Love Story (AKA our new obsession) on Disney+ has really hit a home run with audiences in the last couple of weeks.
The love story of John F Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette (one of the 90s biggest style icons still referenced to this day), ended in tragedy in 1999 when their plane, piloted by John, crashed into the Atlantic Ocean.
When many fans heard that Ryan Murphy was bringing John and Carolyn’s love story to the screen, there was widespread outrage, but since its release, the show has gained significant popularity.
Aside from the gorgeous leads, Paul Anthony Kelly and Sarah Pidgeon, the fashion and the show’s soundtrack have also been praised.
And, as someone who has been listening to the songs on repeat, I think it’s only right to highlight some of the tracks that have been stuck in my head since watching the show.
