Boy, did I have a lot of songs to choose from with this topic! The number of songs with the word "Yourself" in their titles is staggering. Here are but a few of them. There'll be one more round of these next week, but that's all. Only the best for you, Dear Listener. Enjoy! ~ JH
1) Justin Bieber ~ “Love Yourself” (I know, I know...I'd pretty much sworn off posting any more Bieber songs since he's become such a joke. But I accidentally starting liking this song quite a bit BEFORE finding out Justin was its singer. So it was either I leave off an obviously good song, or own that junk and put it front and center. I chose the latter. On the plus side, Biebs does NOT appear in the video at all, so there's that.)
2) David Bowie ~ “Hang Onto Yourself”
3) Jess Glynne ~ “Don’t Be So Hard On Yourself”
4) Daft Punk ft. Pharrell Williams & Nile Rodgers ~ “Lose Yourself To Dance”

13) Tower Of Power ~ “Knock Yourself Out”
14) Jack Garratt ~ “Surprise Yourself” (Why haven’t I heard of this guy before now? Because he’s uh…mazing!)
15) Christina Grimmie ~ “Get Yourself Together” (Still hard to believe this talented young lady is gone. Too soon, too soon. #RIPChristina)
16) Elvis Presley ~ “Let Yourself Go”
17) Kaleo ~ “Save Yourself” (Amazing live performance…from an ICEBERG! You can’t get much cooler than that! Pun probably intended.)
18) Diana Krall ~ “Pick Yourself Up”
19) Georgia Satellites ~ “Keep Your Hands To Yourself”
20) Jackie Chan ~ “Believe In Yourself” (My word, that was beautiful! Wonder what he was singing about? And who knew he even could?)
