"Tortured" Love Songs (blues, sinatra, artist, best)

[Raggy dee Ann]

You can just feel the pain listening to these songs.

Some I've heard lately are:


Scars - Papa Roach

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
And our scars remind us that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel


So far far away frim my heart - Bodeans

So I pour another drink and take a hit
And I wonder where the smoke goes
And I'm feeling more and more like less and less
And it comes from so far down deep inside.........

But it's so hard to write a simple song
And try to turn this feeling into melody
So I put it down get on my knees
Close my eyes real tight now I'm praying
To anyone that maybe can hear me
Tell me everything will be ok
And I don't think I can make another day

Whiskey Lullaby - Brad Paisley & Alison Krause

She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory

Love Hurts-Hearts newer version (best version IMO)

[sandgirl]

I count the falling tears
They fall before my eyes
Seems like a thousand years
Since we broke the ties
I call you on the phone
But I never get a rise
Cinderella - Nobody's Fool

[Ohiogirl81]

Ring of Fire
Burning Down the House
Smoke on the Water
Light My Fire

[KentuckyBlueMoon]

Love of my Life...Queen. That song is amazing.

I'm a big fan of Hank Williams Jr. and the man can moan the blues! One of his best is
"The Pressure Is On"

[John Moynihan]

Parisian Artist’s Roam


A place where art and love
Leave you lingering for more.
Where once you’ve been
There’ll always be craving for;

Paris invites me so,
Paris excites me so,
Paris on my way to you,
Anything you ask or say I’ll do.

Street magician, penniless musician,
Portrait artist, what more?
Madam, Mademoiselle,
Amor, Amor…

Paris calls to me,
Paris falls to me,
Paris on my way to you,
Love, romance, April showers will do.

Boulevards, quaint cafes,
Pink chestnut flowers in bloom,
Left Bank walks along river Seine,
Lovers enchant gardens at noon.

Paris on my way to you,
Anything you ask or say I’ll do,
Paris on my way to you,
April in Paris, Paris I Love You…



John Moynihan

[Mr. Humble]

I'm a fool to want you
such a fool to want you
to want a love that can't be true
a love that's there for others too...
