💕Happy Valentine’s Day, lovebirds!💕

Whether you're planning a romantic candlelight dinner, a cozy movie night, or just keeping it lowkey, let music be your cupid. Because it’s music that can turn this special occasion into something unforgettable.

Think about a love story without music playing in the background—sounds dull, right?

Love and music are deeply connected. Some songs take you back to your first crush—the butterflies, the shy glances, the nervous smiles, the thrill of something new. Others remind you of long walks, late-night calls, or that one dance you'll never forget.

This Valentine’s Day, let’s relive those moments with a perfect playlist of 10 romantic songs.

But before we jump into the playlist, here’s an interesting fact about Valentine’s Day: Did you know the first-ever Valentine’s card was written in prison?

In the 15th century, Charles, Duke of Orleans, sent a love poem to his wife while he was imprisoned in the Tower of London. Even the walls of a prison couldn’t hold back love’s power.

How did it start?

Valentine’s Day traces back to ancient Rome. The most popular story is about Saint Valentine, a priest who secretly helped couples get married when Emperor Claudius II banned marriages for soldiers. He was caught and executed on February 14th, and later, people started celebrating love in his honor.

Over the centuries, Valentine’s Day evolved into a festival of romance, where people express love through letters, chocolates, flowers, and of course, music & dance!

And if Cupid - the Roman God of Love-  had a playlist of the 10 most romantic love songs, this would be it!
