Are you looking for a new love? Healing from a breakup or loss? Longing to reconnect with an old flame? Seeking someone to watch over you? Attracting what you desire starts with a vision. What you can conceive and believe, you can achieve.
So, think of this playlist as a musical version of your vision board. The 25 dream-catching, uplifting and sentimental songs we’ve compiled are intended to keep your focus on attracting a lover who is passionate, steadfast and true. A lover who makes you double over with laughter, smile and swoon when he or she walks in the room. A life partner you can count on in the good times and the bad. Someone who is bewitched by your Black Girl Magic and treats you like the queen you are. Your crown is rarely crooked when your true love is around.
The first step, as Yolanda Adams offers on the musical prayer, “Open My Heart,” is to ask your higher power to guide you until you’re sure. You are already whole and divine. You want a significant other who will complement your life, not complete you.
We know your soul mate is out there — “Haven’t You Heard,” they’re looking for you, too. Lionel Richie is certain “Love Will Find a Way.” Prince proclaims, “Nothing Compares 2 U.” Rashaan Patterson cherishes your divine love “Sent From Heaven.” And Boyz II Men are ready to put a ring on it, down “On Bended Knee.”
As for the baes you’ve left behind, remember every experience offers a chance to grow. Now you are free to make room for “Love Under New Management” and to be “Prepared” to find “Steady Love.” As you swipe left or right on dating apps and meet potential paramours for coffee and conversation, keep in mind, “I’m Special.”
When it comes to attracting a new love, be specific about the type of mate you desire. As Salt-N-Pepa tease on “Whatta Man,” are you holding out for a brother with “a Denzel face?” Or as Tracy Chapman muses on “You’re the One,” are you open to loving someone who may not be a perfect physical match, but is perfect for you?
While you wait for Mr. or Ms. Right to “Get Here,” find solace in hopeful and heartfelt duets by Karyn White and Babyface (“Love Saw It”); Beyonce and Ed Sheeran (“Perfect Duet”); and Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway (“Back Together Again”). In your quest for love, pause and find joy in the process. As the old saying goes, there’s plenty of fish in the sea. Channel that energy of abundance with a little help from the Weather Girls’ disco anthem, “It’s Raining Men.”
Whatever you do, keep the faith and have fun flirting, sis. We truly believe “All This Love” is waiting for you. Just don’t be afraid to answer “When Love Calls.”
