Love Rollercoaster

Somehow songs about “Love [Blanks],” where [Blanks] are locations and devices arose at work today. How we arrived on this, I do not know, but we started chaining such songs together into complicated stupidity. Something about being a Love Machine who takes a Love Train from the Love Rollercoaster to the Love Shack before sailing off on The Love Boat into the Sea of Love (there was debate about whether or not Love Boat counts, but Wikipedia tells me the theme song was also title “The Love Boat,” so take that, co-workers who argue with me about trifling minutiae).
Two thoughts:
1. You can stick the word “love” in front of anything and make a popular song out of it.
2. I couldn’t think of any songs like “Love City” or “Love Town,” but, to no surprise, the Internet claims that both exist. Well, “Love Town” exists; songwriters have come close to “Love City,” with songs like “City Love” and “Love City Groove.” Which means…
Hackneyed musicians, this title is still available! Now’s the time to scoop it up!
Also available: “Love Country”
“Love Kingdom”
“Love Province”

“Love Cul-de-sac”
“Love Peninsula” (innuendo!)
