Tenacious_Peaches 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2007 Thanks for the quotes, everyone. Keep 'em coming! The only thing I ask is that if you are quoting a song, please include the title and artist. There is a way to add a link to the quotes. I'm trying to add links to the songs that have Songfacts. If you see a quote with a link, do me a favor and click on it to see if it works. Thanks, my lovely Songfactors! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
