Aries are bold and confident, which means you're not afraid to express your feelings when you've fallen head over heels. In fact, you prefer making the first move.

"Aries have a fiery spirit in love, so they need a song about proudly expressing how they feel about their partner," says Stardust, who suggests "The Power of Love," a classic power ballad from fellow Aries Celine Dion.

This song is about choosing to choose your partner every single day, and it shows that you love your special someone for exactly who they are, flaws and all.

Taurus likes to let things evolve naturally in love. Slow and steady wins your heart, and you'd do anything for your partner once you're smitten. That's why Bryan Adams' "(Everything I Do) I Do It for You" makes sense for your first dance song.

"Tauruses are guarded, and this song is about breaking down hard walls to find that everlasting love," Stardust explains.

The lyrics say it best: "There's no love like your love." And this soft rock ballad will ensure there's not a dry eye in the house.

Geminis just want to have fun! For you, falling in love should feel like finding your best friend. You're very friendly and outgoing, so it's easy for you to connect with just about anyone—but it takes someone really special to knock you off your feet.

And for you, meeting that perfect person really does feel like love at first sight.
