Valentine's Day Music Top 20 Countdown: #20-11

Putting aside the bitterness of Singles Awareness Day, there still is a holiday all about love…so here’s my favorite songs to celebrate!

20.) “Stickwitu”
The Pussycat Dolls
This is such a sweet pop song, perfect for those everlasting promises of love, devotion, and shortenin’ words together for the sake of a song.

19.) “Lucky”
Jason Mraz & Colbie Caillat
Who would’ve thought that Jason Mraz could get any better? But of course when you add an equally talented and beautiful artist like Colbie Caillat, you just can’t go wrong.

18.) “Love Will Never Do (Without You)”
Janet Jackson
I’m taking it back old school with this adorable Janet song. Because after all, love will never do, never do without you!

17.) “Angel Of Mine”
Monica
A song from my time growing up, Monica had it (and still has it) going on in all the right places. And who can forget the beautiful Tyrese in the video?!

16.) “Just The Way You Are”
Bruno Mars
The perfect love song of today from start to finish, Bruno Mars really knows how to compliment a girl. Vulgarity doesn’t play into this song at all. It’s all so uplifting, which makes the song even more sweet.

15.) “Love You I Do”
Jennifer Hudson
I have to put some power belting in this countdown SOMEWHERE! And who better to belt out love songs like J-Hud herself! You go Ms. Effie White!

14.) “Love”
Keyshia Cole
Here’s the song from Keyshia Cole that stole my heart. And once again, who can forget the beautiful Tyrese in the video?!

13.) “Like A Star”
Corinne Bailey Rae
Corinne Bailey Rae, with that sweet whisper voice from the UK has it going on for sure. The sweet poetic beauty in this song really tugs at the heartstrings. And doesn’t love a little peace and quiet in a song every now and then…

12.) “Umbrella”
Rihanna & Jay-Z
The world of pop music has another gem on their hands with this sweet song. It was written for Mary J. Blige, they tried giving it to Britney Spears and Danity Kane, but the song belongs to Rihanna. With its sweet lyrics and catchy hook, it’s no wonder this love song was nominated for Grammy’s Song of the Year.

11.) “If I Ain’t Got You”
Alicia Keys
When Alicia Keys is fallin’ out of love, we can feel her pain. But when she’s fallin’ IN love, we’re right there singing it with her. This song is so uplifting and poetic. It’s time that we put aside the material things and just love one another.
