"She" & "Herself" Songs

What do you do when you've already posted far too many "She," "Her," and "Hers" Songs, but you still have a lot of good "She" songs left over? Well, if you're me (and, thank heavens, you're not!), you recall a female personal pronoun you haven't explored yet – "Herself" – and you lump it together with the rest of your "She" songs and call it a postscript to the previous two-part post. And here it is... Enjoy?  ~  JH

1)  Maroon 5  ~  "She Will Be Loved"
