Create anchors for Songs #16

Create anchors in a way that it is easy for people to scroll through songs.

I've tried to do this in a few ways, but they all more or less negate the search bar.

When I tried the apple-style navigation bar, it does not really look good at all since it still requires a page scroll on the iPod. And, it does not really work with gestures, you have to individually click letters.

The other thing I tried was to hide all the songs except for their headers, then let people click the header letters and it pops out the songs underneath. It looks good on a PC, but initial testing on iPod shows it's harder to use. I keep brainstorming easier ways to navigate such a large list but without having direct anchors or some kind of persistent nav bar on the side it seems the search bar might be the best option for now.
