry, couldn't resist.

God bless,

Whoa. Well, first off I have to discard any Madonna song. I have too much love for the [b]real[/b] Madonna to appreciate anything that girl from NYC ever did...


But, my list would have to include

In Your Eyes - Peter Gabriel
Caught Up In You - 38 Special


Well, that's all I Can think of right now......Maybe I'll think up more later....

5/2 - Fourth Sunday of Easter

Oh, definitely [i]Every Rose Has Its Thorn[/i] by Poison.

[prov31girl]

Until the end of time by Foreigner

[Thomas Michael]

"Almost Paradise" from Footloose - some of my friends sing my name to this song... and I can't blame them, it fits pretty well into the melody. But thanks to them this song creeps into my brain every once in a while.

Others:
"Purple Rain" by Prince
"Perfect Circle" and "You Are The Everything" by R.E.M.
"A Question of Lust" by Depeche Mode (actually it's not in the least bit obscene - if you can get past that word it's actually a real nice love song)
"Raise Your Hands To Heaven" by Breathe
"Catch" by The Cure
"True" by Spandau Ballet
"Always" by Atlantic Starr
"Tender Love" by New Edition
"Don't Dream It's Over" by Crowded House
"Woman" by John Lennon
"Heaven" by Bryan Adams

[Dave]

Oh yeah, Thomas, I just thought of some more to add to my list! You reminded me of some.

Hands To Heaven -- Breathe
Don't Dream It's Over -- Crowded House
Woman -- John Lennon
Secret Lovers -- Atlantic Starr
Friends And Lovers -- Gloria Loring and Carl Anderson
Almost Over You -- Sheena Easton
Total Eclipse Of The Heart -- Bonnie Tyler
