name that tune!

i'm a flake and completely forgot to post the answers. sorry about that!

jumping on the bandwagon...

here are the rules in case you haven't played the game. below are the first lines to 20 different songs. name the artist and the title for "full" credit. keep it fair by not googling or looking up the lyrics. have fun!

it must be noted -- i'm too poor for an ipod. so this list is from my mp3's on my old desktop...which i have not used or downloaded music to in 3 years. so don't laugh at my cheesy music! also, some of the lyrics are harder than others so for those, i put 2 lines.
