Hi Paul!

These lyrics quizzes are my passion and I have so much fun making them.  :)

And just to let you know, your answers are all correct.

Hi Gaylon!

You have the correct artist for #24 (Eagles), but I'm afraid that is not the right song.  I know that you know this one because you answered it on one of my previous quizzes....  ;)

#25 is right (and a very pretty song it is)...
