(ETX Daily Up) – A few days before Valentine’s Day, many lovers are busy with the final preparations. Music is part of it. To help the more undecided, Spotify has taken a look at the most popular love songs with its users around the world.
What would a romantic evening be without John Legend, the American crooner to whom we owe “Used to Love U”, “Like I’m Gonna Lose You” or even “Love Me Now”. If his repertoire is full of love songs, “All of Me” stands out for its great popularity. It appears in over 34 million Spotify playlists. It’s a safe bet that many of them have a Valentine’s Day theme.
“Thinking Out Loud” d’Ed Sheeran and Bruno Mars’ “Just The Way You Are” are also in Spotify’s top 10 songs on Valentine’s Day playlists. But the classics are not left out! Lovers around the world also turn to “My Girl” by The Temptations, “Can’t Help Falling in Love” by Elvis Presley or even “At Last” by Etta James to declare their love for the elect of their heart.
A Valentine’s Day… under the chirping of birds
However, Valentine’s Day is not a holiday (mercantile) celebrated by everyone. Those who have recently been heartbroken tend to boycott it. But there is no question of spending a dull evening, without music! Some songs by Taylor Swift, Adele and Justin Timberlake can help you get over your breakup. To move forward, Spotify users turn to Taylor Swift’s “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together”, Adele’s “Someone Like You” and Ariana Grande’s “thank u, next”. The most revengeful will also appreciate “Since U Been Gone” by Kelly Clarkson and “Best Thing I Never Had” by Beyoncé.
If it is often said that the French are particularly inclined to romance, they make particular musical choices for the evening of Valentine’s Day. Not to say confusing enough… Songs made up of ambient noise like “Concert Of Italian Crickets, Nature Sounds” and “Blackbird” peak on Valentine’s Day in France, according to Spotify. Just like “Belek À Nous, Pt 2” by AYSKO, BFG and La Peee, “Off” by Invaders and “Pourquoi” by GREÜLLS. Like what, on Valentine’s Day, everything is allowed in terms of music.
