“Guest” & “Host” Songs

I expected this post to include a lot more well-known songs than it actually does, but I was surprised to find that most of the "Guest" and "Host" titled songs out there – while thoroughly engaging in their own right – are by largely unknown artists. But the Beauty And The Beast song is here, so really what else do you need to know? Click, listen, and enjoy!  ~  JH



1)  Beauty And The Beast Cast  ~  “Be Our Guest”




2)  Taylor Henderson  ~  “Host Of Angels”




3)  Marillion  ~  “The Uninvited Guest”




4)  Timber Timbre  ~  “Demon Host”




5)  Tristan Prettyman  ~  “Guest Check”  (I don't know about "Pretty man," but SHE sure has a pretty voice!)




6)  The Crocketts  ~  “Host”




7)   The Mountain Goats  ~  “House Guest”




8)  I’m The Hug  ~  “Perfect Host”




9)  Admiral Fallow  ~  “Guest Of The Government”




10)  Buckethead  ~  “Ghost Host”  (Yes, he wears a KFC-style chicken bucket on his head when he plays. Go figure! But he's an excellent guitarist, so who cares?)




11)  Leonard Cohen  ~  “The Guests”  (This gravel-voiced guy is one of the best lyricists/songwriters of all time. If you haven't heard of him, you should work on that right now.)




12)  Porter  ~  “Host Of A Ghost”




13)  Ásgeir  ~  “Summer Guest”




14)  Palm Reader  ~  “Noble Host”




15)  King Diamond  ~  “The Invisible Guests”
