Three Great Love Songs

I feel we need a bit of music talk around molly.com. I’m thinking about top three love songs. My choices today:

  • Northern Sky – Nick Drake
  • You Do Something to Me – Paul Weller
  • Wonderful Tonight – Eric Clapton

Somehow I’ve ended up choosing three sentimental tunes from soulful Brits. Go figure! I think the Clapton might be a weakish choice, with better contenders if I really had to give it more thought, but the song’s always held a certain sweet spot for me so there you have it.

Show me your love!
