This is for All you Lovers Out There (Valentine's Day Playlist)

Ok so I may have ripped that title line off from Marvin Berry in Back to the Future before he launches into "Earth Angel." But I digress.

So it's the day before Valentine's Day and we thought it appropriate to put together a few of our favorite matters of the heart songs, most of which are relatively new recordings, with a few that reach back 10-15 years. This playlist is culled together from our blog team comprised of several staffers that tend to have pretty varied tastes in music, featuring special guest selections by Ava Jackson in our executive office. While putting this together, she and I nerded out about the Decemberists' Hazards of Love and what an impact this had on our lives when it was released. If you haven't yet listened to that record from front to back, it's an amazing concept album and worth some immediate attention.

We hope you enjoy your Valentine's Day and that this playlist has some role in making it sublime. I'll also be working on an ANTI-Valentine's Day playlist, which should be extremely fun to build in it's own cruel way.
