"Young" & "Old" Songs

Here's something new – well, not really. It's another "Opposites" music post. But I've never done these particular opposites before, so there ya go. Sorry, One Direction fans – you won't find the "Live While We're Young" video here. Mainly because the song, despite the fact that it has more than 250 million views on YouTube, is fairly horrible. In this blogger's opinion, at least. Hopefully you'll enjoy the good songs that are collected here, though.  ~  JH

"Happy" & "Sad" Songs

Yep, I've still got a few more "Opposites" music posts to get out of my system. At the very least, there's this one, another one that's ready to go, and one more I'm working on right now. You'll find a pretty good mix of songs here. I'll bet you're familiar with a few of them. You may even know all the words to one or two. So go ahead, hear 'em while they're hot, since I slaved over 'em for so long. Or something like that.  ~  JH
