Monday Music - Sweet, Sweet Bubblegum!


There is literally a ton of sugary sweet, bubblegummy, diabetes inducing music out there from both yesteryear and, well, this year. I loved it when I was a little girl and I still enjoy the nostalgia of listening to it from time to time. Not all of these acts went on to greatness, but some of them did. However, I appreciate them all for their sweet, fun, and sometimes double meaning (and not so double meaning) lyrics.
