Hi Guys..

I'm fairly new to guitar (last 6 months) and am looking for some songs that are love-oriented without being over the top.

Songs you could sing to a close friend, someone you miss, someone you care a lot about, like an ex-girlfriend stuff like that.. Something sweet thats not too "in love", but still very caring and romantic...

Stuff like Howie Day's "Collide", and "Best I Ever Had" and the types of things I'm looking for..

If anyone could help me out with this or just have some simple song suggestions that would be great!!!!

James Taylor's "You've Got A Friend." "Gentle On My Mind" written by John Hartford (performed by John, Kris Kristopherson, Glen Campbell and others). "In My Life" by the Beatles. And welcome to GTU.

Thanks. It is a great tune for multi-situational caring (does that phrase make sense? Sounds like PC Nu-Speak kind of! Just made it up myself! ) "Sweet Baby James" (or "Secret O' Life," depending on my mood!) is probably my favorite JT tune.

Can't better any of the replies, but try out Ben Harper - When it's good...

I don't think you can go wrong with that one.
