“Your Song” – Elton John (1970)

Despite working together many times during their decades-long friendship, Dolly and Kenny never had romantic feelings for each other, no matter how many songs they performed looking deeply into each other’s eyes.

“I Will Always Love You” – Whitney Houston (1992)

First written and recorded in 1973 by Dolly Parton, who became a sensation with her country version.

“Ode to Love” – Edith Piaf (1950)

This is undoubtedly one of the most romantic and tragic songs in the French repertoire. La Môme wrote these lyrics for her lover, Marcel Cerdan, who died in a plane crash in 1949, before she had time to make a studio recording of the song. Édith Piaf decided to keep the original text.

“Stand by Me” – Ben E. King (1961)

“Stand by Me” has over four hundred covers and ranks among the top five most performed songs on stage (with approximately 11.6 million recorded performances). Inspired by the religious hymn “Oh Lord, Stand by Me,” this song remains a timeless classic.

“Wicked Game” – Chris Isaak (1989)

“Wicked Game” is one of the most iconic love songs of all time, and although it is often considered a ballad about unrequited desire, the singer and songwriter see it more as a story of physical attraction to a toxic person.

“(Everything I Do) I Do It for You” – Bryan Adams (1991)

This Grammy-winning song, which reached #1 in 30 countries, was written specifically for the film Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, starring Kevin Costner, and was included on the Canadian artist’s sixth album, Waking Up the Neighbours.

“I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing” – Aerosmith (1998)

The lyrics to this mythical song (written by Diane Warren) were inspired by James Brolin, who confessed in an interview that he never wanted to fall asleep because he missed Barbra Streisand too much.
