Love Songs by Zodiac Sign

Let Astrology be your DJ for romance

by Kim Rogers-Gallagher

Love, especially the romantic kind, is the most wonderful and exciting part of being human -- as well as the most difficult. It certainly does "take two" -- the trick is to get and keep those two on the same page. That's why so many different types of love songs have been written, about everything from new love to forever love to unrequited love. The list is as endless as the feelings love inspires. Here's a peek at what each sign likes to hear, no matter what they're feeling.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
This fiery sign doesn't go for your basic Air Supply type stuff -- and don't ever, ever play Barry for them (Manilow, that is ... Barry White will do fine, especially with champagne and chocolates). In particular, they'll like love songs that have a rock and roll beat to them. Something that reflects their Fire element -- like "Fire" by the Pointer Sisters, a classic that will rev them up in all the right departments, or "Fire on High" by ELO. Oh, and if they're angry? Expect to hear "Love Stinks" (J Geils Band) or "I Will Survive" (Gloria Gaynor).

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Taurus natives play for keeps in all departments, and when it comes to romantic love, the person you love belongs to you (in your mind, at least!). You, Taurus, are the personal property of Venus, the Goddess of Love, so the perks of being your companion are excellent. Still, there are two romantic songs that immediately spring to mind when it comes to the type of love Taurus feels: "Always and Forever" (Luther Vandross) and "Let's Stay Together" (Al Green).

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Okay, so everything you've ever read about your sign says that you're fickle. Well, that's not exactly true. You can be as faithful and reliable as a Taurus, provided you're amused. That's not as tough as it sounds. You're tough, but you're easy, too, as long as you have a mental equal who understands your need to banter and play. So let's start with "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" (Animals) for obvious reasons, and to dispel all those rumors about that fickleness, how about "Unforgettable" (Nat King Cole), a tribute to the one ultra-special person they truly must be to have landed you!

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Your sign is famous for many things, but what all your traits have in common is an incomparable talent for expressing love and affection. Even romantically, you do it through nurturing, protecting and letting the lucky object of your attention know, in many ways, that you cherish them more than anyone or anything else on the planet. There are two songs that really work for you: "Love Me Tender" by none other than Elvis "The King" Presley, and "Lady," the ultimate tribute to a loved one, by Lionel Ritchie.

Leo (July 23 - August 22)
Every sign has its own way of loving, and their own way of treating their loved one. Leo, however, thinks of love the same way this regal, royal sign thinks of everything else: as a magnificent, noble, elegant gift -- the best and truest thing any two people can exchange. For that reason, there are two songs that suit your particular style of loving just perfectly: "The Glory of Love" by Bette Midler, and "Shining Star" by Earth, Wind and Fire, which describes their beloved as the Sun, the center of life itself -- and Astrology’s very own "shining star."

Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
You approach love the same way you approach everything else, Virgo, and it's all reflected beautifully by "What's Simple is True" (Jewel). In many ways, it's an ode to the way you live your life: by the basics. You work very hard to keep your life drama-free. No scenes, no crises and as few arguments as possible. You're also famous for being quite picky, and in the department of romance, that's something other people really should learn. Once you do find your soul mate, there's only one song you'd dedicate to them: "Waiting for a Girl [or Guy] Like You" by Foreigner.
