Date: 2011-08-23 02:07 am (UTC)I know almost all of these: some well enough to sing, the rest w/ about 2 exceptions well enough to know what they're about. #8 is I think the first song I learned to play (accompany) on guitar. "And the little tai-lor goes tripping through Hell with the broadcloth under his arm."
