    Polite request to Mr ?, to carry out above instruction.

    What's that you say?
    "RunTimer, please sneak in a new one", you say?
    well ALLRIGHTEEETHEN :blush:

    How'sabout some Music Road arithmetic:

    Solve for song (presented in License plate format)
    " i1u21(MAINE) "
    Hint: Artist name can be compared to pulling a quarter from behind someone's ear.

    4-way mash-up (see spoiler for definition). I'll provide the 4 artists (in order) and you have to provide the 4 connecting songs.
    Definition:
    Mashup: MA` sh * up: (n)
    The would-be song if two artists mashed their titles together
    Example:
    Artist: George Gerswin and Elvis =
    Song: I can't give you anything but LOVE Me tender

    1. R.E.M.
    2. John Mellencamp
    3. The Beatles
    4. John Denver

    Correct! I’m going to assume you meant to write “Sunshine” not “Sunday” on #3...

    It'd be fun to have a jigsaw puzzle of album covers and work on them. They would have to be blind, meaning you don't have a full cover to work from, to make it a bit harder.

    Album title:

    The _______________ Bob Dylan

    Clue #1:
    “Blank” is an “F” word, “characterized by a disregard for rules or conventions; unconstrained or uninhibited”
