Show 64: February 2008

LOVE IS IN THE AIR IN THE MAUNA LOA LOUNGE!

Okay, Valentine's Day is a couple of weeks away...
But who says we can't jump the gun
with two sets of "songs of love."
Love songs, songs about love, or at the very least,
a bunch of songs with the word "love" in the title.

Also, an expanded version of the Pagan Love Song set
from last February (+ our "Love Potion" cocktail recipe!)

But first, a few songs by our artists of the month for February...
