If men were to beg, plead and yearn for love again will it change the world? Who knows. It’s definitely a genre of music that needs to be brought back from near extinction! Here is a list of songs where men were able to communicate their feelings and YEARN
On Bended Knees – Boyz II Men
The kings of yearning! This songs a story about a man regretting what they’ve done, unsure of how everything went wrong and wants rekindle their relationship
I’m gonna swallow my pride, say I’m sorry
Stop pointing fingers, the blame is on me
I want a new life, and I want it with you
If you feel the same, don’t ever let it go
You gotta believe in the spirit of love
It’ll heal all things, it won’t hurt anymore
No, I don’t believe our love’s terminal
I’m down on my knees begging you please
Come home
Let Me Love You – Mario
This song is about Mario observing a relationship, maladaptive dreaming/yearning about how he would treat his love interest better than her current man.
If I was your man, baby, you’d never worry ’bout what I do
I’d be comin’ home, back to you, every night, doin’ you right
You’re the type of woman who deserves good things
Fistful of diamonds, a hand full of rings
Baby, you’re a star
I just wanna show you you are
As Long As You Love Me – BSB
Nostaglic heartthrobs, currently problematic ‘unc’s. The wide age range within this group allowed them to yearn to a big age demographic of listeners!
This one is about them being in a situationship unsure where its headed complete with unneccesary thirst trapping scenes of them in the rain semi-topless (except Nick because he was underage? idk I WAS more of a Brian gay) Fun fact the album version only has Brian on lead vocals!
Quit playing games with my heart
Quit playing games with my heart (With my heart)
Before you tear us apart (My heart)
Quit playing games with my heart
I should have known from the start
You know you have got to stop (From my heart)
You’re tearing us apart (My heart)
Quit playing games
I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing – Aerosmith
This song is about a man not wanting to miss a moment *shrug*
I don’t wanna miss one smile
I don’t wanna miss one kiss
Well, I just wanna be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just wanna hold you close
I feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time
Yeah (Yeah)
Yeah (Yeah)
YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Tearin’ Up My Heart – Nsync
Lastly this one is about a man having conflicting feelings about being with a women, their heart is tearing whether they’re with or without this woman, who knows how this will effect the tour?!
Let it go
If you want me, girl, let me know
I am down on my knees
I can’t take it anymore
