Notes:
I have finally completed the "I..." songs.  The grand total was 442, spanning five days.  I'm likely not going to make it out of the I songs until early next week at the earliest.  There are still a lot of "If" and "It" songs to go.  I'm only working through Tuesday next week, and I'm unsure if I'll get the I's finished by then.  I'm very curious to see how many "you" songs appear, but we won't know that answer for months.
