It is rare for me to like a song, then hear a cover of it by another band and like it MORE.
This song was a favorite of mine when my hubby and I were first dating (back when it was done by The Cure....AWESOMENESS!)
When I heard the re-make of Love Song done by 311, I was FLOORED! They actually made the song even BETTER! I still like The Cure, and the original version still moves me, but today in Bed Bath & Beyond I heard the 311 version and have NOT been able to get it out of my head!
"however far away...I will always love you..."
Now, go post YOUR song for the week, and be sure to visit Amber at Goodnight Moon and link up so we can listen in!

I like this a lot. The rebel that I am (ha), I've never heard the original, and like this so much I might not look for it. Great pick. Are things better with you? I've been praying.
LOVELY song. It reminds of Hawaii soooooo much :)

Great song pick! I much prefer this version to the cure's(but that's probably because my generation heard 311's first, lol) Now it's gonna be stuck in my head too! lol, but I don't mind :) Thanks for reminding me of this song.
This is one of my favorite songs by them. I saw them in concert and they sang this and it was seriously amazing. Great pick!
I've heard this version before, and your right, it is way better! Maybe you and your man can go out on a date together and play this in your car ride? Maybe...;)
Thinking of you girlie!!!!! Thanks for linking up each and every week!
Best version for sure. Love it!
This is a favorite of mine. Now that I think about it... why was this not played at our wedding... Grr.
So beautiful! Thanks for sharing. Trying to follow you, but the box isn't working for some reason. Will swing back later.
