Instead of posting tomorrow, 
I'm posting today, so I can say:

For the 12 days leading up to Valentine's Day
I thought it'd be fun to play a different love song each day. 
So I did ... on Facebook ... 

First up is one of my all-time favorite songs. 
(And not just because the video stars Jennifer Anniston.) 
"I Want to Be in Love" by the amazing Melissa Etheridge

Love song numero dos: 
Sugar, Sugar” by The Archies
I’m sure you’ll agree that The Archies 
are arguably the best cartoon band of all time. 
(No offense to Josey and the Pussycats.) 
(Or those mischievous Chipmunks.)

Love song number 3: 
Take on Me” by A-Ha
Cool song; fun riff; awesome video.

Song number 4: 
I Think I Love You” by the Partridge Family
Arguably one of the best bogus made-for-TV bands of all time. 
Second only to the Monkees
And maybe the Bugaloos.
I used to sing this song in front of the class in third grade. 
David Cassidy’s attractive daughter Katie stars in “Arrow” on the CW

Number 5: 
Keep On Loving You” by REO Speedwagon
A bit sinister for a love song, lyrically anyway, 
i.e., the snake in the grass line, 
but oh, what an awesome piano riff! 
And overall, the message is lovey-dovey, 
so it still qualifies as a love song. 
I remember being amazed when I first heard it.

Song 6: 
Find a Way” by Amy Grant
A different kind of love. 
A song that’s encouraging and powerful, just like love.

Love song 7: 
Whole Wide World” by Wreckless Eric
A different kind of love song. 
Still, it’s a awesome tribute to the love we want. 
That certain Someone Special. 
And the lengths we’ll go to find her! 
Will Ferrell sang this song in “Stranger Than Fiction”. 
(Please Note: Starts soft, then get loud!)

Love song number 8: 
Oh My Love” by John Lennon
The late, the great, John Lennon wanted to write a love song; 
and so he did! Awesome, moving song! 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5Kh-IMKDqM

Number 9: 
The Power of Love” by Huey Lewis and the News
Great clips from “Back to the Future” too. 
Cool song. Cool movie Enjoy!

Song number 10: 
The Rose” by Bette Midler
Awesome lyrics, with lots of juxtapositions and contrasts, 
i.e., taken/gives, dying/lives, etc. 
Cool melody too. 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAfPXKqPFbA

Love song 11: 
Sometimes When We Touch” by Dan Hill
Awesome, powerful love song! Fantastic lyrics. 
This was my choice for tomorrow, 
but I switched to something else.

Here’s love song number 12: 
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Heal the World” by Michael Jackson
“Be God’s glow!” 
My favorite song. 
(Or at least, my favorite song that’s not one of mine.) 
Whether you have someone special in your life tonight or not, 
you still have Someone Special in your life. 
Could be God. Could be you. 
Could be someone you haven’t met yet. 
Have a safe and Happy Valentine’s Day
And together, let’s Heal the World

Blessings & Joy,
