Songs About Euphoria

Euphoria is defined as "a feeling or state of intense excitement and happiness." Apparently, some people feel this from time to time. And they've written songs about it. Lots of songs, as it turns out. Here's part 1 of 2. The follow-up will follow almost immediately. Enjoy!  ~  JH

“Hardly” Songs

These are "Hardly" Songs. Which is not to say that they hardly qualify as songs. In fact, they're quite good. The "Hardly" in question appears in the title of each, which is the single unifying theme of the songs. Otherwise, they're all completely unrelated. But I repeat myself... Enjoy! ~ JH
