I want a song for my boyfriend’s birthday. he is aboard and I want to give him a beautiful song for his birthday. a song like BECAUSE YOU LOVED ME__ celine dion. plz help me.

“Because You Loved me”  doesn’t fit very well on the Folk Show format,  so we can’t promise to play it on-air for you,  but you can find this song and many others from Dion on I-tunes for less than a dollar,  and I think there’s a way to provide a gift card so your boyfriend can download it wherever he is.  I’m sure there are other download services that also have it. Good luck,  and thanks for listening to WPSU.

This is going to sound like a shameless plug for one of my friends… and it is… but if you really want something personalized and unique, Phillly-area songwriter Erik Balkey has a custom songwriting business that will write just what you want to say to him. http://www.customsongsbyerik.com

Now, the shameless ad part aside, I only mention this here because I think Erik really has a gift for this sort of thing, and I think he’s written some beautiful, moving songs on commission. (He’s also written one of the 3 best baseball songs ever written, btw, Baseball in My Blood.)
