AMG Review of Love Songs

Andy Kellman
All Music Guide

A compilation based on an artist's love songs makes for a good Valentine's Day tie-in, and sometimes people just want to hear the romantic material free of interruption and get down to some baby-making. Aaron Neville's Love Songs works for those who don't want to hear "A Change Is Gonna Come" along with "The Ten Commandments" or "Can't Stop My Heart From Loving You." This particular disc concentrates on his work during the '90s, including "Pledging My Love," "Close Your Eyes," "It Feels Like Rain," "My Precious Star," and "Everyday of My Life."
