Comment:

19 DIFFERENT songs. This started out as a concept mix but turned out SO much better than I had expected. My first mix put together predominantly from downloads (The only thing that is going to save me is that I'm still on Dial-Up so each song takes twenty minutes.) I only owned 4 of these before I started this (a copy to the first person to guess which 4).
I was contemplating doing a companion disc with "Hold On Loosely", "Hold On Hold Out", "Hold On Hope", "Hold On Tight" and such but I'll leave that to someone else. Artists that missed the cut: Dashboard Confessional, David Gray, Trick Daddy, New Kids On The Block, Reba McEbtire, Holly Cole, Mighty Clouds Of Joy, Sam Bush, Sawyer Brown, Shawn Mullen, Sister Hazwl, Wild Cherry, Natalie Cole, JJ Cale and Chicago.

Yup, all unique, I almost guarantee you'ld recognize 2 and 17 and I'ld be surprised if you hadn't heard 3, 6, 10 and 19.

Cool! This is exactly the sort of thing I've always wanted to do but my resources have never stretched this far - well done on this. Good Waits and Neko Case picks especially.

I know a pitiful two of these tracks, so I'm in no position to guess your four. Impressive stuff, though!

This very cool. And, I can't resist a quiz so I will say 3, 6 & 10 were in your collection, and 14?

Wow, I have flirted with the idea of a mix like this many times. It was always a little too foreboding, though. Well done. Pure balls.

Whoo - the only one of these I think I recognize is Sam & Dave's "Hold On I'm Coming", & that's not even one of them!

I'll take a wild guess in a desperate attempt to win a copy: 3, 5, 9, & 16?

Cool! I once did one of these with mucho different songs titled Dance the Night Away. We learned something in statistics about the probability of picking 4 things in a pool of 19 being 1 in a quadrillion or something. But I'm gonna guess you're not a Limp Bizkit kind of guy, and say 3, 5, 12, 17?

hmmm.... everyone who has guessed has gotten exactly one right (which one could it be and how could they have guessed?)

Still only 1... OK, so we've established that 3 is a yes and 5,6,8,9,10,12,13,14,15 and 17 are no's.....

You're missing John Lennon's version from Plastic Ono Band, but heck of an accomplishment
