They are responses to song lyrics. Put the song titles in the blanks at the bottom of the page and we'll do something with the starred letters.
For instance, this is a response to "Every Breath You Take" by The Police: "I've got news for you, you pathetic stalker. I've got a restraining order here, and if I catch you watching me just one more day I'm calling the police."
Note that there are 25 clues and 26 sets of blanks. Maybe the remaining set of blanks is where we put the letters into? There's a set of blanks that just 2,6 with no star, and it follows a long title -- maybe it's just wrap around? Or else, with no stars, that is the place to put the answer?
