“Back To” Songs

Where I live, today is "Back To School" Day. Since most students and all teachers would probably just as soon not celebrate that fact, here's a collection of "Back To" Songs which have absolutely nothing to do with school. Herein, you'll find the artists going back to "me," "you," "the start," "Manhattan," "God," "Earth," and "the '80s," just to name a few. So don't stress out about school. Enjoy these songs instead (or perhaps in addition to)!  ~  JH
