17 Songs With "17" In The Title

And now for something completely different! Well, sort of different. It's still a bunch of songs linked together by a singular commonality – in this case, the fact that the number "17" (or its written form, "Seventeen") is contained within the title of each of these 17 songs. What makes this post somewhat different is that, in contrast with recent posts on this blog, it is neither a collection of popular songs from a certain year nor is it an "Opposites" music post. Otherwise, it's the same. Enjoy?  ~  JH
