Customer Reviews

A mirror of the video version.
Much more things going on, production-wise than the version that I have downloaded to my computer. It's great though, gives it more personality.

The version I hear when I listen to it (downloaded version) has just the piano and vocals. Nice, but no production whatsoever. It's great, but not this. The video version is much livelier.

The song itself is pretty impressive though; it lets us know who Sara actually is; what she wants; needs and most importantly, how she thinks! Lyrics are subtly interesting and the piano work is somewhat infectious, albeit simple.

I've heard the samples here, and although they weren't enough to make me want to purchase the album, it doesn't take away from this awesome single and I will still give them another go someday!

5 stars.

"I won't write you a love song"
Sara Bareilles' "Love Song" is a refreshing change- from its electrifying opening piano chords to her lyrics about a dysfunctional relationship. It's irresistible. It swings. It's not the usual "Love Song" despite the title. It's a cry against manufactured emotions (Bareilles is definitely taking on the prefab pop world) It's also a battle cry against manipulation in relationships. For a deep subject, Bareilles tackles it deftly&beautifully. "Love Song" isn't the usual old-fashioned love song. It captures your attention. It's raw&personal. It's a "love song" you'll love!

Fun tune
I really like this song because of the fun, skippy piano melody and the story behind why she wrote it. Lately it's getting plenty of air-play.
