Past the greeting card aisles and the chocolate boxes, love is still as complex and ethereal as when most of these songs were written almost 80 years ago. For centuries we've been trying to express this emotion with song and art and language. So this week is an attempt to bring all facets of what we feel during love to the table...infatuation, exuberance, resignation, sensuality, resentment, euphoria, and ultimately...well...what can you call it besides love?

Enjoy.
