More than any other day of the year, music sets the mood on Valentine's Day. However, you want to set the right mood or else romance could turn to ridicule and you could find yourself single. This said, avoid adding these 14 love songs to your Cupid's day playlist at all costs. Aerosmith's “I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing” Remember “Sweet Emotion”? “Walk This Way”?

Shops throughout the area ready for a busy week ahead.
With Valentine’s Day approaching, shops across Morris County are preparing themselves for what is sure to be a busy week leading up to the big day.
