Songs About "Something," Vol. 1

So I had this not-terribly-earthshaking idea to compile and post a collection of songs with the word "Something" in the title. Trouble is, I found too many good ones I wanted to include. Too many for one post, at least. So here's a bunch of songs about "Something," and it's part 1 of 2. Enjoy?  ~  JH

Songs By Guys Named Matthew, Matt, And Mat (All Christian Artists)

I know, I know, I just did a random-collection-of-songs-by-people-with-the-same-first-name post yesterday. But this one's different! See, this one is composed entirely of Christian artists. Enjoy!  ~  JH

(NOTE:  Singers with a "*" by their names are professing Christians who sing, but they don't make Christian music, per sé. [Kinda like who I'm a Christian who blogs, but this isn't specifically a Christian blog.] So don't look for a deep theological meaning in those particular songs, because there probably isn't one to be found.)



1)  Matt Redman  ~  "10,000 Reasons (Bless The Lord)"

2)  Matt Maher  ~   "Rise Up"

3)  Matthew West  ~  "My Own Little World"

4)  Matthew Smith  ~  "Lord Jesus, Comfort Me"

5)  Mat Kearney*  ~  "Nothing Left To Lose"
