“J” Part 3 of 3

John [Cougar] Mellencamp - “Hurts So Good” and “Jack and Diane” from American Fool, “Without Expression” from The Best That I Could Do, “Cuttin’ Heads” and “Peaceful World” from Cuttin’ Heads, “I Need a Lover” from John Cougar, “Paper in Fire”, “Cherry Bomb”, and “Check It Out” from The Lonesome Jubilee, “Key West Intermezzo (I Saw You First)" from Mr. Happy Go Lucky, “Ain't Even Done with the Night” from Nothin' Matters and What If It Did, “Lonely Ol’ Night”, “Small Town” and “R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.” from Scarecrow, “Crumblin’ Down”, “Pink Houses”, and “Authority Song” from Uh-Huh, and “Walk Tall“ from Words & Music: John Mellencamp's Greatest Hits. Entire albums: Dance Naked, Freedom’s Road, self-titled, Life, Death, Love, & Freedom, Rough Harvest, and Trouble No More. I guess I would put Mellencamp in my Top 20. He is the only act I have seen at Red Rocks Amphitheater (Trisha Yearwood opened for him).

John Michael Montgomery - “Sold (The Grundy County Auction Incident)” from self-titled album and entire Life’s a Dance album.

John Parr - “St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion)” from St. Elmo’s Fire soundtrack. One of the best ‘80s songs ever.

John Reuben - “Him Her He She” and “God Is Love” from Are We There Yet?, “Nuisance” from The Boy vs. The Cynic, “Word or In Deed” from Monuments EP, and “No Regrets” from Take Time To Listen - Volume 5. Christian Hip-hop and pop. I had the privilege of seeing an intimate performance with John Reuben and he is just a normal guy, very friendly.

John Waller - Entire The Blessing album. Waller is featured on the soundtrack to the move Fireproof. If you haven’t seen it, go watch it, NOW! Waller is amazing.

Johnny Cash - Complete album Johnny Cash Sings His Best.

Johnny Flynn - “The Box” from his A Larum album. A Starbucks freebie. Flynn is British and this song sounds like it could be from The Beatles.

JoJo - “Too Little Too Late” from The High Road and “Baby It’s You” and “Leave (Get Out)” from her self-titled album.

Jon Ehrlich and Leigh Roberts - “House M.D. Theme Song” I love the TV show House and so I thought I'd obtain the theme song.

Jon Foreman - Lead singer and songwriter of Switchfoot, Foreman took a side step and did some solo work. The ending result is 4 EP’s, one for each season. Not a Switchfoot-sounding style, Foreman tones the music down and increases the lyrical deepness. Matching moods with seasons, Jon Foreman brings a fresh sound to Christian music.

Jon McLaughlin - Complete Indiana album. Soft melodies with a notable voice.

Jonah 33 - Entire albums: The Heart of War, self-titled, and The Strangest Day. Is it worth noting that there are only 4 chapters in the Book of Jonah, not 33?

Jonas Brothers - May I remind you, please don’t make fun of me. I happen to know what my students are listening to, unlike many elementary teachers these days. I connect with all people through music. I possess the entire A Little Bit Longer album and love it!

Jonathan Wiggins - Worship pastor at Resurrection Fellowship Church in Loveland, Colorado. Wiggins recorded an album entitled, The Year of the Lord. I love Wiggins’ voice and his uniqueness of leading from behind the keys and not the strings, as many worship pastors do.

Jonny Lang - Entire Wander this World album. Blues funk meets rocks is how I would describe this band.

Jools Holland and His Rhythm & Blues Orchestra - “Horse to Water” from Jools Holland's Big Band Rhythm & Blues. This song features George Harrison of The Beatles.

Josh Allan - Complete albums: All the Acoustic Pop You Can Drink, The Island Sessions EP, and The Let Go. Acoustic Pop if you can’t tell by the title of the first album. Josh Allan went to school with my wife and I and we even bought our washing machine from him. Josh, if you’re reading this, it is still going and cleaning clothes just as it was the first day it ever used. I would like you to come by sometime and autograph it. I’ll split the E-bay earnings with you 50/50.

Josh Groban - “You Raise Me Up” from Closer. I tried to listen to other Groban stuff and just couldn’t get into it. This track is historical, so I figured I’d better have it.

Josh Hoge - “360” from an album that never got titled because I don’t think it ever came out. Still a good song.

Josh Kelley - “Amazing” and “Everybody Wants You” from For the Ride Home. Sounds like Jason Mraz and James Blunt combined.

Joshua Kadison - “Picture Postcards” and “Jessie” from Painted Desert Serenade.

Joshua Street - “Worlds Apart”, “With Me Always”, “You Have Chosen Me” and “Accountability” from an album they never titled. My wife was in the same major as these guys and somehow ended up with a CD of their stuff. I’ve decided to titled the album after the band, Joshua Street. In case you are wondering where Joshua Street is, its in London. There are other Joshua Streets as well, in various countries, including the US (in multiple states).

Journey - Complete Escape, Greatest Hits, and When You Love a Woman/Message of Love albums. The last one is more of a single or EP than an LP.

Joy Electric - “Lift Up Your Hearts” from Cheapskates: Softer Side and “The Cobbler” from Tooth & Nail Rock Sampler Vol. 1.

Jude - King of Yesterday from American Eagle’s Get Together sampler.

Juelz Santana - “There It Go (The Whistle Song)” from What the Game's Been Missing!

The Juliana Theory - “The Closest Thing” from Cheapskates: Softer Side, 6 songs from Emotion is Dead, “Infatuation” from The Juliana Theory / Dawson High Split, “Do You Believe Me” from Love, and 6 songs from Understand This Is a Dream.

Julianne Hough - “That Song in My Head” from her self-titled album. Country pop.

Justin McRoberts - “5th Wheel” from Take Time To Listen - Volume 5.

Justin Timberlake - “Cry Me a River (Official Remix)” from the album of the same name, all the hits from FutureSex/LoveSounds, and “Rock Your Body” and “Cry Me a River” from Justified.

Juvenile - “Slow Motion” from Juve the Great and “Back that Ass Up” from 400 Degreez.
