Valentine’s Day Playlist: Secondhand Serenade Loves You! at The Insider

Exclusive Secondhand Serenede Video Preview: ‘Your Call’ + The Return Of FNMTV

I don’t wanna shatter any illusions here, but if you’re looking to a professional blogger for advice on anything romantic, you have some serious thinking to do. That’s why I’m handing this Valentine’s Day post off to a pro. John Vesely, aka Secondhand Serenade has more magnetism in one frosted tip than the whole rest of the Internet combined. Can the Internet play piano and sing with its eyes closed? No. It doesn’t even have feelings (or eyes). All it can do is make a heart out of a bracket and a three. Weak. John Vesely was born to tell you he loves you. Stick with him. Here’s a special Valentine’s Day message and a crazy romantic love-playlist from the man himself:

I’ve always been a lover, not a fighter which is why I love this time of year. And one of my true loves is obviously music. So to come up with a list of long songs/videos is no problem for a guy like me. It’s the time of year where you hear songs you may have heard 100 times before, but you suddenly realize they have a special meaning or remind you of someone close to your heart. So hopefully you can take a look at the videos I decided to go with, and let it remind you of whoever may be that certain someone for you.

+ Jason Mraz, “I’m Yours” - A simple song and a simple video. Both are undeniable.
+ The Fray, “You Found Me” - The video showcases both a great band and a beautiful city.
+ Thriving Ivory, “Angels on the Moon” - These guys are good friends of mine. They went all out on this video.
+ Plain White T’s, “Hey There Deliah” - One of the biggest songs and best videos of a few years back.
+ Katy Perry, “Thinking of You” - I love her retro style, which is overly evident in this video.
+ Kanye West, “Love Lockdown” - Kanye is always evolving and this is a colorful, left-of-center display of his art.
+ Justin Nozuka, “After Tonight” - He’s a great new young talent, which is clear as day in this, his first video.
+ R. Kelly, “Real Talk” - Because the video is just as real as the song.
+ We The Kings, “Secret Valentine” - Travis’s hair turns me on.
+ Augustana, “Sweet and Low” - I love how the song was written it was written very personally.

Wow … Thanks, John!!
