1. Has he lost his mind?/Can he see or is he blind?/Can he walk at all/Or if he moves will he fall?
"Iron Man" Black Sabbath
2. I heard he sang a good song/I heard he had a style/And so I came to see him/To listen for a while
"Killing Me Softly With His Song" Roberta Flack
3. Hmm hmm hmm, yeah.../It is you oh yeah/It is you, you oh yeah/It is you oh yeah
4. Brand new number, folks, called Boogie Woogie!/It's a funny little song/Now, when I tell you to hold it, I don't want you to move a thing/And when I tell you to get it, I want you to Boogie Woogie!
5. I was born by the river in a little tent/And just like that river I've been running ever since/It's been a long time coming/But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
6. I looked out this morning and the sun was gone/Turned on some music to start my day/I lost myself in a familiar song/I closed my eyes and I slipped away
"More Than a Feeling" Boston
7. Look, if you had one shot or one opportunity/To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment/Would you capture it or just let it slip?/Yo, his palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
"Lose Yourself" Eminem
8. Splish splash, I was takin' a bath/Long about a Saturday night/A rub-a-dub, just relaxin' in the tub/Thinkin' everything was alright
9. Tin soldiers and Nixon coming/We're finally on our own/This summer I hear the drumming/Four dead in Ohio
10. When Johnny comes marching home again/Hurrah! Hurrah!/We'll give him a hearty welcome then/Hurrah! Hurrah!

11. Oh, a storm is threat'ning/My very life today/If I don't get some shelter/Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away
"Gimmie Shelter" The Rolling Stones
12. Well you've heard about love givin' sight to the blind/My baby's lovin' cause the sun to shine/She's my sweet little thing, she's my pride and joy/She's my sweet little baby, I'm her little lover boy
13. You get a shiver in the dark/Its been raining in the park but meantime/South of the river you stop and you hold everything/A band is blowing Dixie double four time
14. Hey Sister, Go Sister, Soul Sister, Go Sister/Hey Sister, Go Sister, Soul Sister, Go Sister/He met Marmalade down in Old New Orleans/Struttin' her stuff on the street
"Lady Marmalade" Patti LaBelle
15. For five long years/I thought you were my man/But I found out, I'm just a link in your chain/Oh, you got me where you want me
16. They pulled in just behind the fridge/He lays he down, he frowns/"Gee my life's a funny thing/Am I still too young?"
17. Well I'm a runnin' down the road/Try'n to loosen my load/I've got seven women on my mind/Four that wanna own me
"Take It Easy" The Eagles
18. My sweet Lord/Hm, my Lord/Hm, my Lord/I really want to see you
"My Sweet Lord" George Harrison
19. Midnight to six man/For the first time from Jamaica/Dillinger and Leroy Smart/Delroy Wilson, your cool operator
20. Come on, baby don't you want to go/Come on, baby don't you want to go/To the same old place, sweet home Chicago/Now, one and one is two, two and two is four
