Songs for you, songs for me

Music is important to my girlfriend and I. I decided to make a top list of songs my girl and I sent to each other. And, here it is! It’s really personal sometimes. Some songs need an explanation, so I made that too. Enjoy listening! Feel free to ask if you have questions or additions.

Snälla bli min - Veronica Maggio
Swedish blonde beauty singing an amazingly sweet song. Stays in your head for days! English translation: Please be mine, listen the song here on YouTube.

Jungle Drum - Emiliana Torrini
I guess this (after a while little ennoying in my opinion) song doesn’t need any explanation. Listen here on YouTube

The Longer The Waiting, The Sweeter The Kiss - Anna Ternheim
Original sung by Josh Turner, Swedish singer/songwriter Anna Ternheim covers it really well! Little help though from Dave Ferguson. This is one of THE songs about a LDR! Listen here in YouTube.

Mary - Bertolf
On some moments, when my girlfriend and I listen to this song, our eyes get wet. The lyrics of it says it all. It’s the (true) story of (Dutch) singer/songwriter Bertolf who have never met his girlfriend’s mother because she died before Bertolf got together with his girl. Me and my girl have the same story. And it’s so true. I really feel it the way he sings and wrote those words. Please read the lyrics here. Listen the song here on YouTube.

Your Song - Ellie Goulding
Ellie Goulding covers Your Song from Elton John. Just beautiful. Listen here on YouTube.

You and Me (In My Pocket) - Milow
Funny song, creative lyrics. Just watch the official video, it’s really special. The whole clip was shot in one take! Watch it here on YouTube. Belgian creativity!
