Ignore me. Clearly, I need more caffeine. And brain cells.
Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
Surprising no one, I have a clean copy of "Sixteen" from Lucero. I'll post it tonight.

What about 88 lines about 44 Women? Sexy and 17?
It's not in the title, but "Kiss Off" has that countdown.
Bonus points for coming up with a new number.

Actually, XM's '60s on 6 channel is running a special of Number Songs. I haven't heard it, but I'm sure they'd play "25 Miles" by Edwin Starr, or (if years count) "In the Year 2525" by Zager and Evans.
Oh, I eliminated ordinals, years, and route numbers from contention.
I'd like to get rid of times too, if I can find replacements.
