"She," "Her," & "Hers" Songs, Vol. 1


Okay, here’s part 1 of 2 in the ongoing Personal Pronouns series, these sets featuring songs with the word “She,” “Her,” or “Hers” in their titles. With the “They,” “Them,” & “Their” Songs I limited selections to songs that *began* with one of those words. For the most part, I have done the same here, with the exception of the “Hers” songs. There is a very limited number of songs beginning with “Hers,” so my criteria in these sets is that the word “Hers” appears *somewhere* in the titles. Which makes my life easier and ensures that you don’t have to endure some really obscure (and probably crappy) songs just so I could fill up a post. Long story short, here are the songs. Oh yeah…enjoy!  ~  JH
