Songs With "Keep" In The Title

One might automatically think that this would be the first part of a two-parter in my never-ending series of "Opposites" music posts. However, that would not be the case. For one thing, I've done way too many "Opposites" posts of late anyway. Secondly, I couldn't think of a word that was a natural opposite to the word "Keep." But there were still lots of "Keep" songs I wanted to post. So here they are… Enjoy?  ~  JH

1)  2Pac  ~  "Keep Ya Head Up"

2)  Zac Brown Band  ~  Keep Me In Mind"

3)  Bon Jovi  ~  "Keep The Faith"

4)  The Human League  ~  "(Keep Feeling) Fascination"  (This man is wearing a lot of makeup. Hmm...)

5)  Kelly Rowland  ~  "Keep It Between Us"

6)  Sugarland  ~  "Keep You"

7)  Weezer  ~  "Keep Fishin'"  (Featuring The Muppets, for those of you who like Muppets – of which I am one.)

8)  Billy Joel  ~  "Keeping The Faith"

9)  Soul II Soul  ~  "Keep On Movin'"

10)  Reba McEntire  ~  "I Keep On Lovin' You"

11)  Needtobreathe  ~  "Keep Your Eyes Open"

12)  Wild Belle  ~  "Keep You"

13)  Curtis Harding  ~  "Keep On Shining"  (This song would be right at home with the Motown songs of old. But it's a relatively recent song.)

14)  Ricky Van Shelton  ~  "Keep It Between The Lines"  (Whatever happened to this guy? He was one of the better country singers in the '80s and '90s.)

15)  Rival Sons  ~  "Keep On Swinging"

16)  Julia Child  ~  "Keep On Cooking"  (What will they think of next?)

17)  Travie McCoy ft. Brendon Urie  ~  "Keep On Keeping On"

18)  Eddie Vedder  ~  "Can't Keep"

19)  Garbage  ~  "The Trick Is To Keep Breathing"

20)  REO Speedwagon  ~  "Keep On Loving You"  (This is one of the stupidest story lines for a music video that I've ever seen. Especially considering that the song itself isn't that bad.)

21)  Tony Bennett & Aretha Franklin  ~  "How Do You Keep The Music Playing?"  (Wow, what a duet! This is magical!)

22)  Michael McDonald  ~  "I Keep Forgettin'"  ("I just hit the east side of the LBC, on a mission tryin' to find Mr. Warren G"...Oh wait, that's a different song altogether. Sampled from this song, but not this song. Not by a long shot.)

23)  American Authors  ~  "Keep Me Dreaming"

24)  Annie Lennox  ~  "Keep Young And Beautiful"

25)  Enya  ~  "How Can I Keep From Singing?"  (That's a good question, Enya. When I figure that out, I'll let you know!)
