I'd like to ask the referees for a ruling on this--I don't think that articles should count, that is, "the" is not sufficient to link one song title to another. It's come up in some entries, and the original rules don't really say anything either way, but I want to recommend that going forward, we don't count articles, definite or indefinite, in one entry to the next. The real challenge in this game comes from matching more substantive words in the title, to the next title.
Just throwing that out there.
Prost!
