Greatest Love songs by Rock bands

No Ghey...but Ill start with 2 of many I like.




Frank Sinatra called this one of the greatest love songs ever written.
I posted a raw version as it was written by Harrison. Compare that to the studio version. At 1:55 is a bridge that was yanked out on final album.

One of the great choruses. As always, Hensley's organ work is magnificent.



As you look around you do you like what you see?
Though it sometimes makes you lonely, do you like being free?
And are you sure you'll be OK without my company?
I just want you to be happy even if it's not with me.
Sweet, sweet freedom, sweet, sweet, sweet.
Will the line between all this and my love ever meet?
Sweet, sweet freedom, sweet, sweet, sweet.
What I'm really trying to say is that I will be around
should you find that after all you can't get by with what you've found.

Oh, it wasn't just my heart you took and tossed into the sea,
though it's hard to find the words I need I guess it was me.
Sweet, sweet freedom, sweet, sweet, sweet.
Will the line between all this and my love ever meet?
Sweet, sweet freedom, sweet, sweet, sweet.
Will the line between all this and my love ever gonna meet?
Sweet, sweet freedom, sweet, sweet, sweet.
Sweet, sweet freedom, sweet, sweet, sweet.
Sweet, sweet freedom, sweet, sweet, sweet. (fade out)




I scream at you for sharing
I curse you just for caring
I hate the clothes you're wearing, they're so pretty
I tell you not to see me
I tell you not to feel me
I make your life a drag, it's such a pity

I watch your warm glow palin'
I watch your sparkle fadin'
As you realize you're failin' cos' you're so good
Oh, I don't mean to upset you
But there's so much crime to get through
If I could make it easier then I would

I wish I was your mother, I wish I'd been your father
And then I would have seen you, would have been you as a child
Played houses with your sisters and wrestled with all your brothers
And then who knows, I might have felt a family for a while

It's no use me pretending
You give and I do the spending
Is there a happy ending, I don't think so
Cos' even if we make it
I'll be too far out to take it
You'll have to try and shake it from my head

I wish I was your mother, I wish I'd been your father
And then I would have seen you, would have been you as a child
Played houses with your sisters and wrestled with all your brothers
And then who knows, I might have felt a family for a while

"I dont wanna miss a thing"??? Really Southpark?

No offense, just personally one of Ruby's most hated songs of all time.

Imagine being Mike Fisher after Ann Wilson wrote this one about him? Phenomenal tune.

This guy never ceases to amaze me, no matter the era. What a brilliant, mother f**king musician/songwriter.



Hello cowgirl in the sand
Is this place
at your command
Can I stay here
for a while
Can I see your
sweet sweet smile
Old enough now
to change your name
When so many love you
is it the same?
It's the woman in you
that makes you want
to play this game.

Hello ruby in the dust
Has your band
begun to rust
After all
the sin we've had
I was hopin' that
we'd turn bad
Old enough now
to change your name
When so many love you
is it the same
It's the woman in you
that makes you want
to play this game.

Hello woman of my dreams
This is not
the way it seems
Purple words
on a grey background
To be a woman
and to be turned down
Old enough now
to change your name
When so many love you
is it the same
It's the woman in you
that makes you want
to play this game.





EDIT: Had to add this gem.
