Songs About Affairs

I know what you're thinking, and it's NOT what I'm thinking! These songs are NOT about having an affair on one's spouse. They're mostly about innocent love affairs between people who have every right to be involved with each other. So chill out, and enjoy!  ~  JH

Songs About Being Tied Up

"Tied up" can mean a number of things. It can mean that you're occupied and unable to do whatever it is whoever it is wants you to do. It can mean a metaphorical entanglement in a situation or with a specific person. It can also mean being physically bound in some way. These songs offer a balanced mix of all three of these meanings, and maybe even a couple more. Who knows? Enjoy!  ~  JH
