That lyric game again!

OK, you know how it goes. Random songs off my computer - name the song and artist:

1. Andrew - Smashing Pumpkins: 1979 (Shake down, 1979, cool kids never have the time...)

2. Cate - Phil Collins: Another Day In Paradise (She calls out to the man on the street, 'sir, can you help me?...')

3. Mike & Nick - The Eels: Novacaine For The Soul (Life is white and I am black, Jesus and his lawyer are coming back...)


4. He's a cold-hearted snake, look into his eyes...

5. Mike & Nick - The Police: King of Pain (There's a little black spot on the sun today, it's the same old thing as yesterday...)

6. Wham! Bam! I am a man...

7. Mike & Nick - Carly Binding: I See The World (I see the world and it's turning around with ease, it love is all we got we don't need your sympathy...)

8. We'll do it all, everything, on our own...

9. Well I know a place where the sun hits the sky...

10. Cate - Leonard Cohen: Hallelujah (Well I heard there was a secret chord that David played and it pleased the Lord but you don't really care for music do you...)

11. Andrew - UB40: I Can't Help Falling In Love With You (Wise men say, only fools rush in...)

12. Mike & Nick - The Doors: Break On Through (You know the day destroys the night, night divides the day, try to run, try to hide...)

13. Andrew - Steppenwolf (actually this version is INXS but I'll give it to ya): Born To Be Wild (Get your motor running, head out on the highway...)

14. Cate - Anna Nalick: Breathe (2am) (2am and she calls me cos I'm still awake, can you help me unravel my latest mistake...)

15. Cate - Destiny's Child: Say My Name (Say my name, say my name, when no one is around you, say 'baby I love you'...)


16. All the people in the crowd, grab a partner take it down...

17. Cate - Aretha Franklin: Respect (What you want, baby I got it, what you need, you know I got it...)

18. Andrew - Gnarls Barkley: Crazy (I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind...)

19. Andrew - Destiny's Child: Emotion (It's over and done, but the heartache lives on inside...)


20. A man decides after 70 years, that's what he goes there for, is to unlock the door...
