I made my gf an ipod playlist for today, each song has a different picture of us with it. Pretty standard obvious stuff, but she likes to sing along and shit so I mostly went with shit she was familiar with...


Nina Simone- Wild is the Wind (thanks to the Nina thread on here! This song is unreal)
Sam Cooke- You Send Me
Nat King Cole- (I Love You) For Sentimental Reasons
The Drifters- Some Kind of Wonderful
The Crystals- There's No Other Like My Baby
Bill Withers- Ain't No Sunshine
The Beach Boys- God Only Knows
Aretha Franklin- Baby I Love You
Etta James- At Last
Mad Lads- Don't Have to Shop Around
Stevie Wonder- You Are the Sunshine of My Life
Al Green- I'm Still in Love With You
The Impressions- Just Another Dance
The Flamingos- I Only Have Eyes For You
The Temptations- My Girl
Tammi Terrell- All I Do Is Think About You
Marvin Gaye- Crazy 'Bout My Baby
Frankie Avalon- Venus
Ella Fitzgerald- What Are You Doing New Year's Eve? (our anniversary is New Year's Eve)
Alpha- Somewhere Not Here (kind of a crapshoot and not old and actually a little sad but goddamn do I love this song)

I was at home sick yesterday and Luther Ingram, The Chambers Brothers, Inez Foxx, Maxine Brown, War, Albino Gorilla and Kool G Rap made me feel a lot better.

Some of these apply to V-Day.

Back East - "Love Song"
Prince - "Crazy You"
Jorge Ben - "Negro E Lindo"
Milton Nascimento & Lo Borges - "Clube De Esquina"

Marvin Gaye - "You Sure Love To Ball"
Bobby Womack - "Woman's Got To Have It"
The Charmels - "As Long As I've Got You"
Johnny Baker - "Fog City (And You Babe)"

There's kind of a theme, which is infatuation and lust, then problems, disappointments and infidelity, then finally working things out. Which seems to be a constant theme in my love life...
