#152

I CAN’T MAKE YOU LOVE ME

“…’Cause I can’t make you love me

 if you don’t,

You can’t make your heart feel,

Something it won’t...”

Bonnie Raitt's 1991 album 'Luck Of the Draw' featured the mighty ballad "I Can't Make You Love Me". The protagonist realizes that the one she loves does not feel the same way. 

Throughout the ballad, the lyrics convey the the fate of the relationship. 

The song has since been covered by a wide range of performers, including George Michael, Adele and Boyz II Men.

As new songs are covered on this blog, a definitive version will be added to a spotify playlist. Find it and the other Caffé Latté playlists at:
