Ok kids, it's time to test your knowledge of my playlist. Here are 30 random lyrics from 30 random songs. Name that tune!

1) "But when you talk about destruction, don't you know that you can count me out..."
2) "Victor dreamt of America..."
3) "In the deep blue night, I sleep next to a stranger..."
4) "My lonely days are over, and life is like a song..."
5) "I would sell my soul for something pure and true - someone like you..."
6) "As I walk through the valley where I harvest my grain, I take a look at my wife and realize she's very plain..."
7) "She never has time to inspect her surroundings, it's touch and go with everything..."
8) "The blanket no longer keeps me warm - the cold it burns right through..."
9) "JFK blown away, what else do I have to say?"
10) "If you change your mind, I'm the first in line..."
11) "Time makes you bolder, even children get older, and I'm getting older, too..."
12) "It felt like springtime on this February morning..."
13) "And you were never a good lay, and you were never a good friend..."
14) "Cellophane flowers in yellow and green towering over your head..."
15) "Sometimes when I'm ridin' high, feelin' fine, you know there's something troubling my mind, so I reach into my pocket for some small change..."
16) "Then you put your arms around me and we tumble to the ground and then you say..."
17) "If you die, will I get word when you're gone? Will I hear it in passing on the station?"
18) "Have I been blind? Have I been lost inside myself and my own mind? Hypnotized, mesmerized, by what my eyes have seen?"
19) "They heard someone yell 'Ceasar!' 'How you think he means that? You think as in 'to seize her?'"
20) "You might say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one..."
21) "Don't go for second best, baby, put your love to the test..."
22) "Never gonna stop, give it up, I always get it up for the touch of the younger kind..."
23) "They made up their mind, and they started packing, and left before the sun came up that day..."
24) "Long time ago I had me a feller, three cocked hat and a coat of yeller..."
25) "So go and tell your servants, dear, to tie up all your silken gear, tell them you're to England gone, gone to buy your wedding gown..."
26) "I wanted you to see 'em all, I wished that you were there, I looked across the room and saw you standin' on the stair..."
27) "Couldn't you have got a couple piercings and decided maybe that you were gay?"
28) "Wonder if you're listening...does it make you think about the time we ran out naked in the summer rain?"
29) "Before I know it I'm going down this little bitty river in a boat a little bigger than a bathtub..."
30) "Candles are burning in the midnight mission, the past is a flood, the future a fire.."

Good luck, you'll probably need it;)
Put your answers in the comments and I'll post the key next weekish.

Mostly correct, but 5, 11, and 18 are the wrong titles.

11) Landslide
18) Thank You (?)

But 5 is definitely #1 Crush. I checked to make sure. (http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/garbage/1crush.html)

You're right. It is. It is listed on my winamp by its chorus. 18 is not Thank You.
