List of Songs and Arias in the Naomi Series

Here is a list of songs from the first book.

I've put them in groups according to scenes. I've noted my favorite performers on the ones that aren't obvious.

A separate list for the opera arias are at the bottom.

I hope that you can relate to some of these songs and that they bring back happy memories.
