You CANNOT catch the Coronavirus by checking out this blog! But you can hear a bunch of catchy tunes with the word "Contagious" in their titles to pass the time away while you self-quarantine (if applicable) or pretend to work (if applicable). And don't worry (or worry, if applicable) – there'll be plenty more posts of this nature this week. You're welcome (or I'm sorry). Enjoy! (Or don't!)~JH
It's almost that time of year again! He's making his lists, and he's checking them twice – he's gonna find out who's "Naughty" or "Nice." Which list are YOU on? Enjoy! ~ JH

When you've done as many music posts as I have over the past few years, it can be difficult to come up with new and exciting ideas. But not today! Today, I have for you a collection of Songs About Getting Shot. And that's anything BUT boring! Umm...enjoy? ~ JH
1) Bon Jovi ~ “Shot Through The Heart” (Ironically, Bon Jovi's "You Give Love A Bad Name" – which is NOT in this group of songs – was the inspiration for this post. Turns out they have ANOTHER song with the iconic "Shot Through The Heart" lyric in it, this one in its title. Go figure!)
