It doesn't get any more random than this! As advertised, the following is a collection of songs by up-and-coming singers who just happen to turn 20 years old at some point during this year. Enjoy? ~ JH
Part five in a ridiculously conceived but fairly rewarding miniseries of posts, this final entry features songs with "All Around," "Every Direction," and "Everywhere" in the titles. Lame, I know, but I felt like doing it, so there! That being said, there are only 10 songs in this collection. (I restrained myself. For a change.) Enjoy! ~ JH
We now return to our regularly scheduled music post miniseries. Part four of five, this particular collection includes a wide variety of songs linked only by the fact that they all contain the word "Right" in their titles. There are plenty of well-known artists here, so you shouldn't "leave hungry," so to speak. You're likely to find two or three songs you already know. Or maybe you won't, if music's not really your thing. Anyway, enjoy! ~ JH
