Creating a custom wishlist

Hi,

I am very new to drupal and I am finding it very difficult to get it to do exactly what I need through the various modules.
One of the things that I am trying to create is a Wishlist of songs to be played for a wedding. So I need to create something very simpe where I can create an entry form for songs which would include custom fields like:
Song title, Artist, Name of the person requesting it

After any users to the site enter a song and submit it, the song would be displayed in a wishlist table that I could display on a page node.

Nice to have features would be things like making the song title unique and things like that.

I have gone through the module list,
1) There is a movies wishlist but it doesn't let you customize the fields.
2) There is a wishlist module but it is dead set on forcing you to create a wish list of gift like items.

Can anyone help? This seems like something that could get done a lot more easily than trying to manipulate these modules.

Thanks,
Farsad

You need the CCK module and

You need the CCK module and the views module to create that. CCK allows you to create custom fields, the Views will make it possible to create a view for your site(block, table, list). Read the docs to get a better understanding of both modules.
