I'm here first so I'm gonna be a hog about the songs.
1 - Ironic Alanis Morriset (spelled her name wrong pls don't dock points)
7 - Into the Mystic (Can't think of who sings my favorite version but it is on the Dream a Little Dream soundtrack)
9 - I THINK it is Big Star by Kenny Chesney (yes? No?)
18 - Jesus Take The Wheel - Kari Underwood (Once again sp)
20 - Live Like You Were Dying - Tim McGraw (total hottie BTW if I could just look like Faith!)
and although I cannot think of the name or person the song #10 is going through my head so eventually I'll get it!!
And geez woman, your tastes in music are as varied as mine!
Happy Birtday Gret!
WTG, Char!
1) Correct. My fave line from that song is "It's meeting the man of my dreams...and then meeting his beautiful wife" Oh so very true! Tell me that hasn't happened to you at least once...
7) The ONLY version worth mentioning is the one by Van. Sorry, all the others are just very cheap imitations.
9) Yes! Love that song. Gotta sing it at full volume!
18) Correct. That one just has so many layers to it. Really dig it.
20) Correct. My neighbor, also named Shane, looks just like Tim. Really freaky. Gret and I just realized this a few months back.We were totally drooling over Tim's pics on his cd, then I almost choked. "Oh My GAWD! Tell me he doesn't look just like Mr. Shane!" And Gret looked and said "Oh mom, that is just wrong on so many different levels!" Then I had to tell his wife that we'd been droolin over Tim, and it just went downhill from there. Luckily, she laughed about it. Still, I haven't looked at either one of them the same since!
Lori,
Very very nice! 8, 10, and 13 area all correct! I'm kinda shocked that you got 13. It's one of my favorites.
And you've got the right artist for 5 & 19. Cool.
11) You say you want diamonds in a ring of gold, you say you want your story to remain untold
Actually it goes:

THE CURE - Pictures of You

LOVE SONG - the cure
14 I've waited hours for this, I've made myself so sick
Close to Me - the cure
ok now that i think about it, that is one part of the song tooo - all I want is you....remember when I sucked at this stuff?
Oh! I just saw this. Haven't been around Bloggerland for a while. And after I typed up my answers,I looked up at the other comments and read that Kel beat me to all of them. ;)
#5 The Cure- Pictures of You
#14 The Cure- Close to me
#19 The Cure- Lovesong (Which we played as our second dance at our wedding)
And since those are the only ones that are familiar (and they are from my high school days) you've probably figured out what I looked like in high school. :)
Was it Gret's birthday? Happy birthday to a fellow moonchild!
Kim:)
Lori,
No, it wasn't that YOU knew that it was Casting Crowns, it was that ANYONE knew it was Casting Crowns. I saw them last year, and you're right, they were totally amazing. It's the only concert I've ever been to where they had an altar call and a separate room set up with local Youth Leaders tohelp people that had just received Christ. Honestly, they are one of the most powerful groups in Christian music today, IMHO.
Kim, it was mine and Gret's birthdays. And yeah, I can only imagine what you looked like in HS - BEAUTIFUL, just like now!!
Kel, listen to that one again. I did. The very first two lines are You say you want diamonds..., you say you want your story..., but all the promises we made... . LATER in the song it says what you said. And you're right on all The Cure songs. But I think you totally cheated. ;>P And I really can't believe you got the Billy Joel one. Cool!
