“Calm” Songs

I was working on this post during the most recent hurricane, since we never ended up losing power. Wishful thinking about calmer times, I suppose.

Yours, Mine, & Ours Songs, Vol. 3: "Ours"

In this third and final installment of the miniseries, we have a decidedly smaller collection of songs with "Ours" in their titles. For one thing, there were fewer songs to choose from that fit the criteria. For another, many of the ones I did find I didn't like or were otherwise inappropriate. So I chose quality over quantity. There are still a few rather-unknown artists here, but their songs are included because they're good not because they're famous. Enjoy?  ~  JH

1)  Taylor Swift  ~  "Ours"

2)  Elbow  ~  "Friend Of Ours"

3)  Jason Mraz  ~  "(This Movie Is) Rated Ours"  (Yes, actually, I did realize that there was a Jason Mraz song in each entry of this series. Not a coincidence.)

4)  The Joy Formidable  ~  "This Ladder Is Ours"

5)  Aloe Blacc  ~  "Hello World (The World Is Ours)"

6)  Richard Hawley  ~  "Tonight The Streets Are Ours"

7)  Emma Hewitt  ~  "These Days Are Ours"

8)  Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott  ~  "When It Was Ours"

9)  JUCE  ~  "(H)ours"

10)  Mayer Hawthorne  ~  "The Stars Are Ours"

11)  The Naked And Famous  ~  "Hearts Like Ours"

12)  Moving Units  ~  "The World Is Ours"

13)  Kina Grannis  ~  "Ours To Keep"

14)  Leilani Wolfgramm  ~  "Love Is Ours"

15)  Connie Smith  ~  "Hearts Like Ours"

Songs By Awesome Aussie Female Singers, Vol. 2

As I mentioned yesterday, I've always had a strong affinity for Australian female singers. Indeed, many of my all-time favorite female singers hail from Down Under. Yesterday, I posted 20 songs by well-known and lesser-known Aussie ladies. But those weren't the only ones I wanted to post. So here's another 20. (There won't be a Volume 3.) Hope you'll enjoy these as much as or more than yesterday's batch.  ~  JH
