Why is it so wonderful to listen to Stephen Merritt sing about love? Maybe it's because Valentine's Day is almost upon us, but I do love listening to his deep, sighing voice singing about the topic. Those familiar with The Magnetic Fields will remember his amazing 1999 album 69 Songs About Love. "The Book of Love" is a pretty song about being in love. Listen here. Also, check out the band's newest release, Realism (on Nonesuch Records), which dropped last month.
What are some of your favorite songs about love?
