Sssolved. I did a typo in Crosshare and I thought I blew it. Resubmitted and it was correct!

Sssolved! First timer, so thanks for a gentle intoduction, @Cap'n Rick !

Great puzzle. My mom would always have the oldies station (104.3 WJMK) on in the car and I heard this song constantly! Still love it.

SSSolved, and kicking myself for not ssseeing what was in plain sssight.

Late ssstart, sssolved nnnudgelessly. Clever concept, Cap’n!

SSSolved.....Amazing puzzle.....thanks Capn.

After spending too much time making it more complicated than it was meant to be, I finally got it. Thanks, @Cap'n Rick for a very nice puzzle! It was nice having a pleasant alternative whilst we await the delayed Gaffney.

The title had me playing the old song of the same name in my head. That led me to wonder if 14A was put in for a reason!

I'm afraid I "don't know much about" that subject either, @ship4u.

SSSolved without nudges but with LOTS of incorrect variations of the answer. Typical Cap'n meta with great fill, plenty of hidden nudges and a novel mechanism. Ummm good!
