I don't know if this really fits the bill but Steal my Kisses (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXieKmlkdcc) by Ben Harper always brings a smile to my face!
Cheesiest video I've seen in ages as well!

What a nice thread! :love:
I'm too bleary to sift my brain files at the moment so I will just post ones that have been prompted today. I have just posted about Bjork on another thread so this one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPbrWtjTIno) will do.
I had Divine Comedy on my walkman when I went to the shops, so I also nominate this one. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsvMca0xG0c) It's a bit slower than it should be, but I love the words and it's joyful.
Probably any early Beatles song!

Probably not the most conventional but definitely a love song! I love the words to this song. :)

And a very realistic look at things...

Again another one i love the lyrics...
Line One is the time
That you, you first stayed over at mine
And we drank our first bottle of wine
And we cried
Line Two we're away
And we both, we both had nowhere to stay
Well the bus-shelter's always OK
When you're young
Now you're older and I look at your face
Every wrinkle is so easy to place
And I only write them down just in case
That you die
Let's take a look at these crows feet, just look
Sitting on the prettiest eyes
Sixty 25th of Decembers
Fifty-nine 4th of Julys
Not through the age or the failure, children
Not through the hate or despise
Take a good look at these crows feet
Sitting on the prettiest eyes
Line Three I forget
But I think, I think it was our first ever bet
And the horse we backed was short of a leg
Never mind
Line Four in a park
And the things, the things that people do in the dark
I could hear the faintest beat of your heart
Then we did
Now you're older and I look at your face
Every wrinkle is so easy to place
And I only write them down just in case
You should die
Lets take a look at these crows feet, just look
Sitting on the prettiest eyes
Sixty 25th of Decembers
Fifty-nine 4th of Julys
You can't have too many good times, children
You can't have too many lines
Take a good look at these crows feet
Sitting on the prettiest eyes
Well my eyes look like a map of the town
And my teeth are either yellow or they're brown
But you'll never hear the crack of a frown
When you are here
You'll never hear the crack
Of a frown

I can never get through the last verse of that song without a tear coming to my eye - a happy one of course!
I love it x

Just thought of this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-iaNY9sWN8) as well, great song!
How about, "My Funny Valentine" A lovely song.
A bit late for Valentine's day, but this (http://vorpalstick.com/stuff/audio/rolling_stone_top_500/246%20-%20Jackie%20Wilson%20-%20%28Your%20Love%20Keeps%20Lifting%20Me%29%20High er%20And%20Higher.mp3) one does it for me.
And this (http://www.sh-barcockers.com/media/Van_Morrison_-_Brown_Eyed_Girl.mp3) one.
Plus umpteen 80s, lighter-waving ballads I'm too embarrassed to post :hihi: .
