(If we are boring folks, or if this really isn't appropriate for a general discussion...I'll take all my questions to PM!)

Mark, I'm glad you brought up the repeats. I haven't been putting them in:
1) because if you look at the words written below the song...I'm really not sure how it's sung...unless you repeat the words also...which I doubt. I really don't understand that notation.

2) and also, my version of Cakewalk won't let me put in repeats (without just copying and pasting the entire section.)

Another liberty I took...when it starts a new section with a pick-up note...I just put the pick up note in the previous measure...ie., the midi just keeps going.

Take a look at #10 please. Even though the notes say it's almost impossible to notate that one..........there are triplets and rests within the triplet.......at one point I just had to change the length of a note, but the notation wouldn't print it!
