"Soft" & "Loud" Songs


The title of this post in no way indicates the loudness or softness of the songs. Rather, it indicates that each song in the collection has either the word "Soft" or "Loud" (or some derivative) in its title. In other words, it's another "Opposites" music post. Simple as that. Enjoy?  ~  JH



1)  The Fugees  ~  "Killing Me Softly"




2)  Hawk Nelson  ~  "Live Life Loud"




3)  Leah Dizon  ~  "Softly"  (If you can't understand the lyrics, don't worry – you're not going crazy – the whole thing's sung in Japanese!)




4)  Alpha Rev  ~  "Sing Loud"




5)  Andy Williams  ~  "Softly, As I Leave You"




6)  Underoath  ~  "Too Bright To See, Too Loud To Hear"
