Leading the category of songs that reference "love" in their titles, country crooner Faith Hill's new "Like We Never Loved at All," a collaboration with her country star husband Tim McGraw, takes the top spot with 12,187 plays since February 1, 2006.
Newcomer Keyisha Cole has also made her mark with the soulful and sorrowful "Love," taken from her debut album, "The Way It Is," which garnered 6,542 plays.
In addition to the hits of the moment, familiar love songs like Barry White's "Can't Get Enough Of Your Love" (2,066 plays) and Tina Turner's "What's Love Got to Do With It" (2,084 plays) continue to strike a chord with contemporary listeners during this time of year. For some, '80s favorites like Steve Winwood's "Bring Me A Higher Love" (1,628 plays) and Soft Cell's "Tainted Love" (1,666 plays) are bringing back memories of high school loves won and lost.
