The first quarter of 2020 was unlike anything we've ever experienced, but music was a silver lining during this period of emotional distress. As we danced our sorrows away with TikTok challenges ("Savage" and "Tootsie Slide," I'm looking at you), some of our favorite artists released sweet love songs that had us deep in our feelings. From self-love anthems to island-inspired bops, here are the best love songs of 2020—so far.
Dua Lipa captures the first rush of butterflies you feel when you start falling, or rather, levitating for someone. You're so high you don't want to come down.
Giveon's debut EP Take Time is a masterpiece but "World We Created" is the song I can't stop singing. It takes us into Giveon's dream of waking up next to the one he loves, who he promises to never "switch up like the seasons."
Self-isolation can make you feel really lonely. "Should I text my ex?" you've asked yourself fifty-'leven times. You really shouldn't—but Kehlani understands if you do. "Toxic" finds her reflecting on a past relationship she knows is no good for her romantically—but sexually? It just works.
DVSN is tapping into unchartered waters with their new album A Muse In Her Feelings. The elusive duo usually stays away from features, but on this album, "Dangerous City" connects DVSN singer Daniel Daley's dulcet falsetto, Ty Dolla $ign's husky voice, and Buju Banton's raspy island twang over Nineteen85's breezy melody.
"Forever" is a stark reminder that we're living in uncertain times, and no one can predict what tomorrow holds. It's not that Charli XCX foresees a breakup, but she realizes how much she's in love in her current relationship. Even if their "forever" gets cut short, she'll always love him.
What happens when the butterflies from the honeymoon phase end? Sabrina Carpenter doesn't want to find out. "Honeymoon Fades" is a letter to her lover, with Carpenter expressing that even though the relationship was unexpected, she hopes it never loses its spark.
"Blinding Lights" by the Weeknd (pictured) was the best-performing single of 2020, spending a total of four nonconsecutive weeks at the top position of the Billboard Hot 100, as well as breaking Billboard records for both the most time ever spent in the Top 5, and the most spent in the Top 10.
What song will make a man cry? “I Don't Want to Miss a Thing” by Aerosmith. This song expresses the intense love and commitment a man feels towards his partner and the fear of missing even a single moment with them.
Maybe it's the song on the radio during your first date or the encore to an unforgettable concert you attended. Even if one song doesn't emerge as the winner, a list will help you formulate an idea for what genre and lyrics you both gravitate toward.
Romantic music was often ostensibly inspired by (or else sought to evoke) non-musical stimuli, such as nature, literature, poetry, super-natural elements, or the fine arts. It included features such as increased chromaticism and moved away from traditional forms.
