strung out - the exhumation of virginia madison (yes i'm obviously addicted to this band)

it's about a guy that had a dream where he kills his girlfriend... he then notices that he's made a terrible mistake, and he starts to fall apart. so he goes to her grave and digs up the dirt with his bare hands. he then lies down next to her corpse and buries himself with her. romantic in a twisted way

that's a quick basic summary, it actually goes deeper than that but i'm too lazy

Tom Waits - "Martha" - the whole song is a single phone call a man is making to his first love - 40 years after they've parted.

You would have problems finding love songs that are better than this one. Just reading the lyrics you can tell that it is a great song.

Bette Midler did an incredible female rendition of the same song - she performed it only once on SNL and never recorded it (I think she wanted to keep it private because it reminded her of something very personal) - I saw that performance which was completely heart-breaking. She was in tears from the beginning of the song to the end as if she were really on the phone with palpable embarrassment, nostalgia, angst, love, regret and sadness - I'll never forget it.

In no particular order:

Unchained Melody - Righteous Brothers (remakes are soso)
Percy Sledge - When a Man Loves a Woman (michael bolton remake is alright)
Extreme - More than Words
Goo Goo Dolls - Iris
Aerosmith - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing
Lonestar - Amazed
Eric Clapton - Wonderful Tonight
Def Leppard - Love Bites
Luther Vandross - Always and Forever

There's also a song called "Love, Me" it's not really a love song but always made me cry when I was younger, I can't for the life of me think of the artist name...anyone know?

that's just a handful, can't believe some of these haven't been mentioned yet
