My (Bloody) Valentine’s Day List of Love Jams

I don’t know much about “love” songs and I am definitely not a fan of the R&B love-making music (just seems a bit too silly for this white boy). That said, here’s a quick list of my favorite indie rock love jams (plus one classic rock gem):

• “Sweet Avenue” by Jets to Brazil
• “I’ll Catch You” by Get Up Kids
• “Always Love” by Nada Surf
• “You Are The Everything” by R.E.M.
• “The Dress Looks Nice On You” by Sufjan Stevens
• “Think (Let Tomorrow Bee)” by Sebadoh
• “Love and Some Versus” – Iron and Wine
• “Skyway” by The Replacements
• “Chesterfield Kings” by Jawbreaker
• “The Way” by Bonnie Prince Billy
• “The Reasons” by The Weakerthans
• “Saro” by Samamidon
• “If Everything Fell Quiet” by Reindeer Section
• “Let My Love Open The Door” by Pete Townshend

What are your faves?
