The perfect soundtrack for your Valentine's Day.
As we're getting closer and closer to Valentine's Day, it's got me thinking about all the single people, recently coupled, and those who are in a long-term relationship.
When you're in a relationship, what gets you in the mood to be all lovey dovey? Romcoms? Romantic gestures? Music?
Well I won't get into all of the above. However as someone who loves music like I do, I've created a playlist of songs that I like when I'm in that romantic state of mind, and hopefully you like them too.
Before we get into the list, I just would like to say a couple of things. Firstly, I tried to keep it diverse but it's pretty Justin Bieber and Chris Brown heavy.
Needless to say, these are two of the music industry's best selling artists, and there's a reason why. When it comes to their vocal ability, and what they have to say, they're just that dang good.
Secondly, it's important to remember that not everyone is in a relationship on Valentine's Day.
Therefore they don't necessarily want to be in full-blown lovey dovey mode. We've provided some songs for you too, newly single people! From broken-hearted lyrics to fresh, new ways of getting her back, we've got the whole gamut covered.
Interestingly enough, I recently took a poll asking followers what makes for better music, giving them options from the infatuation phase to breakups and heartbreak. Surprisingly, the majority of people chose heartbreak.
Because of that, the last set of songs on this playlist are dedicated to those singles who aren't in a relationship on Valentine's Day, but were in one at some time in the past.
If you're open to good music no matter what lovestage you're in, here are the top songs on Spotify to listen to on Valentine's Day (or any day) when you're ready for a romantic groove.
