Periodic Table Of The Elements Songs

No, this is not a comprehensive collection consisting of songs featuring the titles of each and every element in the periodic table. That would be crazypants and also pert-near impossible. (I checked.) It is, however, a smattering of songs, each of which features one of the more common elements in its title. Why? Because I said so, that's why. Enjoy!  ~  JH

Many of these are lovely if lesser-known songs by well-known artists, while others are delightful tunes by not-so-notable artists. All of them are hidden gems – well…hidden no more, I suppose.
