Okay. Settle an argument for me because SOMEONE has messed up taste.

Would you consider this to be a love song?

Radiohead - Creep

Just don't ask me why.

ETA: what is your favourite love song?

It is, it's just a non-traditional viewpoint on love compared to other love songs.

That's not what love songs should sound like.

What are you considering a love song?

It's a song about love, but it isn't exactly something you'd want to confess with.

It's not a love song in the slightest.

A surface, superficial reading of the lyrics may indicate as much, but the song depicts a man so aware of his own pathetic nature and envy of a more "special" and "perfect" person they're attracted to that they ultimately realize what they are, but only through their personal lens. It is a song about failure, not about love.

i think it's the most self-deprecating love song in the world. i mean the guy is "singing" about being in love, so it technically counts, i guess

That song is so sad sounding!

My favorit is Your Still the one! By Shanyah Twane. Its so romantic when too people can love each other even after years and years.

I don't do love songs in general, but that one sounds like it's going to end with someone wearing the object of their affection's skin.
