I couldn't really do a "Primary" Songs post without following it up with a "Secondary" post, could I? But don't hold your breath waiting for a set of "Tertiary" songs. Nobody writes good "Tertiary" songs anymore. Enjoy? ~ JH 1) Mark Knopfler ~ "Secondary Waltz"
2) Brand New ~ "Secondary"
3) Quilt ~ "Secondary Swan"
4) The Michael Schenker Group ~ "Secondary Motion"
5) [title of show] Cast ~ "Secondary Characters"
6) Neuropa ~ "Secondary You"
7) Sara Greer ft. Ross Childress ~ "Secondary Woman"
Here's a bunch of songs with the word "Wherever" in their titles. Because there were lots of good ones to choose from, that's why. Stay tuned, as this might turn out to be a series, with future installations of "Whoever," "Whatever," "Whenever," and "However" songs. Haven't decided yet. Either way...enjoy! ~ JH

This week, I'll take a break from the "Popular Songs Of..." posts to regale you with a variety of posts featuring songs about extremely random things. Not that the songs contained within are anything to balk at – they're really good, for the most part – but the subjects I chose for song collections are, well, "interesting." For example: Songs About Gravy. Dig in...and enjoy! ~ JH
