The audio has been corrupted for over a year now and Paladonia no longer seems to be maintaining his or her video uploads . . . because I love this video so much, I downloaded and re-uploaded it so it works now. If Paladonia would like me to take the video down, I'll do so immediately. Meanwhile, you can still enjoy it by searching for "The Book of Love - YouTube video by "Paladonia""

@mep338 Wrong. This song is by The Magnetic Fields. Paul Gabriel did a cover, that just happened to become more well known than the original. Do your research before jumping to conclusions. ;)

A shame the hammer came down, this was a work of art in its own right.

this is good but i like gabriel's version a lot better

I don't know if it's really humor, or simply the realization of some of life and love's absurdities, but one of those things is present.



Gabriel's version takes away from the humor that is so quintessential of Merrit's lyrics.
Every track off of 69 love songs is, obviously, a love song. But Gabriel turns it into this epic ballad - not a bad thing, but I prefer the quaint simplicity of the original.

this video, imo, is somehow perfect, even with the audio form teh vids at times. Odd, but perfect. Thanks for making it and posting it.
