• Crazy In Love, Beyoncé

The 2003 classic.

 

Favorite Lyrics:

Such a funny thing for me to try to explain // How I’m feeling and my pride is the one to blame // ‘Cause I know I don’t understand // Just how your love can do what no one else can

Well, I absolutely LOVE Beyoncé. A peppy, fun, song to play with your special someone. And Beyoncé! Who doesn’t want to listen to Queen B on V-Day?

• Scars To Your Beautiful, Alessia Cara

The hit on the radio station.

Favorite Lyrics:

But there’s a hope that’s waiting for you in the dark // You should know you’re beautiful just the way you are // And you don’t have to change a thing, the world could change its heart // No scars to your beautiful, we’re stars and we’re beautiful

This is such a beautiful song. It really helps people everywhere restore their self-confidence. A beautiful thing for Valentine’s Day. ❤

• All Of Me, John Legend

A smooth feel good jam.

A beautiful song, silky velvet rosy sweet. AUGH JUST WRAP ME UP IN A BLANKET OF IT.

 

Favorite Lyrics:

My head’s under water // But I’m breathing fine // You’re crazy and I’m out of my mind

• Sweetest Devotion, Adele

A song from the Grammy-winning album.

OK, I’m sorry, but I am hijacking this post to say- did you see the Grammy’s last night? And Adele’s speech at the end- Beyoncé was moved to tears. Wow, it was so so beautiful.

 

Favorite Lyrics:

Hitting me like an explosion // All of my life, I’ve been frozen // The sweetest devotion I’ve known

• A Thousand Years, Christina Perri

Don’t judge a song by the album cover… even though i do. all the time.

It’s so cheesy and it’s from twilight but honestly I still love it. I guess I’m just cheese. Cheese is good, especially the shredded kind… and I’m rambling.

Favorite Lyrics:

I have died everyday, waiting for you // Darling, don’t be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years // I’ll love you for a thousand more

IT’S SO CORNY POPCORN WOULD BE JEALOUS BUT–
