Top 10 Slow Dance Songs

No, you haven't been kidnapped by aliens and teleported back in time to your high school prom.

This time, you're searching for that perfect slow dance song that'll impress your significant other - or maybe you're just plain bored on a lonely Friday night searching for a list. Because let's face it: We love lists!

10. Endless Love - Lionel Richie & Diana Ross
What do you get when you cross two legends together? A slow dance hit like "Endless Love" is sure to add a romantic vibe to an otherwise already perfect dance date. The duet is perfect -- it showcases the intimacy and special relationship between two people in love; Ross' vocals complement Richie's rhythm-and-blues style, showing that an "Endless Love" can exist.

9. I Don't Want to Miss a Thing - Aerosmith
We both know you read that and thought about "Armageddon." But this '90s classic is literally out of this world -- just watch the music video and you'll see exactly why. Add sultry piano accompaniment and Aerosmith's rock background and you've got a slow dance song that'll fit in for any special occasion.

8. I'll Stand By You - Pretenders
Dance to this song and it'll make your love stronger. Another '90s hit, "I'll Stand By You" isn't your average prom slow dance song. The lyrics actually seem to have a deeper meaning behind them, such as "You're standing at the crossroads/ Don't know which path to choose/ Let me come along, 'cause even if you're wrong/ I'll stand by you." This song doesn't even try to be overly romantic; the subtle rock underpinning of the song actually uplifts it and leaves the listeners (and dancers) in a corny, yet undoubtedly lovey-dovey, mood.

7. Lady in Red - Chris de Burgh
If even thinking about de Burgh's soothing voice doesn't make you want to get your slow dance shoes on, then there's no hope for you. Top that off with a song called "Lady in Red" and the mood is set. The instrumentals are a bit complex, but once you hear "Lady in red/ is dancing with me (cheek to cheek)/ There's nobody here/ It's just you and me," you will realize that this is the perfect song to dance to whether your lady (or you) is wearing red, white, or black.
