From Post 16, where the thread was restarted by atimnie: > [@](#): > > Resurrecting this thread, with the following changes. All genres accepted, none of this elitist BS. All song titles in English. Album titles only if an acceptable song title can’t be found. And a and the are not to be used to link song titles. So, in answer to your question which is no longer visible, YES, the word “I” would count. In Play: That’s What I Want For Christmas - Rosemary Clooney ---

Dunno why it wouldn’t; not like we’re playing Scrabble. FWIW (if anything), I thought it would when concocting that entry above; trying to balance the “co-operative, not competitive” urge against the “interesting, not trivial” one, it seemed to me that it was time for an “easy” one. NB: given the “EXACT” proviso, I’d guess that “I’m,” “I’ve,” and the like aren’t useful here. Just my 2¢; I don’t even work here, I just loiter in the lobby sometimes.
