They Might Be Giants - "Another First Kiss"
Oingo Boingo - "Not My Slave"
Rocket From The Crypt - "Let's Get Busy", "Lipstick", "Tarzan" (more of a wild monkey sex song, really)
Ramones - "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend"
Muse - "Hysteria"

But unrequited love songs/crush songs are my fav... done right, they have a really cool wistful kick to them, or even an antsy rockin' edge:

Rocket From The Crypt - "Eye On You"
The Queers - "Debra Jean"
They Might Be Giants - "Sleeping in the Flowers"
The Clash - "1-2 Crush On You"

And anything and everything by The Exploding Hearts.

I've said it before and I'll say it again
Gerry Rafferty's "Right Down the Line" is of epic proportions

that and Leon Haywood's "I Wanna to do Something Freaky to You" works better than a night at Popeye's followed by sitting in the car drinking Mickey's Big Mouths

i'll add "All Along The Watchtower" by the Hendrix Experience. not sure if it's a "love song", but i'm sure in love with it.

Just Like Heaven - The Cure
Into Your Arms - The Lemonheads
Someone Like You - Van Morrison
To Make You Feel My Love - Bob Dylan and Garth Brooks' versions are both pretty good (I don't usually like Garth, or any country for that matter, but he does this song well)

wishin’ i was skinny,
wishin’ that the whole world knew my name,
wishin’ i was thrillin’, that i would never be to blame,
wishin’ i was kissin’ a girl with lips smooth as pearl,
wishin’ i was pretty, wish that i could wrap the world round my finger,
wishin’ i had money, wishin’ for the time to spend it all,
wishin’ i was pretty, wish that i could twist the world round my finger,
but i would always love you,
i guess that would never change.
