    1/2 credit - 1st song is correct but not the 2nd.
    *Hint - the last word in the 1st song is the 1st word in the 2nd song.

    According to MFP protocol -
    "In the event if a tie, the tiebreaker goes to the original poster."

    Okay...since you two are too polite take the mic..

    I'll go again (cuz we know I'm not shy)
