In Other Words 2: Electric Boogaloo - All Finished!
Here's a fresh set for you to ponder. I've reworded the titles of twenty popular hits. Not just the 80's, however. These go from the 60's to the present. I'm still willing to bet most of you are familiar with most if not all the songs I used. See if you can identify these songs AND the artists that sang them. Again, I think some are pretty easy and some are kind of rough. Good luck!
