What do todays teenagers use for music to fall in love?

Asked by john65pennington (29273points) May 4th, 2011

You and your best gf or bf want to be alone for awhile. What music is played today for this purpose? Surely its not acid rock, rap or even rock/country music. Todays lovers have no love songs to connect with. Question: is it okay if I suggest an oldie that you should find and listen to? It couldn’t hurt. I just hate to see people in love today without the proper music, like I had in 50s-60s.

Ed Townsend singing For Your Love on Youtube. Now thats music that will never fade away and maybe it will help someone to bring it all together.

As in “for your love I would do anything” or is that strictly Stevie? Don’t generalize all teens! I was a teen not too long ago (recently enough that pop music was already bad) and I just ignored it and played good ol’ oldies. My first boyfriend and I connected because we both played guitar and we’d sing old folk songs together.

Slices, this is exactly what I wanted to hear from someone or couple and their choice of music. Thanks for the answer. jp

Depends on both and what connects them.

Can be rock / hip hop / r & b / pop etc

Jason Mraz is modern and he does some really good love songs, I think. Michael Buble too—but I’m not sure if Buble does his own music or just covers the oldies. All I know is my 19 year old son belts Mraz and Buble to his girlfriend.
