In this contest, we tested the knowledge of the fans about the lyrics used in Mary's songs. How did this work?

1. The participants had to complete the crossword puzzle at the bottom of this page, which consists of 45 questions based on the lyrics used in Mary's songs.
2. In the crossword puzzle, some boxes have a red or green border. To solve the puzzle, participants had to take all the letters of one colour together, resulting in two sets of letters, one based on the red boxes, the other based on the green boxes.
3. Each set of letters forms the title of another Mary Black song. But the letters are not in a predefined order, so they needed to puzzle a bit more. In the end, this resulted in two titles, one based on the red boxes, the other based on the green boxes. These two titles formed the answers for this contest.
