Here's a small collection of songs with some form of the word "Pump" in their titles. Herein you'll be invited to pump up the jam, the volume, the space suit, and your kicks, to name a few. You'll also have the opportunity to pump blood, your fist, your stereo, and your heart. So what are you waiting for? Enjoy! ~ JH
No, this is not a comprehensive collection consisting of songs featuring the titles of each and every element in the periodic table. That would be crazypants and also pert-near impossible. (I checked.) It is, however, a smattering of songs, each of which features one of the more common elements in its title. Why? Because I said so, that's why. Enjoy! ~ JH
Hey, check these out! Two or more different songs with the same title! What a novel concept! (Thus the "Vol. 16" notation above.) Just enjoy 'em, okay? ~ JH
Here's yet another music post born out of my desire to include a particular song and having no other good reason to do so. So I made something up. As it will quickly become obvious, all the bands represented here have a word (be it a verb, noun, or preposition), then the word "the", and another word in their names. For example, Foster The People, Minus The Bear, Cage The Elephant, etc. Apparently, this particular band-naming technique has been going on for quite some time yet has become more and more prevalent in recent years – so I had oodles of bands to choose from. These are the ones that made the cut. Enjoy? ~ JH
1) Foster The People ~ "Coming Of Age"
2) Mott The Hoople ~ "All The Young Dudes"

13) We Are The Fallen ~ "Bury Me Alive" (OK, so this one doesn't technically fit the theme [since both a subject and verb precede the "the"], but this post was short on female-fronted bands and this was a good song, so there ya go!)
