Top 5 Most Romantic Songs

In honor of Valentine's Day, and because I'm really into one of the bands on this list, I've compiled a list of what are, in my opinion, the most romantic songs ever, along with my reasoning. Note that the order has no value, as I couldn't rate one over another.

1. I Will Follow You Into the Dark- Death Cab for Cutie:
OK, I know that this one is kind of cliché, but it's just so sweet! I mean he's so in love that he'll follow the object of his affection even after they've died.

2. You Could Be Happy- Snow Patrol:
This one is really sad, but it's full of love. It's about realizing what you have after it's gone.

3. Antonia- Motion City Soundtrack:
This song is really quirky and fun, in accordance with MCS's style. It's basically an ode to this girl Antonia and all her fun and lovable habits.

4. Marching Bands of Manhattan- Death Cab for Cutie:
"If I could open my arms to span the length of the isle of Manhattan, I'd bring it to where you are, making a lake of the East River and Hudson, If I could open my mouth wide enough for a marching band to march out, they would make your name sing, and bend through alleys and bounce off all the buildings."

5. Baby I'm Yours- Arctic Monkeys
It's actually a love ballad from the '40s, but it's really sweet.

Those are my Top 5 most romantic songs. Happy Valentines Day!!
