"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

"Hot" & "Cold" Songs

Because I seem to be on an "opposites" kick when it comes to music posts, here's another one. Enjoy? ~  JH




1)  Betty White ft. Luciana  ~  "I'm Still Hot"  (She still is, too...even at 91 years old!)



2)  Meg Myers  ~  "Cold"



3)  1987 Calgary Flames  ~  "Can't Touch A Flame When It's Red Hot"  (For non-sports fans, the Flames are a professional hockey team – and apparently, 25 years ago, they thought they could sing...)



4)  Current Swell  ~  "Too Cold"



5)  Katy Perry ft. Elmo  ~  "Hot N Cold"  (Despite its never actually having aired on Sesame Street, this version is much preferable to Perry's original song.)



6)  Janelle Monae  ~  "Cold War"



7)  Keith Urban  ~  "Long Hot Summer"



8)  Hammock  ~  "Cold Front"  (Don't hold your breath for the lyrics – there aren't any – but what an instrumental!)



9)  The Wiggles ft. Jamie Redfern  ~  "Hot Poppin' Popcorn"  (I can't even believe I'm posting a song by The Wiggles!)



10)  Typical Cats  ~  "Bitter Cold"



11)  Kool & The Gang  ~  "Too Hot"  (I can hear you singing along...just so you know...)



12)  Joshua Hyslop  ~  "Cold Wind"



13)  Buster Poindexter  ~  "Hot Hot Hot"  (What a dreadfully silly song...and dreadfully catchy, too!)



14)  Hank Williams, Sr.  ~  "Cold Cold Heart"  (For all of us old-school country music fans...)



15)  Led Zeppelin  ~  "Hot Dog"  (Not your typical Led Zeppelin song, but not bad...)



16)  Annie Lennox  ~  "Cold"



17)  LaToya Jackson  ~  "Hot Potato"



18)  Paloma Faith  ~  "Stone Cold Sober"



19)  The Sylvers  ~  "Hot Line"



20)  Adele  ~  "Cold Shoulder"  (Seeing as this is Adele's 4th appearance – so far – on my blog, you might have already guessed that I'm a big fan...)
