How did you do that, Ahab?
The br (line break) html tag. Just flank it with the lesser/greater than carrots at the end of each song citation. There's no need to close the tag. And you'll need to put an extra one on the empty line between song ten and the bonus.
Is this the hive mind at work?
Word verfication, FYI: "spongled"
