More “Forbidden” Songs

Every now and then, I have what I think is an original idea for a music post, then I go back into my “vault” of old posts and realize I’ve already done that topic before. Such is the case with this post, which features songs with the word “Forbidden” in their titles. I originally did a “Forbidden” Songs post over three years ago. However, upon recent reflection, I realized that post was comprised entirely of songs by artists that no one – myself included! – had ever heard of before. I knew I could do better. And so I did. Enjoy!  ~  JH
