what about Erev Shel Shoshanim?

Hi

Just want to say that Israeli's have adopted TU B"AV - 15th of the month of 
AV - this year falling on August 2nd - as a Jewish Valentine's Day. 
Fortunately for the more orthodox Jews, this date falls AFTER Tisha B'Av 
therefore we can celebrate! I am hoping to instate a new tradition in my 
shul for singing Jewish love songs on Tu B'Av this year - if I can get my 
act together to find and learn some good songs by then! Songs off the top 
of my head might include:

Abanee bee - as someone already suggested
Dodi Lee - or any songs from Shir HaShirim
Ladino Love songs

I would think that any songs expressing positive feelings about love 
(between two people, of the land, of G-d) would be appropriate. Any ideas?
