Songs of the Week:  My Top 10 ½ Valentine’s Day Songs 

In the spirit of Valentine's Day, here are  my Top 10 ½ Valentine's Day Songs.  There is a song here for everyone.  Of course there are mushy gushy songs, a song of regret, a song of I HATE Valentine's Day, and a song of resurrection (from a bathroom stall).  So, check them out and I hope you ENJOY your Valentine's Day, NO matter how you feel about the Holiday!!!  

1) "A Hard Night in the Kitchen"  By Jackson Cage
- My favorite Rock n' Roll, Irishmen.  His music resembles those musical qualities of Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie and The Band.
