NEW! - Crawling Back to You - Backstreet Boys
Thanks to a certain Sweet Valley forum (which will appear very soon on my links page!), this song just screams "Todd Wilkins" whenever I play it now...which is A LOT! Thanks for this great song!

Everybody knows that I was such a fool to ever let go of you
Baby I was wrong
Yeah I know I said we'd be better off alone
It was time that we moved on
I know I broke your heart, I didn't mean to break your heart
But baby here I am

[Chorous]
Banging on your front door
My pride spilled on the floor
My hands and knees are bruised and I'm crawling back to you
Begging for a second chance
Are you gonna let me in?
I was running from the truth and now I'm crawling back to you

I know you're in there and you can make me wait
But I'm not gonna wait
It's the least that I can do, just to tell you face to face
I was lying to myself, now I'm dying in this hell
Girl I know you're mad, I can't blame you for being mad
But baby here I am

[Chorous]

If you could see these tears I'm crying
Touch these hands that can't stop shaking
Hear my heart that's barely beating
You will see a different man
But baby here I am

I'll Never Break Your Heart - Backstreet Boys
This song reminds me of the situation in Sweet Valley University #28 Elizabeth's Heartbreak, when she is still so confused over Tom, and not able to let go yet. Todd spends the book trying to help her move on, like in this song!

From the first day
That I saw your smiling face
Honey, I knew that we would
Be together forever
Ooh when I asked you out
You said no but I found out
Darling that you'd been hurt
You felt like you'd never love again
I deserve a try honey just once
Give me a chance and I'll prove this all wrong
You walked in, you were so quick to judge
But honey he' s nothing like me

Chorus:
I'll never break your heart
I'll never make you cry
I'd rather die than live without you
I'll give you all of me
Honey, that's no lie

I believe In Us - Warren Wiebe (Camp soundtrack)
This song also reminds me of Sweet Valley University #27 - #29, as well as Elizabeth and Todd's relationship in general, and the connection they share, that always brings them back together!

There are moments when I worry,
When the waters rise and the currents take you
There's a life line stretched between us,
Between your heart and mine
Across all space and time and that never dies

But I know you're afraid that love wont last
Say what you will, I’ve got all the time you need
There's a dream and a chance, Baby that's we have
Say that you will, It will always be enough if you believe in us

Wouldn't It Be Nice - The Beach Boys
Obviously! Fans of Sweet Valley High #102 Almost Married will not be able to help but think of Elizabeth and Todd whenever this song comes on!

Wouldnt it be nice if we were older
Then we wouldnt have to wait so long
And wouldnt it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong

Swear It Again - Westlife
This entire song just reminds me of how Todd feels about Elizabeth, and no matter how many times they break up, they always find each other again.

Just look around / And all of the people that we used to know
Have just given up, they wanna let it go / But we're still trying
So you should know this love we share was never made to die
I'm glad we're on this one way street just you and I

Chorus:
I'm never gonna say goodbye / Cos I never wanna see you cry
I swore to you my love would remain / And I swear it all over again and I
I'm never gonna treat you bad / Cos I never wanna see you sad
I swore to share your joy and your pain / And I swear it all over again

Some people say / That everything has got its place in time
Even the day must give way to the night / But I'm not buying
Cos in your eyes / I see a love that burns eternally
And if you see how beautiful you are to me / You'll know I'm not lying

Sure there'll be times we wanna say goodbye / But even if we try
There are some things in this life won't be denied

Rest of My Life - Sweet Valley High Soundtrack
Even though it was never played during an Elizabeth and Todd scene, in Sweet Valley High, this song from the official soundtrack just screams Elizabeth and Todd!

I look at you, you say nothing
But I can feel, your heart

And I never told you, I build my dreams around you
I’ll always love you, for the rest of my life

I’ve always know, I could trust you
With everything in my heart

But I never told you, I build my dreams around you
I’ll always love you, for the rest of my life

And I never told you, I build me dreams around you
I’ll always love you, for the rest of my life
For the rest of my life, my life

Key to My Life - Boyzone
Another song that reminds me of Todd when he is trying to win Elizabeth back in Sweet Valley University. He knows what he did (namely, in #1 College Girls) and blames himself completely; he just hopes Elizabeth can forgive him.

Year after year, was blaming myself (blaming myself...)
For what I'd done, just thought of myself
I know that you'll understand (you'll understand...)
This was all my own fault, don't go away..

And I never gave up hope when things got me down
But I just bit on my lip and my face began to frown
Cos that was just my pride and I've nothing left to hide
And now the way is clear and all I want to say is...

All of my life the doors have been closed now
And all of my dreams have been locked up inside
But you came along and captured my heart, girl
You're the key to my life

All to Myself - Sweet Valley High Soundtrack
I think this song is amazing, and so well suited to Elizabeth and Todd, at times when they are in completely mad situations and just want to forget about the rest of the entire world.

To be alone with you, is all I want today
I’ve had enough of everyone, everyone but you
I just want you all to myself

The world is at my door, but you are on my mind, my mind
Don’t wanna be with anyone, anyone but you
I just want you all to myself

I want the world to go away, leave you behind
I just want you all to myself
All to myself, all to myself
