Notes:
Not only did I finish the P songs yesterday, I also managed to get through all the Q songs in just over an hour.  Aside from X, Q will likely be shortest letter depending on what Z has to offer.  Statistics for both letters to follow soon.  I also noticed that I don't have "Proud Mary" by Ike & Tina Turner, which I thought I had.
