"Ugly" Songs


Well, I was able to scrounge up more than enough songs to make my previous blog entry ("Pretty" Songs) into an "Opposites" post after all. A natural counterpart to those, this is a collection of songs with "Ugly" in their titles. Most of the songs aren't ugly, in the purest sense of the word. (Although some might be.) Enjoy?  ~  JH


BLOGGER'S NOTE:  Each of these songs is unique (no repeats within the post), even though many of them have the same, one-word title of "Ugly."



1)  Sugababes   ~ "Ugly"




2)  The White Stripes  ~  "As Ugly As I Seem"




3)  Meg & Dia  ~  "My Ugly Mouth"




4)  Living Colour  ~  "Love Rears Its Ugly Head"




5)  Avery *Sunshine  ~  "Ugly  Part Of Me"




6)  Sevendust  ~  "Ugly"




7)  LeeLee  ~  "Ugly"

"Pretty" Songs

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
