13. "The secrets that we shared,"

14. "And isn’t it a mystery"
Gaylon - Kenny Loggins, "I'm Alright" (Thank you, I try.)

15. "It's a half past midnight."

Well done so far, guys. But we still have a few to go. I've added clues, so it should go a little faster now. And as soon as we're finished, we'll move on to 1981. Good luck!

Your Pal,
Doc
