3. If You Leave Me Now - Chicago
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32GdEFADy6s A love like ours is love that's hard to find How could we let it slip away We've come too far to leave it all behind How could we end it all this way When tomorrow comes and we'll both regret The things we say today. Covered over 100 times by different artists, Chicago's If You Leave Me Now is definitely one of the greatest cheesy love song of all time. The song was number one in America for two weeks and number one in the UK for three weeks. The song has a great sing a long quality - particularly when you get to the "oooooh ooooh oh baby please don't go!" bit which gives you license to howl like a banshee for fun and to take the mickey out of the song's earnestness. A karaoke classic.
