Pat, there seems to be a few things that have somehow gotten out of whack in the database. For example, "It's My Party" by Lesley Gore has somehow become simply, "It." I ran across something earlier tonight that seemed strange, like some data got inadvertently deleted, but I can't recall what it was now.

Brian:

I recall Pat mentioning something not long ago about a bug in the database that was causing song titles to get truncated whenever an apostrophe was present. This would explain why "It's My Party" only appears as "It". (I pointed out that this same problem had occured with Louie Louie's "Sittin' in the Lap of Luxury" which had been mistakenly listed in the database as "Sittin"). He asked readers to bring these errors to his attention and he would correct them.
