I'm sure Knox would gladly sing love songs to Rapunzel. But I honestly never thought about the idea. I apparently don't do love songs. (The sorts of things I sing to Batya are far sillier.)
Rosalie would sing to Emmett, of course. Stuff Like That There (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_-EinTErdQ) is a little happy for her normal mood, but I feel like that's how Emmett makes her feel-- a serious song just might not work for the two of them-- and it's from the era when they were first dating. ♥
Eiji's the type of boy who would sing a song to all the girls at his school at once, but if he had to sing it to the person he really liked, he'd be too embarrassed. Everyone and their mother in Japan knows Valentine Kiss (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5hASZxe4EM), and actually several versions have been done by the Prince of Tennis voice actors, which is a bit disturbing. XD Eiji does not happen to have a version.
Data would sing to anyone who wanted him to, and thoroughly embarrass them. XD I feel like he'd sing something vintage-y too (he did sing "Blue Skies" after all), like Zing! Went the Strings of my Heart (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3h3MOeeLBkc), or De-Lovely (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAa6TJGneqI) or something. I dunno.
My sister says I Just Haven't Met You Yet (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AJmKkU5POA) reminds her of Frederick. I like it. ♥
Maaaybe if Scorpius had to, like he was under an enchantment and was possessed by some Gryffindork spirit, and sang just like a verse or two in someone's general direction, uhh...
At the moment most of mine don't have anyone they'd sing too, but the ones that do should be interesting. Though I admit I don't have a list of love songs handy.
Sameth would sing to Kait and I think it would be something along the lines of "Love you just the way you are."
Jane would sing something teasing and sweet to Tom or she'd sing something in another language but while giving him that particular look at the time.
Moist would never say he was singing a love song at Urquhart or Saffron just that he happened to be singing in their general direction. Then he'd choose something incredibly naughty or playful, nothing serious at all. Oh he might sing "Lady in Red" for Saffron.
Demeter has an entire list of people she'd sing to but her first choice would be a lullaby to her daughter.
Reading through this I realized I actually don't know what exact songs they would sing. Folks who are better at finding music, please help.
Not that the rest of the song is particularly apt, but the title line from Michael Peterson's 'Drink, Swear, Steal and Lie' makes me think of the Moist/Urquhart/Saffron OT3. (That being 'darling you're the reason why I drink, swear, steal and lie'.)
And Urq would probably sing along to 'Lady In Red', even though he can't really sing well, being naughty and playful right beside Moist in Saffron's general direction...
I could see this happening if they were all drunk and incredibly relaxed. Saffron would watch them and make suggestions and not too long into it, things would turn naughty.
Hermione should be prepared to be wooed with some Celestina Warbeck too. Because that'd be the only singer and song Ron would be able to think of on the spot, if he suddenly had the desire to serenade her.
This ... should happen one day. I wonder what Hermione's reaction would be. Probably complete and utter bafflement, mingled with incredulousness, exasperation, and a ridiculous amount of fondness.
Ben would happily sing "All of Me" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVm9q5ZRG1s) to Alicia Masters.
Ult. Ben would sing (assuming he's later in canon) The Cars' "My Best Friend's Girlfriend" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkmkxB6pVzk) but I'm not gonna say to whom as it should be obvious.
Jenks would sing "Don't Leave Me The Way" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elIVoXUJ4V4) for Matalina.
Thalia doesn't do this love thing but if she did she'd likely sing Concrete Blonde's "I Don't Need a Hero" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxUnNCY8rHw).
Barbossa (bushel_o_apples) would only ever sing a love song to the Black Pearl, and it would be something like the Pogues' Lorelei (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZfPlBBx0KIY).
By the way, it's awfully hard to find a love song that can be addressed to an inanimate object. Insofar as a ship can be considered an inanimate object, that is.
Tarik Mansuri (first_runihura) has never had time for things like love, but if he did sing a love song to someone, it would probably be the 22nd century equivalent of a Raï (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ra%C3%AF) song like Cheb Khaled's Didi (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g93odzEUXg8).
Buffy. Because he's done it already and the second time is never as embarrassing.
But if it's got to be someone new, then River. Unless this is some kind of magically-compelled-must-sing-to-the-person-you-love-most scenario, in which case Angel, but only if he couldn't find a handy toothpick to commit suicide with instead.
Edited to add what he'd sing: Intermittantly by Barenaked Ladies to Buffy. Leather by Tori Amos to Angel. Not sure what to River; he says he's never heard a song for her, he'd have to write one. And he's not sure he would understand the words.
The saddest part is, he's firmly convinced his continuing dorkitude is his dark secret, known only to Angel because he was there at the beginning, and Buffy. Whereas in fact the only person who still believes in his cool is probably Dawn. And she might just be humoring him.
Raph: This is an easy one for him and Abigail, because I've already written an OOM scene where this sort of thing happens. They're dancing to it, and he quietly sings along. Pride and Joy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vo23H9J8o8).
Yeah I love my lady....shes long and lean You mess with her....youll see a man get mean
Mike: He loves to sing, and does so often. So this is but a few examples of the songs he's been known to serenade Mel with; Crash Into Me (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esKgGy-3mm4) (in particular the version that ends with, I'll be your Dixie chicken You be my Tennessee lamb), Stay (Wasting Time) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-R8NwJzlxso) (it's the ultimate Mike/Mel-Milliways song), One Week (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fC_q9KPczAg) (Apologies for the ad, but the official video cracks me up).
Now, he's also been known...on occasion, to sing Say Goodbye (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nH9qImq5BD4) to the beautiful ladies who frequent Tortallian Taverns. It's just his way to woo random beauties. Someday I'll convince someone to either animate or make a comic of the OOM I have mentally planned for this particular song.
Running off to work, so only have time for the one, but Bill to Kate would have to either be Tom T. Hall I Love or George Strait The Man In Love With You.
More than likely Bill would be drunk and the song would come on and he'd sing along, but I dunno, maybe not.
Ever since Broadway Goes Brutal, Mia and Draco have occasionally taken time out to sing Beatles songs to each other. One recurring one is 8 Days a Week, which Mia once paid Puss in Boots to sing to Draco in the bar. The latest occurrence of Beatles singing was Draco singing Here Comes the Sun to Mia while she was in labor with Cepheus. She gave him a (playful) shove for that. On the flip side, Draco has sung China Girl by David Bowie to Mia on more than one occasion.
Lucas would bust out some sweet DCMC for the object of his affection, quite possibly Luna Lovegood. He could even get their bassist to back him up. Tonda Gossa! Or, if there are any older beats around, he could sing something by the Runaway Five or maybe Venus.
To Dani, obviously. He'd probably sing whatever's the latest song he's trying to master on guitar, if it happened to be a love song, although he informs me that a song from his world called "High-Density Woman" rocks pretty hard.

Really, it depends a lot on the situation. The target would be Sheba, but the song... I could definitely see "Believe" (from the Scarlet Pimmpernel musical, but it doesn't appear to be on Youtube), and he definitely likes "At the Beginning" and "Strangers Like Me". There are, indeed, several possibilities.
