THE 
'SIMPLY LOVE' EXPERIENCE


Listen To 
RM Radio

Donna Summer -Love To Love You Baby


Ahh Love, Love, Love! It's said that Love makes the world go round, 

and this is certainly true for most forms of modern Popular music - and

very much so for Rock. It has been claimed that love and sex are the

basic drivers of all human activity at some level, and Love has

certainly been the major substance of most Western music since the

very beginning. And in Rock, Love has indeed been its major theme

by a long way. See below for some common examples.


Sonny and Cher loved each other
&
Joe Cocker
loved his girlfriend  


Robert Palmer was addicted to it & Jim loved Pamela

And the Beatles claimed it was all you needed!



But we could go on for ever about Love in Pop music - love between 

two and more people, love between men and women and gay and
 
lesbian love. Pop music is absolutely overwhelmingly about human

love. But in modern Pop and even Rock many other forms of love are 


also expressed. So let's explore them.


What about Loving Your Animal? Cat Stevens certainly did when he sang
 'I love my dog'.


Go To I Love My Animal

What about Loving 
Your 'Motor'?
The Beach Boys did - they loved their 'Little Deuce Coup'

What about 'Loving The Environment'? 
Michael Jackson did
 Go To Loving The Environment

Picture

What about 'Loving Your Country Or Your Home'? Peter Allen did when he sang 'I Still Call Australia Home'.
Go To Loving Your 
Home/Country

But when its all said and done - apart from loving your animals, your motor toys, your environment and your home and country, much of Rock music has been and always will be about loving women and men - and all variants of - and when that love becomes strong enough - it usually
always leads to:
