The World's Cheesiest Love Song Playlist

What are the World's Cheesiest Love Songs?

Hmmm... Well, it's a matter of debate, but this playlist is at the very least a great start in getting to the bottom of it. A fine collection of gooey, bowel-clogging slag that can provide the foundation for your own personal love fondue.

There have been more cheesy love songs written than most would ever care to hear, but don't fret. We've filtered out anything with even the tiniest amount of artistic credibility to help create the ultimate in love song trumpery. Only the most sappy, overproduced, pop hit fromage has been included.

This playlist works it two diametrically opposed manners. The first is as a group of emotionally charged tear-jerkers that will truly appeal to some percentage of the population. You know the type. These are the people that will be the first to die in the initial chaos that ensues when Armageddon unfolds.

The second is as a satirical look into the very worst of pop music that will make being alone on Valentine's day seem like the better choice.

I have not ordered the list as many of these songs are true equals in their woe.

wow.....what a list.

all i can say is that my favorite part of foreigners "i want to know what love is" is when when he comes in behind the big chorus with the gritty and soulful line "i'm feelin so much love" ........it made me feel how much love he was feeling.

fun seeing bryan adams and i gotta say i love "heaven" ....theres a good list for you "heavenly songs"

bryan adams - "heaven"
warrant - "heaven"
eric clapton - "tears in heaven"
belinda carlise - "heaven is a place on earth"

you can steal this idea....you come up with some good stuff.

3. Yahoo! Music User -
If there is a hell, these songs will be playing there.

4. Joey Manalang -
Have you seen the movie ROCKSTAR where Mark Wahlberg's cop brother says over breakfast--"What's wrong with Air Supply?" I laughed so hard in that one scene.

5. -
Glad to see you included people who did have some good music, cuz they deserve to get busted for their cheese, too... At first I felt like throwing up, and then just started laughing. Pretty good start, glad I didn't have to listen. Fun, thanks.

I have to admit that I am a huge fan of the cheese, and I've had more than a few of those songs on loop many times before.

Great list! I'm especially happy to see that All-4-One made it in there, as their cheese-tastic music always makes me happy.

7. AndyD -
LOL! I gotta admit a coupla these songs I like. Every rose has it's thorn takes me back to when I was like, 8, but that K-ci and JoJo song is gonna play at my wedding!

8. Dustin Blair -
Aw come on. ALMOST every one of these songs are good. They are better than the crap that is out today. How can u not like Journey's Faithfully, one of the best love songs ever.

9. jonesandblondie -
