Songs About Believers

I hadn’t planned on a follow-up post to yesterday’s Songs About Heathens – it just sort of came about naturally. For what it’s worth, I found twice as many good “Believer” songs as “Heathen” ones. And one group here had two hit songs with that word in their titles. Go figure! Enjoy!  ~  JH

Songs About Drugs

It's not what you think... Yes, these songs all include either the word "Drug" or "Drugs" in their titles, but most of the drugs in question are anything but illegal nor are they the kind that are likely to be abused. Many of the songs compare the addictive qualities of someone's love as like unto a drug. Others still are actually referring to drugs of abuse but in a negative, say-no-to-them kind of way. Enjoy?  ~  JH

"Buy" & "Sell" Songs

Since I was nice enough to limit the songs here to a number that would fit all into one post, the least you can do now is listen to them. And maybe enjoy?  ~  JH

1)  The Beatles  ~  "Can't Buy Me Love"

2)  Sponge  ~  "Wax Ecstatic (To Sell Angelina)"

3)  Kenny Rogers  ~  "Buy Me A Rose"

4)  Megadeth  ~  "Peace Sells"  (Who else do you know who'd follow up a Kenny Rogers song with one by Megadeth? No one? I didn't think so.)

6)  Reel Big Fish  ~  "Sell Out"

7)  McAlister Kemp  ~  "It Don't Buy You Love"

8)  Josh Altman  ~  "I Sell The Dream"  (Of course, this song is ridiculous – but it's supposed to be! It's a joke song whose sole purpose is to donate the proceeds to charity. So don't hate too much!)
