It must be love

“It must be love” by Alan Jackson is a song I has been drilled into my brain known since I was born because it was constantly playing on our cd player. Alan Jackson is my favorite artist of all time, he has been since I can remember and he will continue to be until die. A lot of kids my age have no idea who he is, but that’s ok, he will be my special artist that I’m the only person that is obsessed with him.

Here’s the chorus:

It must be love, it must be love.

 I fall like a sparrow and fly like a dove.

 You must be the dream I been dreaming of,

 oh what a feeling, it must be love!

               These words always make me happy. They remind me of my childhood so much. These words bring my mom and dad’s voice to my memory of them singing this. I love how pure Alan Jacksons voice is. He doesn’t add any “weirdness” to his voice (like riffs), he just simply sings the notes. He doesn’t try to sound to country, he just has the perfect tone that makes his songs so easy to listen to and enjoy.

First I get cold and hot

 think I'm on fire, but I'm not.

 Oh, what a pain I've got,

 it must be love!

 There's nothing I can do,

 all that I want is you.

 Look what I'm going through,

 it must be love!

This is the beginning of the song. These words make the song very cute because you can tell by the lyrics and the way that he sings it that he really is in love. The simplicity of the song makes the song a good one in my eyes because everyone can relate and it’s just a charming song that you can easily dance to or sing along to. It’s what I like to call “a good feeling” song because it makes you feel happy just to listen to it. (334)
