"Soft" & "Loud" Songs

The title of this post in no way indicates the loudness or softness of the songs. Rather, it indicates that each song in the collection has either the word "Soft" or "Loud" (or some derivative) in its title. In other words, it's another "Opposites" music post. Simple as that. Enjoy?  ~  JH
