I think my PTT described me pretty well too (even if nearly everyone knew the songs anyway), after all, I picked the songs myself :P

Nice Ten in any case :thumbsup: It's the most unusual one so far I think, in that few people knew a lot (or even any) of the songs. :) It was fun listening to all the stuff that was new to me!
