That’s Amore

Music, Nostalgia, Songs

‘Love’ is the most popular theme by far in pop music songs. This week we present an array of ‘Amore’ and ‘Love’ songs. We start with Dean Martin‘s signature song from the fifties ‘That’s Amore’. Other popular singers include Ben E King (Amor), Jose Feliciano (Adios Amour) and Gene Pitney (Only Love Can Break A Heart). Two interesting songs from the fifties are the one hit wonder by Phil Phillips (Sea Of Love) and the original ‘Chanson D’Amour’ from the Fontane Sisters. Aussie singer Bobby Cookson presents a nice rendition of the Ray Peterson hit ‘I Could Have Loved You So Well’.
