Just the way you are: 5 feel-good songs on Valentines Day






Sometimes the date February 14th can be a really downer for singletons. Couples kissing, holding hands, giving and receiving chocolates and the restaurants are filled with love-struck diners.

I doesn't have to be all that bad. I'm making the most of being single today. I can do what I want when I want and still do loving things for people even without romantic intentions. This morning I posted on Twitter my heart shaped toast that I have been making for my family for countless Valentines Day breakfasts', then later I will be making some cupcakes with heart shaped marshmallows I bought from Sainsbury's before winding the day up with a cooked meal I will be whipping up for my parents and I.


As well as doing other things for people, Valentines Day is a good time to treat yourself. I'll definitely be snuggling up under a blanket to watch the classic rom-com Valentines Day (2009) but also I have created a feel-good list of music that make any single person feel a bit more loved.

Here are my top five from my list of 50:


(1) Just the Way You Are - Bruno Mars

(2) All of Me - John Legend

(3) You are Loved (Don't Give Up) - Josh Groban 

(4) Everything - Michael Bublé

(5) She's Always a Woman - Billy Joel
