    In honor of Valentines Day I felt it was only right to re-up this.

    And yes it still is.

    My opinion only, but it’s one of the best songs out there, period.

    I didn't go through all the posts but I assume someone made a dreamgirl or you & me joke

    If Stay or leave counts as a love song then thats #1 otherwise its loving wings or....crash, I wish I liked lover lay down but for some reason I really really hate it

    Crush is an amazing song and may actually be their best love song, but...

    I look at love being more than the euphoria, but the ups and downs. Similarly, I put the Some Devil under the umbrella of band albums, in that it's his music and they do play those tunes live.

    With that in mind, my favorite DMB/Dave love songs are:

    I Let You Down...the whistle solo and then the sax solo/fadeout, LeRoi cutting right to the emotional core of the song in his melodies

    and

    Stay Or Leave...heartbreaking end of love or ending love song: reflecting, assessing, trying to minimize but only really remember the good...steeped in regret, the type that only comes from love.

    Re: Is Crush DMB's best love song?

    "chasing me all around..." is one of the best parts of any DMB song, I think maybe possibly. BUT:

    A million reasons life to deny
    Let's toss them away
    See you and me we
    Lay down look see
    She and he
    By my lover's side
    Together share this smile
    Lover lay down

    is not the greatest lyrical craftsmanship ever. Crush doesn't have any clunky wording like that, and it's a song of unashamed adoration of and devotion to a woman. It's clearly the superior love song.

    Cornbread is a solid choice. But I have to go with Seven. Garden Hose lyrics for additional points.

    The song I’d miss the most if the band chose to go on without a violin.

    In a relationship sense, I feel like Crush occurs first and then Lover Lay Down, which is why I'd put LLD at the best love song.

    I’m going to put it out there that The Stone is DMB’s best love song, for me. It tugs at my soul every time it pops up at a show I attend, during a live release I’m listening to, and whenever it pops up in a playlist. Second would be Crush.

    I'm partial to LLD. Crush is probably the best though.

    Sorry. I read it as, “Is crush DMB’s best ‘LIVE’ song (assuming 4.0).

    Snow Outside. The emotions spun out of the outro are unmatched by other songs.
