The song list is a javascript multi-dimensional array that has the following structure:
["Artist","Title","YouTube Code",SongLength]

an example: ["White Zombie","More human than human","LXpbrGBIGxw",253]

The songlist is a javascript file (you give it a unique descriptive name) that holds one muti-dimensional array
The array is series of 4-elemnt arrays
Here is a three song example:
videos=[
["White Zombie","More human than human","LXpbrGBIGxw",253],
["Nirvana","Lithium","sUUHNf0S5cA",256],
["Crash Test Dummies ","MMM MMM MMM MMM","-4WbwwhBmRk",241]
]

The array always has the name - videos - and its structure is always the same. An opening square bracket, followed by a series of four elements, comma seperated, in square bracts of tehir own. Each of these four element interior arays represent one song. Each of the interrior arrays is seperated by a comma, and the strucure ends with a final closing square bracket.

You can add as many interrior arrays (songs) as you want.

["Artist","Title","YouTube Code",SongLength]
Artist - The artist that created the video
Title - The video title
YouTube Code - the identifier string (found in the embed string, left of the video on youtube)
SongLength - thelength of the song (can be found at the botom of the video on the YouTube® video page)
