"33" Songs

Well, whaddyaknow! As it turns out, there are a ton of songs with the number "33" (or "Thirty-Three") in their titles or somewhere in their lyrics. Accordingly, I was able to gather 33 songs here in honor of the fact that my wife is 33 weeks pregnant with our daughter today. Enjoy it, okay?  ~  JH



1)  Coheed and Cambria  ~  "33"




2)  Five For Fighting  ~  "100 Years"




3)  The Gaslight Anthem  ~  "Blue Jeans And White T-Shirts"

5)  Demon Hunter  ~  "Not Ready To Die"




6)  Sanctus Real  ~  "33"




7)  Counting Crows  ~  "All My Friends"




8)  Miranda Lambert  ~  "What About Georgia?"




9)  Iron & Wine  ~  "Peng! 33"




10)  Blue October  ~  "Hate Me"




11)  Flame ft. Lecrae & John Reilly  ~  "Joyful Noise"  (Does that opening riff sound familiar? It probably should. Katy Perry allegedly "hijacked" it without permission and tweaked it a bit for her hit song, "Dark Horse." There's even a lawsuit over this – look it up.)




12)  G. Hannelius  ~  "4:45"




13)  Kris Kristofferson  ~  "The Pilgrim, Chapter 33"

15)  J. Moss  ~  "Operator"




16)  Little Big Town  ~  "Vapor"

18)  Petra  ~  "Enter In"




19)  John Cage  ~  "4'33""  (This is the dumbest "music" I've ever [not] heard in my entire life. And I've heard a lot.)




20)  The Pretenders  ~  "Middle Of The Road"




21)  Dwight Yoakam  ~  "Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues"
