3.) "I'm not the kinda of man who tends to socialise. I tend to lean on old familiar ways,"

4.) "Now we're going steady, been together several weeks,"

5.) "Too high, can't come down, my heads spinning round and round,"

6.) "I never knew time could pass so slow. I wish I never met you oh, then I could bear to let you go,"

8.) "And blind acceptance is a sign. Of stupid fools who stand in line,"

9.) "Maybe we'll leave come springtime? Meanwhile, have another beer. What would we do without all these jerks anyway? And besides all our friends are here,"

11.) "All you left is our favourite song, the one we danced to all night long,"

12.) "I know I've gone too far, much too far I've gone this time. Don't want to think what I've done,"

13.) "Today I sleep in the chair by the window, it felt as if you'd returned,"

14.) "Last night they loved you, opening doors and pulling some strings,"

15.) "There's no profit in deceit, honest men know that revenge does not taste sweet,"

16.) "I can't change my mind, I knew all time, that she'd go. That's a choice I made long ago"

19.) "You ask me if I'm happy here, no doubt about it. You ask me if my love is clear, want me to shout it?"

Oh, drag it all up again why don't you!!! banghead

ANY-WAY, he says getting up a head of steam, from what I remember, I only said it vaguely reminded me of Comfortably Numb, I don't actually say it WAS Comfortably Numb. I am sending the boys round with the baseball bats.

Oh, and 14 is a Bowie song but I'm buggered if I can remember which one, and I've been listening to a lot of Bowie recently.

4.) "Now we're going steady, been together several weeks,"

5.) "Too high, can't come down, my heads spinning round and round,"

Aargh - so it is!

Some of the others are maddeningly familiar. I'm off to Google for them, so I hereby withdraw from the competition.

another few gone;

4.) "Now we're going steady, been together several weeks,"

6.) "I never knew time could pass so slow. I wish I never met you oh, then I could bear to let you go,"

11.) "All you left is our favourite song, the one we danced to all night long,"

12.) "I know I've gone too far, much too far I've gone this time. Don't want to think what I've done,"

15.) "There's no profit in deceit, honest men know that revenge does not taste sweet,"

16.) "I can't change my mind, I knew all time, that she'd go. That's a choice I made long ago"

19.) "You ask me if I'm happy here, no doubt about it. You ask me if my love is clear, want me to shout it?"

Surprised 11.) & 12.) haven't gone.

6.), 16.) and 19.) are quite tough.
