10 Awesome Valentine’s Day Songs

1.     “I Really Like You” by Carly Rae Jepsen. Valentine’s day is all about fun and playfulness, and this Carly Rae Jepsen song embodies all of that. Maybe you’re not quite in love yet, but if you really, really, really, really like someone, then this can be your V-day song.

2.    “Still Into You” by Paramore. Another fun pop song, this Paramore song is a real bop. If your long-term partner still gives you butterflies when you see them, then stash this song on your Valentine’s day playlist.

5.    “Sweet Lady” by Tyrese. If you’re in need of a good 90s R&B slow jam for the nighttime Valentine’s Day celebration, this Tyrese song is a classic. With smooth vocals and an edgy feel, it stays romantic without being too sappy.

6.    “For You I Will” by Monica. This is an all-time hit song. The lyrics are awesome, and Monica’s voice does not disappoint. Whether you like singing along or lip-syncing, this song is a requirement for any Valentine’s day playlist.

10. “You Go To My Head” by Billie Holiday. This list isn’t right without at least one Billie Holiday song. Her quirky voice and sultry lyrics can put anyone in the mood for love. This song is the perfect soundtrack to a candle-lit dinner and drinks.

Valentine’s Day isn’t complete without chocolates, red wine, and the perfect loving playlist.
