On this day: the curiosities from the world of music on January 12

Rock love songs, poignant love songs, very romantic love songs: if you are looking for a romantic song to dedicate, take a look at this list made by 'VH1', which ranked the 100 best love songs of all time.

'VH1' is a historic US satellite channel, founded in 1985 and initially dedicated only to the broadcast of music videos that included famous artists such as Bon Jovi, Tina Turner, Elton John, Sting, Diana Ross, Kenny G and Anita Bake.

Here, according to 'VH1', are what could be considered the 10 best love songs of all time.

Roger Waters was a co-founder and historical member of the British music group Pink Floyd, in which he served primarily as bassist and vocalist.

Waters was also the historical author and creator of the underlying themes of some of the group's most famous albums such as "The Dark Side of the Moon", "The Wall" or "Animals". After becoming leader of the group, Roger Waters left band in 1985, pursuing a solo career.

A curious anecdote about a statement Waters made in the 1980s, in a famous interview with Times in which he had said, ""Atom Heart Mother", here is a perfect example of an album that should be thrown in the trash can and never listened to again. It's really horrible and embarrassing."

Dance music is a genre that has evolved a great deal over the decades, adding many new elements also thanks to the contribution of electronic music. 

The well-known US music magazine 'Rolling Stone' has tried to draw up a personal ranking of the best dance songs of all time, capable of making the history of this musical genre, also helping to define the sound of the various musical decades. 

Obviously, there is nothing more personal than musical taste, and even in this case, the ranking does not define which songs are the absolute best: certainly, however, these songs have marked the history of the dance genre.

Have you ever found yourself humming, vocally and in your head, the melody or lyrics of certain songs even when you don't want to, to the point that that musical tune can't get out of your mind?

Nothing to worry about: this experience happens to about 90 percent of people at least once a week, and at most it can be a little annoying not to be able to stop a melody that repeats incessantly in your head.

In more than 40 years of music, the US West Coast scene has rocked the entire environment with a huge variety of music, not only in Los Angeles and the Bay Area, but also in Sacramento, Phoenix, Seattle and other cities in the region.

2Pac, Dr. Dre, and Snoop Dogg are just three of the best known in a scene that is truly wide-ranging and encompasses a huge variety of artists and countless hits. Rolling Stone attempted to compile a list of the 100 greatest hip-hop hits that have been produced on the West Coast, and the task was certainly not easy.

To compile the list, the magazine used editors and a team of critics led by Bay Area writer and long-time RS contributor Mosi Reeves.
