Songs About "Them"

I told you I probably wouldn't be able to resist compiling a Songs About 'Them'" post after previously posting "Songs About 'Us'," and I was right. This time, however, there weren't nearly as many good songs to choose from. The result, I believe, is quality over quantity. But I'll let you be the judge of that. Enjoy!  ~  JH

2)  Siouxsie And The Banshees  ~  "Kiss Them For Me"

3)  Alice In Chains  ~  "Them Bones"

4)  Sting  ~  "If You Love Somebody, Set Them Free"

5)  Billie Holliday ft. Sy Oliver & His Orchestra  ~  "Them There Eyes"

6)  Kate Bush  ~  "Them Heavy People"

7)  Andy Griffith ft. The Darlings  ~  "Boil Them Cabbage Down"

8)  Father MC  ~   "Treat Them Like They Want To Be Treated"

13)  Sufjan Stevens  ~  "Ring Them Bells"

14)  iwrestledabearonce  ~  "You Know That Ain't Them Dogs' Real Voices"  (Screamo is not the type of music I typically go for – not at all, actually – but both the name of this band and the song title were far too bizarre not to include here. Don't listen if you don't want to.)

15)  JJ Weeks Band  ~  "Let Them See You"
