I've seen lots of people wearing gloves and masks in public lately. Wonder what's up with that? *shrugs* Anyway, after taking over a month off from blogging, Songs About Gloves & Masks seemed like a good idea for a post. So here it is...and there will be another. Enjoy! ~ JH 1) Michael Jackson ~ "Behind The Mask"
We've been told that social distancing is something we should be practicing during this pandemic. I propose that while we do so, we should listen to a bunch of songs bearing either the word "Social" or "Distance" in their titles (nobody writes songs with "Distancing" in the title). I did, and I enjoyed them. I think you will as well!~JH

2) Cake ~ "The Distance"
3) Saga ~ "Social Orphan"
4) Christina Perri ft. Jason Mraz ~ "Distance"
5) Pete Yorn ~ "Social Development Dance"
6) Live ~ "The Distance"
7) Soul Asylum ~ "Social Butterfly"
8) Dwight Yoakam ~ "The Distance Between You And Me"
9) Zero 7 ~ "This Fine Social Scene"
10) Bette Midler ~ "From A Distance"
11) Dodie Clark ~ "Social Dance"
12) Brandy ~ "Long Distance"
13) Smallpools ~ "Social"
14) Kimbra ~ "Hi-Def Distance Romance"

You CANNOT catch the Coronavirus by checking out this blog! But you can hear a bunch of catchy tunes with the word "Contagious" in their titles to pass the time away while you self-quarantine (if applicable) or pretend to work (if applicable). And don't worry (or worry, if applicable) – there'll be plenty more posts of this nature this week. You're welcome (or I'm sorry). Enjoy! (Or don't!)~JH
