Songs By Bands With Four-Letter Names, Vol. 1

And now we begin a series of posts that you helped me come up with last week. (You know who you are, I don't need to tag you all.) Volume 1 consists of 20 songs by bands with four letters in their names. No more, no less. If your favorite band/artist didn't make this list, just wait. Volume 2 is on the way. If you submitted a 4-letter solo artist (not a band), those will be in a separate post altogether – but it's coming too! So, be patient…and enjoy!  ~  JH
