Music plays an integral part in my marriage life. Together, I and my wife sing fast songs when we’re on a jovial mood. We sing “Amazing Grace”, “How Great Art Thou” and other inspirational songs to lift our spirits and give thanksgiving to the Lord. On a romantic mood, we listen and danced away the night to such classic tunes as “Changing Partner” or “Blue Danube”. That’s how influential music is to our life.
But there are songs which I deemed special, songs that in a way help us built a stronger relationship throughout the years and kept the fire in our hearts burning. This coming Valentine's Day, I’ve promise my good wife to serenade her with these three songs, which really shape our relationship to what it is right now.
These are the three very special songs:
1. “No Walls, No Ceiling, No Floors” — recorded by the American singer Orsa Lia in the late 70’s. just feel the lyrics of this song..
2. “Have I Told You Lately That I Love You” — one of Rod Stewart greatest hit.. The message is so touchy and a must for married couple to say each day.
3. “Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman“– - a meaningful song from Brian Adams which vividly gives a good definition of loving a woman.
I love all the three songs but I did not know the title of the first one till now, naririnig ko lang si mama kumakanta nyan noon hehehe
ReplyDeleteYan ang theme song namin ni misis. Ang baduy..LOL
DeleteI actually listened through all these three songs early this morning while doing my chores. Listening to them allowed me to appreciate them all over again.
ReplyDeleteoh, love all these songs donald, you two are so sweet, i never knew the title of the first song too, thanks to you, now I know what it is :)
ReplyDeleteI like the songs you mentioned Kuya. Sometimes, the melody may not catch pique your interest or liking but if you listen closely to the song's lyrics the you'll kind of start warming up to it.
ReplyDeleteI like songs that are romantic, cheerful and of praise. :)

ReplyDeleteI am always moved by inspirational songs like Amazing Grace and many other songs sung during Sunday mass.
ReplyDeleteRod Stewart's Have I told you lately is truly a romantic song for couples ;)
WE LOVE PRAISE AND WORSHIP SONGS, too! =) Every morning, I listen to gospel songs while on the computer at the same time.. Tama po kayo, it helps uplifts your spirit.. What other better way to start your day than to start it with a prayer and sing songs of praises to God?! =)
ReplyDeleteI also love the song, "Have I Told You Lately".. Hubby and I both love it.. It's one of those songs we shared with each other when we were still dating.. (Yung mga papansin at pakilig-kilig days palang.. Hehehe)

ReplyDeleteClassic songs. Just perfect for you and your wife.
ReplyDeleteYour choices are my choices too! I love all these songs so much..so inspiring and romantically great.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful songs!! We love listening to Don Moen's songs too but we don't have a particular love song.. mmm, probably we should. Your wife will love you more if you serenade her everyday!:)
ReplyDeleteGreat song choices! Sometimes when I really feel like wanting to hear only the lyrics and not the rhythm, they make me cry.
ReplyDeleteAwwww... I hope that my significant other would serenade me with such lovely songs as well. It's great that you're strengthening your love and marriage through moments such as this. :)
ReplyDeleteI will never forget about Bryan Adam's Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman. We sang this in an acoustic band competition. Well, we only got second place but it was all worth it. Great post! :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so sweet, I wonder what will my husband do on Valentines day. Hope he will surprise me.
