Things These Artists Want, Vol. 1

Each of the artists in this collection seems to "want" something. Some of them want "to hold your hand," others want "it all," and still others "wanna dance with somebody." And that's only the beginning! Once I got into the subject, I realized there were tons of these songs and knew this would be a multi-parter. In fact, this is Vol. 1 of 4. Ready...set...enjoy!  ~  JH
