20 the top love
songs
I
t’s February, the month of all
things love, idealized in flow-ers,
chocolate, diamonds and
… music. The writing of love
songs dates back thousands
of years. So what are the most roman-tic
songs? One way to find out is to
locate a list of what songs are the most
requested by newlyweds at their wed-ding.
And where do you find such a list,
pray tell? From two of the top wedding
DJs in the area — Jason Tatum of Active
DJ Entertainment and Brian McArtan of
DJ Professionals and Video, who kindly
helped us tap their top 20 love songs.
