6. Here we are so what ya gonna do?

I think I know this one from Singstar, is it The Veronicas, song is called...Live Forever?

16. I'm so happy 'cause today I found my friends

Ahh, fellow teenager of the 90s - This is Nirvana, Lithium, I think. I'm at work and trying to sing the song quietly at my desk to remember the title!

[gemfyre.livejournal.com]

It's just called 4Ever.

[softpaw.livejournal.com]

4 lets here it for my boy!

19 Master of the house

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

now I know the first one, but not the title. It's Bob Dylan, isn't it? I think it's in our poetry book from high school.

2. Pretty Tied Up G'n'f'n'R ;)
13. I'd Die For You (I'd cry for you, I'd do anything I'd lie for you...)
16. Oh, Kurt. Lithium?
17 is Green Day? Longview? not sure.
19. ...and meet the best innkeeper in town! Master of the House! the Thenardiers, Les Miserables

Again, I probably should know more...

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

Heh, was right about the first one, I checked. But I won't say the title cos I had to look in the book to get that. ;) (page 266. And that song always reminds me of Social Studies and Mr Manuel)

[gemfyre.livejournal.com]

17 is not Longview. It's actually a band that features elsewhere in this list.

The first one is an old Bob Dylan tune, I have the more well known cover version though.

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

Ohgod, I just looked at 17 and went wtf, how did I think was anything but Estranged?

No clue on 14, though.

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

Also, I always confuse that line of no 1 because it is very similar to another poem in the very same poetry book. (Lord Randal)

O where hae ye been, Lord Randal, my son?
O where hae ye been, my handsome young man?
I hae been to the wild wood; mother, make my bed soon,
For I'm weary wi' hunting, and fain wad lie down.

[gemfyre.livejournal.com]

You should know 14.

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

Looked up 14, and nope. I have two albums by that band, but it isn't on them.

[glittery-girl.livejournal.com]

I'm in a hurry so i bet i get these wrong... here goes!

#3 is wipeout? I can sing it, just can't name it!!

#16- Nirvana- lithium

#18 temple of the dog- time of trouble

#19 Les Mis- Master of the House

You're close, but not quite with the names of those last 2 Zeppelin songs.

The rest are right (I've only heard the Bryan Ferry version of Hard Rain too).
