With Valentine's Day just around the corner, what in your opinion is the most romantic song, be it instrumental or vocal?
Many of you may have a song which has been performed by your favourite Classicalx artist, if so, what is it and why.

I don't think I could pick just one - that would be too hard.

One of my favourite songs is Mon Coeur S'Ouvre A Ta Voix from the Opera Samson and Delilah, I find it an incredibly moving piece.

I do like Il Divo's Regrese a Mi, Katherine Jenkins' version of I Will Always Love You and Amici Forever's Ocean Heart. I think my favourite of the Classicalx artists though,has to be Nick Garrett's version of I just Have to Breathe. Beautiful lyrics and a wonderful melody sung by an amazing voice, really gives you goosebumps!

I know I am a bit late for Valentines but romance is suppose to be part of our lives so with that: and like Grantie - impossible to pick only one! So here is a list of some of my favorites...
Pachelbel -- Cannon in D
Elgar --- Nimrod (love that at a candle lit dinner)
Strauss - the Emporor Waltz is probably my favorite Strauss...
and then there is Ravel, Mozart and Bach..
Now to those who are still alive and Breathing...
NICK GARRETT - and to kind of take a Nick quib, mu sic lly, all his pieces are romantic... lyri cially...I Just Have to Breathe and Salva Me
Andrea Bocelli - Ama Credi E Vai, Sogno, Cuando Me Enamoro, Autumn Leaves...well there are so many more
Ruseslls Alchemist or Beyond Imagination from the Opera Babes or
Jim Brickmans - To hear you Say you Love me or Awakening
Josh Groban - Weeping
or some of the older ones:
Righteous Brothers - Soul & Inspiration or You've lost that Loving feelin'
The Eagles - Best of my Love
Laughing

I guess I don;t really have a favorite, I listen to all of these often and many many other ones too!!
