Songs for the Lovers

As another Valentine's Day approaches and my plans consist of movies and food as per usual (#foreveralone) I have decided to make music my valentine and pick 24 songs, newish and oldish, that I will be listening to this Valentine's Day that are about or sound like L.O.V.E (or the loss of love... what can I say, I'm a pessimist)
