Songs By Awesome Aussie Female Singers, Vol. 1

For whatever reason, I've always had a strong affinity for Australian female singers. In fact, many of my favorite female singers of all time hail from Down Under. Knowing that, it shouldn't be much of a surprise that this post now exists, nor should it be altogether shocking that I couldn't fit all the good songs/singers into just one post. So tomorrow I'll share another 20 of them. Hope you'll enjoy these as much as I do!  ~  JH

12 Songs For The Signs Of The Zodiac

Let me preface this post by stating that I put no credence whatsoever in astrology or astrological signs. I just think the names of the signs sound pretty cool, and I figured someone somewhere had written a song about each of them, or at least had written songs with the signs in the titles. And I was right. And here they are… Enjoy!  ~  JH
