Char, you hearty soul, glad you did not give up on ....evergreen ! You''ll B glad, 2 ! Tell me, was it the last few tucked in and there hints a few posts up - like hi derry day in the monh of may , to Rock-ish music ? As Ron said, whom I believe knew, as he commented a few times regarding in a way that indicated he knew, but as he'd looked it up, I think he takes honourable mention for having the admirable ethics for leaving it to someone off the top o' their head ! Hear-Hear, Ron !

onward to your submit, I'll slam dunk style. That is the faster method if ppl think it contains enough clarification to satisfy to all why the song did- did/not pass muster.... I can plow thru ten on slam dunk mode fast enough...since no ones voted, Char, what number of Q's/Clues do you want posted ? Ron suggested 3, not knowing I had been off to stuff in Denver, and the mice were submitting cheese to each other instead of the host lol.... as to the sense of Chaos: my gentle words hopefully cleared up not submitting to "each other" lol - but, like, too me ? That way I know its a submit - and they can get credit !

No spiralling downward problem here... I can do 10, 5, 3, I'd prefer either 10....., or 5 a whole integer fraction of ten, cause I can track clue's QTY. status completed more neatly in ultimately multiples of 10 - 5's add up to that if ppl wish. Thoughts ?, unless there is a vote from U or a few others, I'll tentatively post 5, and then go back to ten if no input. Lessen the "pyre' -type vague submission versus fun talk lack of clarity - I almost missed Shut-up-and Deals' correct submit !.... - all good fun, which is the point, but looked like chaos, and truthfully - I did get to where I could not tell if 2 ppl were submitting or commenting to one another - whch is cool. All above.. so your submit:
