Love Songs in the 21st century

Love songs are constantly changing some of them are slow and meaningful, such as “I Will Always Love You” by Whitney Houston or “A Thousand Years” by Christina Perri. Then there are songs like “Wanted” by Hunter Hayes that are about love in a different sort of way. What about the songs about love at first sight as well? And with every song about love there is also those songs about heartbreak that you can’t forget about.

There are just as many, if not more, songs about heartbreak; as there are about loving someone in the moment and not in the past. Songs such as “Stitches” by Sean Mendes, or “Whiskey Lullaby” by Brad Paisley and Alison Krauss almost any song by Taylor Swift. Some songs such “We are Never Getting Back Together”, “Mean”, “Back to December”, etc. There is too many songs about heart break or a bad break up written by her to name. But she also has songs that just about love in general.

Songs such as “Our Song” or “Love Story” or even “Mine”. I have absolutely nothing against Taylor Swift, I admire her for what she does, she sings about things most people wouldn’t even think about singing about, or just things that people don’t want to realize is going on.

There are even country songs about love, but in a different way. They aren’t all about the lovey dovey part of love, they sing about the down to earth part of it, where they can connect to people on a heart to heart level. There are even songs about break ups in country music as well. But not as many as other types of music.

So no matter what kind of music you like to listen to, next time you turn on the radio don’t just listen to the words, actually think about what the words are trying to say. Sometimes what they are trying to say in the world is more important than the words or rhythm themselves.
