Favorite INFP love songs

topic posted Mon, October 1, 2007 - 12:42 AM by  Corin
So what exactly is an INFP love song and how does it differ from a non-infp love song? I'm not sure if I could define it.

Love song is kind of a broad category because, there's love lost, love found, unrequited love, love returned, new love, old love, etc.

For me, I like INFP love songs that don't quite sound like love songs.


Kate Bush - This Woman's Work - www.youtube.com/watch
Sinead O'Connor - Troy - www.youtube.com/watch
Sisters of Mercy - Some Kind of Stranger ( my favorite love song of all time for about 16 years now)
Damien Rice - Volcano - www.youtube.com/watch
Swans - Blackmail
Sarah Brightman - Deliver Me - www.youtube.com/watch
Hooverphonic - Mad About You - www.youtube.com/watch
Sting - Mad About You - www.youtube.com/watch
PJ Harvey - Oh My Lover - www.youtube.com/watch
Depeche Mode - Judas - www.youtube.com/watch
Skinny Puppy - Love<br>
Peter Murphy - Cuts You Up - www.youtube.com/watch
James Blunt - Goodbye My Lover - www.youtube.com/watch
Death Cab For Cutie - I Will Follow You Into the Dark - www.youtube.com/watch
Sarah McLachlan - Angel - www.youtube.com/watch
Prince - Thieves in the Temple

and probably the best unrequited love song of all time

Matchbox Twenty - You Won't Be Mine - www.youtube.com/watch

          Some of those I wouldn't describe, or hadn't thought of, as love songs. "Love songs that don't quite sound like love songs" - well said. I like ambiguity. Also, I'm drawn to a darkness or sadness. I wouldn't know where to begin my own list. I probably would need a definition of "love song" first, and then I would kind of be picking favorite children. I've spent some time wondering whether INFPs are attracted to particular sub-genres of popular music.

                  I never listed my favorites. What are my favorites? A music lover could never list them all. Your Billy Joel reference reminded me of one, another song of his that expresses different INFP-like sentiments, a relationship song but not really a love song: "And So It Goes."
