Quotes from Love Songs
Perhaps an off-the-wall bit of motivation, but love songs often have the power to move you.
I’ll do this a little differently. I’ll list the quote. You (in the comments) identify the song and artist.
The only prize is bragging rights.

Is the song of love quotes motivating you? =)
There’s a fine line between motivation and inspiration. And songs, and love songs too, can do both.
# 8!!! “But you’ll never find peace of mind till you listen to your heart.”
Michael Buble, Kissing A Fool!!!
Correct, but can you name the original artist who wrote and performed the song?
Ahh, I did a little google research…discovered that the original is George Michael?
Wham! Well, it was post-Wham! But, whammy, you’re right!
Oh! Oh! I know #5:
The Bangles: “Eternal Flame”
Is this burning an eternal FLAAAAAAAAAAAAME!!!!
Yes!
#1 is Cheap Trick!!! “The Flame” - I recognized it right away, love that song. I actually burned a cd a few days ago with all my favorite family love songs and copied it for my sisters, kind of like the old mix tape thing, lol.
For some reason I’m seeing John Cusack holding up a stereo right now in my minds’ eye….remember that?
Bingo! The answer and linkback is yours!
From Say Anything? But, wasn’t that song “In Your Eyes” by Peter Gabriel?
#2 - Icehouse - Electric Blue
#3 - Ultra - Shattered Dreams lyrics
#7 - Foreigner - I Don’t Want To Live Without You
#10 - Paul Carrack - Don’t Shed A Tear lyric
I’ll leave the rest for someone else. (I hope these are correct!)
Before I give you #3, can you name the original artist?
Johnny Hates Jazz?
Bingo!
I could barely name this artist!
See, you learn (or remember) something new each day.
I like to learn but love songs? I’m trying to write about my blow-out soccer game tonight (not our finest game ever) and all I can do is feel lovey-thoughts towards a team that I have no choice but to hate!
“Love is a Battlefield.”
There, does that help?
