(2) Double Listings

#1 & #6 (under Duets) are the same (Close To You). Also #15 still needs to be combined with #1 (Under Duets) (That Girl).

That was a bad data fix, now repaired

Double Listing - That Girl

#15 should be combined with #1 (under Duets w/Shaggy).

Data fixed, thank you

Set The Night To Muisc

Pretty sure this should be included in his list of contributions - big hit for he and Roberta Flack (it's already in her listings!)
