A Fifth
Well all, we're one fifth of the way through Numerology. It would almost be sad if there weren't like 80 digits left to go. If you've joined us at some point since the feature's inception, here's your chance to catch up (besides, you know, clicking through to the archives). Here, as determined by David Klein's irrefutable scientific process, are the end all be all numero-musical selections for each and every digit 1 through 20.
Those of you who just jumped on to raid our mp3 cupboard, take note and read up. Click on the numeral itself for the specific written deliberations, and on the song title to listen to the winners.
There will be a test.

I'm glad that one of Dave's criteria was the inclusion of the number in the song title. Makes the list posted here much more visually satisfying.
