re: playlists about 'love'

compiling a playlist of songs containing the word 'love' is expansive and daunting because, well, all rock music tends to be a running meditation on love--its highs, its lows, its bittersweet remains. a more contained project would be creating conversations out of song titles about 'love', with results often seeming like a scene out of a melancholy new wave film. imagine:

person A: hello, i love you (1). do you love me (2)?
person B: i love you (3).
person A: it's true that we love one another (4).
person B: love will tear us apart (5).

artists featured:
1. the doors 2. kiss cover, nirvana 3. the dandy warhols 4. the white stripes 5. joy division

  2. I've always stuck with the cover of "Love Will Tear Us Apart" by Susannah and the Magical Orchestra.

    Miss and love you.
