**Rule Addendum** \*\* So, like a dope I forgot a way for people to know the song but not the artist. Covers!! It’s possible to know the orginal version (“gold dust woman” by Fleetwood Mac) and not the cover (“gold dust woman” by Hole) or the other way around (who knew " It’s My life" by No Doubt is a cover of an 80’s song? I’ve never heard the orginal that I know of) So, if it’s a cover, and you know a version of it by someone else, give yourself a point, or 2 points if you know the exact version given. ---
