Songs By Artists With Presidential Names, Vol. 1

I get a lot of dumb ideas, and sometimes I blog about them. The other day, I wondered if I could find a singer or band whose name included the surname of each of our 44 Presidents. And, as it turns out, I could! Here's the first 22 of them. If enough people are interested to view this post, I'll post the other half this afternoon. If not, I'll post it tomorrow. (You see, you can't really escape it.) Enjoy!  ~  JH

Songs With "Lead" In The Title

So here's the first part of a two-part "Opposites" music post I've put together – yes, I'm still doing those, and no, I'll probably never stop. First up, a group of songs with "Lead" in the title. Next time, I'll feature songs with "Follow" in the title. Due to the fact that the word "Lead" is involved here, it shouldn't be that big a surprise that a disproportionately large number of Christian songs will be included within. So know that going into it, if that's something that matters to you. But please understand that I don't like to limit myself to a certain style or genre in these posts – so not ALL of the songs included here are Christian. Enjoy!  ~  JH
