Here's the final entry in my 7-part series of Songs With Colors In The Title. Obviously, these songs all contain the word "White" in their titles. There're quite a few really good songs here...and a coupla scary ones. I'll let you decide which are which. Enjoy! ~ JH
Here's the first entry in what will be a whopping 7-part series. This is another one recently suggested by my friend, Daniel Entzminger. The theme – as if it isn't obvious – is songs with colors in the titles. Some colors – such as black, white, blue, red, and green – will get their own posts, while others with fewer qualifying songs will be lumped together as these are here. Contrary to how it would appear, I didn't get crazily in-depth with the variety of colors – just the basic ones that any child could name, if prompted. Hope you enjoy them! ~ JH

Here's a collection of "Pretty" songs. Well, not all of them are pretty. (Most are.) But they do all have the word "Pretty" in their titles. If I can scrounge up enough songs with "Ugly" in the title, this will end up being the first part of an "Opposites" music post. If not, then this will just be a standalone. You'll have to wait and see. Enjoy? ~ JH

Yes, this is another "Opposites" music post. And yes, I know I do these too often. And yes, I know that I should mix it up a bit more and do different themes. But I don't always do what I know that I should. That being said, "Day" and "Night" songs (the follow-up to this post) are a dime a dozen, so I tried to limit the results somehow. My challenge was to post good songs that fit the criteria, but ones that I had never posted before on either this blog or The Plural Of Hyena. That's a heckuva lot of music posts and a heckuva lot of songs. But NONE of these are repeats. I done good! Enjoy? ~ JH
