It&#8217;s my 50th post. To mark the occasion, I thought we&#8217;d have a little contest.<\/p>\n<p>You may have noticed that some of my post titles are song lyrics, or song titles. In fact, almost all of my post titles are song lyrics or song titles. Some of them are even from songs that have something to do with the subject of the post.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m curious to see if y&#8217;all can identify them.<\/p>\n<p>Most of them should be easy, but there are a couple pretty obscure references in there. First person to identify them all, by title and artist, wins a Ghost Guides T-shirt. These are left over from when Sarah was running her own company, giving walking tours of the North End and telling ghost stories. We only have XL and XXL (I believe) but they&#8217;re pretty good-looking shirts. I&#8217;ll see if I can get a picture of one up here at some point.<\/p>\n<p>The following early posts are not musical references: &#8220;Digesting,&#8221; &#8220;Out of the mouths of babes,&#8221; and &#8220;Reading.&#8221; If it&#8217;s a song that&#8217;s been covered, I won&#8217;t be picky about the artist. Google is definitely allowed, although I think it might be more fun to try it without and see how far you get. If you get stuck or wish to collaborate, feel free to use the comments area to get together. I have plenty of T-shirts, so team prizes will not be a problem.<\/p>\n<p>Send your guesses to contest at my domain name, crankopotamus.com.<\/p>\n<p>Have fun, and thanks for reading.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey!
