breaking everybody's heart, singing everybody's song

low: everybody's song

with this post i'm beginning a new format. as you may have noticed each title of a post is a song lyric. i realize my tastes may be a bit obscure so i figured i'd let everyone else in on the joke and include the artist and song from which each lyric originates. and in order to enact some type of grandfather clause here's a list of all the prior subjects and their source material.
