"Grey" Songs

Here we have a lovely collection of songs about the color "Grey" (or "Gray," depending on whom you ask). Why, you might ask?

"32" Songs

As of today, my wife is 32 weeks pregnant with our daughter. So here's a collection of songs with the number "32" (or "Thirty-Two") in their titles or somewhere in their lyrics. I've finally reached the point where I can no longer find enough suitable songs to match the number of weeks, and that's okay. That I made it this far is pretty amazing, if I do say so myself. Enjoy!  ~  JH



1)  Alana Davis  ~  "32 Flavors"  (An absolutely superb cover of Ani DiFranco's hit song.)




2)  Genesis  ~  "The Chamber Of 32 Doors"




3)  "Weird" Al Yankovic  ~  "It's All About The Pentiums"




4)  Trisha Yearwood  ~  "Everybody Knows"




5)  Sum 41  ~  "What We're All About"




6)  Carpark North ft. Stine Bramsen  ~  "32"




7)  Lecrae ft. No Malice  ~  "Darkest Hour"




8)  SHeDAISY ~   "Lucky 4 You (Tonight I'm Just Me)"




9)  Ringo Starr  ~  "I'm The Greatest"




10)  Sheryl Crow  ~  "Home"




11)  Spin Doctors  ~  "Shinbone Alley" / "More Than She Knows"




12)  Cursive  ~  "Drunken Birds"




13)  No Secrets  ~  "That's What Girls Do"




14)  Alestorm  ~  "Death Throes Of The Terrorsquid"




15)  Bruce Hornsby  ~  "Stander On The Mountain"




16)  Bruce Springsteen  ~  "Murder Incorporated"




17)  Fitz And The Tantrums  ~  "Tell Me What Ya Here For"




18)  Ani DiFranco  ~  "32 Flavors"  (Ani's original song...which is different enough from Alana's version to merit its inclusion here.)
