Songs where singers say their names

	A	B	C	D	E
1		OKAY GUYS. This is a spreadsheet gathering data so that we can edit together lots of pop singers and rappers calling their names out in alphabetical order, like a roll call.		PEOPLE WHO'VE ADDED STUFF TO THIS SPREADSHEET ARE (put your name here for crediting purposes, if you want to be credited): Sarah Johnson, Sam Carelse, Josh, Emma, Alice, Gareth, Clare, some taken from a discussion forum here: http://www.stevehoffman.tv/forums/archive/index.php/t-238798-p-4.html
2		If you want to add examples of people calling out other people's names then that's great too, and we'll figure out what to do with them later - whether including them in the list generally, making it a call-and-response ("Britney?" "Britney!") or something else.
3		THIS ROW IS FOR QUESTIONS AND SUGGESTIONS AND NOTES, if any:
4
5	Sampled?	Name of performer	In which song do they say their own name? If it's "I'm [so-and-so]" or [so-and-so] here" that's particularly great. For bonus points, how far into the song does it happen? No worries if you don't know.	OPTIONAL: Does someone else call out their name in a song in a particularly compelling way? For bonus points, who is it and how far into the song?	Any other notes?
