A lyrics quiz.
You folks remember these? :)
If not, or if you are a new reader (doubtful, but, hey, I can hope, right?), I'll give you a lyric, and you supply the song title and the artist who sang it. If there are multiple versions of the song, I highly encourage petty fighting and arguments about which is the superior one.
These are mostly pretty easy, I think, but might be fun.
1.
Tonight's the night well make history, honey, you and I2.
And I'll take any risk to tie back the hands of time
And stay with you here tonight
When we hear the voices sing3.
The book of love will open up and let us in
Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend4.
I want to guard your dreams and visions
I've asked myself5.
How much do you
commit yourself?
All alone I have cried6.
silent tears full of pride
in a world made of steel,
made of stone.
She said I'm sorry baby7.
I'm leaving you tonight
I found someone new
he's waiting in the car outside
Stop playing with my heart8.
Finish what you start
When you make my love come down
I still recall9.
A sad cafe
How it hurt so bad to see her cry
I didn't want to say good-bye
we were both too tired to sleep.10.
So we took turns a staring out the window at the darkness
'til boredom overtook us, and he began to speak.
At school they taught me how to be
So pure in thought and word and deed
They didn't quite succeed
I had forgotten how much fun these were to create :)
