Shape-ly Music: Songs About Triangles


Well, this is the last planned "Songs About Shapes" post in the series, unless I change my mind later. Although a cursory search lets me know that most of the other shapes haven't had nearly as many good songs written about them as Squares, Circles, and Triangles have. So this might be it. Enjoy!  ~  JH

2)  Weezer  ~  "Pink Triangle"

5)  Logistics  ~  "Triangles"

8)  Martial Solal ft. Daniel Humair & Jean-François Jenny-Clark  ~  "Triangle"




9)  Echosmith  ~  "Bizarre Love Triangle"




10)  Colours In The Street  ~  "Triangle"

BONUS TRACK:  Frente!  ~  "Bizarre Love Triangle"  (This, to me, is the iconic version of this song, even though New Order [not featured here] was the original artist and up-and-coming band Echosmith – song #9 above – did an outstanding cover of it. But I couldn't NOT include Frente! here.)
