"Teach" & "Learn" Songs

Well, I spared you the misery of having to slog through two separate posts of songs for one "Opposites" theme, a collection of songs with the words "Teach" and "Learn" in their titles. (You're welcome!) One post means fewer overall songs, and fewer songs means a higher quality of songs that are included. In theory, at least. Enjoy?  ~  JH
