"Block" & "Charge" Songs

Even though it really isn't my favorite sport, I sorta miss watching basketball games. I particularly enjoy seeing people getting fouled. I dunno why. These songs are inspired by my slight affinity for basketball and two things that happen a lot in any given game: "Blocks" and "Charges." Enjoy!  ~  JH

"Here With Me" Songs

I know this seems like a very specific theme for a post, but that's intentional. As I was listening to a new song called "Here With Me" recently, it occurred to me that there have been quite a few memorable songs by that very title (or some minor variation of it). So, naturally, I decided it would be an interesting exercise to find and gather them all in one place. And the results are anything but disappointing. I'm sure you will...enjoy!  ~  JH
