sabThe fifteen songs my $39 mp3 player will play me, out of the 500 songs saved to selfsame player. Ver. guess-from-the-lyrics-what they are.
There's a definite, um. Theme. Left to be identified are two non-Regina Spektor tracks and three Regina Spektor tracks, thanks to my very discerning tiny mp3 player.
