Monday's Music Moves Me: Love/Valentine's Day Songs #MondaysMusicMovesMe #Music #ValentinesDay



Hey everyone,
I am a little late for the music today but I suppose better late than never. The Monday's Music gals are spinning the tunes this week with love songs. That seems appropriate since Valentine's Day is on Wednesday. Let's get to it, shall we? Don't forget to link up!

The first song that comes to mind is from Neil Diamond. Oh, could he play the love songs!
Did you know he retired this year? sigh...


Next up is by another singer who is also retiring this year (sheesh), Elton John. He also knows how to write those beautiful love songs. For the record, did you know this song was in the remake of "Moulin Rouge?" 



So many selections I could play. Hmm...ok, this last one will be one by Lionel Richie and Diana Ross. I have always loved this song. Did you know it was originally released by Luther Vandross?

Three good ones here! I hadn't even thought of "Heartlight."

Excellent choices! I didn't know that Luther Vandross had originally done 'Endless Love'. Great find!

So many musicians have passed away in the past couple of years, and more and more are announcing the end of their touring. Neil Diamond, Elton John - all good selections. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

OH MY GOSH, What a wonderful surprise! You brat, you're going to have me tearing up here. You have not lost your touch my friend. Wow, why didn't I think of that? You had me saying that to each one of these songs. Not one person came up with these. Endless Love is such a classic! You're the best my friend. BIG HUGS & thank you so much! Hope to see you again next week.

Nice choices. So sad that Neil Diamond recently retired due to health issues.

Something screwy is going on here. This is my 3rd attempt to leave a comment. I did not know Neil Diamond retired and I didn't know that Elton John is going to retire. Between the two artists they've written and recorded many excellent songs over the years. This sort of talent will not be seen again in our life time. "Endless Love" is an excellent 'love song'. Thanks for hitting the dance floor with the 4M gang. Have a good week, my friend!

Beautiful! Especially, Elton John.

Hi Michelle,
Great love songs you chose for the Valentine theme! I haven't heard "Endless Love" in so long! What a great song and a terrific duet with Diana Ross and Lionel Richie.
I love Elton John and have seen him twice. Sad to hear that he's retiring and won't be touring anymore. But he sure has earned his retirement! What a super-star! Such a talent.
I hadn't heard about Neil Diamond retiring. He's another great.

Hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day. I'm late making the rounds. :( Enjoy your weekend,
