So we narrowed it down for you, to our top 60. There have been so many great songs that have come out that it’s hard to pick a favorite. If you’re pining after a new person, celebrating that first blush of love, or devastated that your feelings are unrequited, there’s probably a country love song that’s put what you’re going through into words. And while there are love songs of every stripe, in every genre of music, you have to hand it to the country artists out there: Country love songs have been a bread-and-butter staple of the genre going back to the '40s, if not earlier. And, in the sad event that a new romance falls apart, you need music to help you wallow in it.
If there's one topic that songwriters return to again and again, it's love - understandably, because when you fall in love, it makes your heart sing.
