One month from now, Valentines Day will be here. The one day that romance tends to fill the atmosphere and lovers express joy for one another. In most cases, couples go out to a nice dinner and a movie. Then, return home to spend the rest of the evening cuddling and listening to nice slow jams. This is why your music selection is important on this day. Those soulful melodies and smooth sounds will help you create a romantic experience. Therefore, it is imperative to have the right albums set and ready to go on our iPod or CD player.
To help you select the most romantic albums, the Music Business Association (Music Biz) compiled a list of Top 10 Most Romantic Albums. The list was based off of a survey conducted with employees of the Music Biz’s commercial clients. Some of the albums listed may not be of your taste (or even a little dated). So, check and see which ones you agree with or not.
21 – by Adele
Avalon – by Roxy Music
Come Away with Me – by Norah Jones
I’m Still in Love with You – by Al Green
Kind of Blue – by Miles Davis
Let’s Get It On – by Marvin Gaye
Love Deluxe – by Sade
Love Songs – by Carpenters
Lovers Rock – by Sade
To Be Loved – by Michael Bublé
The Sade albums, Marvin Gaye, Al Green, and Adele definitely sounds about right. You and your boo are guaranteed to have a great night with anyone of those playing.
