Love!

So, as mentioned before, I'm not a music person. I studied TESL (Teaching English as a Second Language) and minored in Literature, so I'm more of a language person I suppose... That being said, I tend to be very conscious of the lyrics in a piece of music (which probably contributes to the fact that I dislike most of what comes on air nowadays).

One thing that always peeved me though, was love. In lyrics. I stopped being peeved by love as a concept a few years back when I met my lovely wife :P

In any case, how many times have you heard "love" coming at the end of a sentence in a song and rolled your eyes thinking, "oh gee, I wonder how the next sentence is gonna end, 'stars/skies above'?", and yes, true enough, it IS "stars/skies above". Or the reverse, whatever.

See, why choose to use a word which has such limited rhyming capability?

Let's have a looksee:

A - Above (duh, the default, most artists just stop right here without going further down the list)
B - 'bove (rappers maybe?)
C - Clove (maybe if some chefs wanted to sing?)
D - Dove (animal activist songs?)
E - Eove (the word does not exist)
F - Fove (as for E)
G - Glove, Guv (either an apparel enthusiast, or some English dude)
H - Have (with a French accent)
I - ... (Yeah, I got nothing)
J - Jove ("You I love, by Jove!")
K - ... (more nothing)
L - Love (now you're just being lazy)
M - Mauve (I don't even..)
N - Enuv (a 14 year old trying to sound cool?)
O - ... (more of nothing)
P - ... (nothing more)
Q - ... (okay, practically nothing starts with Q)
R - Rove (okay, forgive me, that was racist)
S - Shove (domestic violence in songs?)
T - ... (ain't got anything here)
U - ... (or here)
V - Valve (oooh!)
W - Wuv (5 year old trying to write a song)
X - ... (nothin)
Y - ... (nothing)
Z - Zebra (haha, kidding, Zebra doesn't rhyme with love!)


See, there's a lack of potential when using the word! Why can't they use "care", "affection", "adore", etc, where the rhyming would have much more flavor to it?

So, join me in a movement to remove the usage of love from the end of a sentence in music, and replace it with one of the many synonyms which opens up a realm of possibilities!

Or to have more songs which include "valve" cause that would be some creative shit there.
