Well another Valentines day has come round again. To get you in that romantic mood we thought we would put up the classic Beatles track all you need is love. When putting together the Febraury issue of European Vibe Magazine we put some Valentine facts and figures in our Bits & Pieces section. For those of you who missed it here they are:
214 million roses are sold each Valentine’s day (wonder if that includes the people who come into the bars in Madrid!)
12% of US couples buy each other perfume as a present
6,000 marriages take place in the US every day
3 elements characterise Sternberg’s Triangular Theory of Love: intimacy, passion and commitment
And last but not least the word “love” is used 82 times in the Beatles track all you need is love
