Love is not love without rock music, and rock music is not rock music without love. From the '60s to the '80s and beyond, sweet romance has been expressed beautifully through rock music. Here, we count down 10 of the all-time greatest rock songs about love, from 1960s classics to modern spin-offs.
Fleetwood Mac, “You Make Lovin’ Fun” It’s the soap opera of the rock world: infidelity, heartbreak, and wheelbarrows full of booze and blow all produced ’s top-shelf classic, Rumors. And it’s on this funk-rock-lite groover that Christine McVie, recently divorced from bassist John McVie, coos about a new affair with the group's lighting director, Curry Grant. It’d be tough to sing (or sing harmonies to, in John’s case) lyrics like, “You, you make loving fun / I don't have to tell you but you're the only one.” Lesson learned: Love is complicated.
