Music to my ears

OK, I'm bored of this now. I told my husband that if no one guesses, that he'll have to swoop in and save my game, but I'm really impressed - he didn't need to, you've all done so well. Thanks to all of you who played, it was very fun - and if you're playing the game on your site sometime soon, please let me know! I've listed the unanswered songs/artists below. Hope no one is kicking themselves after seeing them :)

My foot is throbbing and again I can't think of something to write. After Keris and Kate did this ipod meme, I was going to do it as well, but never got around to posting it. Well here it is, in all its glory. I've given the first lines of the first 25 random songs on my MP3 player and you get to guess the title and artist of the song. Post your answers in the comments and I'll update them as I recieve them. The rules were these, no repeated artists, nothing obscure, foreign or with the title in the first line for me and for you no googling the lyrics. Have fun (and now I'm going to go away and cry because no one will be interested in guessing, even though I think they're all a little too obvious)

1) So I'm a little left of center You Get Me by Michelle Branch, got by A

2) Turn out the light, just say goodnight to yourself Save Yourself by Sensefield, got by A - one of my favourite songs! This one of the songs my husband and I sing to Boy to help him go to sleep

3) You think that we connect, that the chemistry's correct Spiderwebs by No Doubt, got by A

4) When I'm wrapped around your finger and I'm never letting go Where Angels Fear to Tread by Bryan Adams, got by Polly

5) Night, lift up the shades Stupid by Sarah McLachlan, got by Shadowfalcon - I think this could be my FAVOURITE song

8) Well, I heard there was a secret chord Hallelujah by Rufus Wainwright, got by Kristin - I also have the Jeff Buckley version as well, I LOVE this song!

9) Oh, Life is bigger Losing My Religion by REM, got by Naddin J - I've found this was my best 'workout' song (when I actually still worked out) and now this song always reminds me of sweat and makes me feel a little guilty

11) What, am I to wake up suddenly and then Never is Enough by Barenaked Ladies, got by Naddin J

18) Games changes and fears I Try by Macy Gray, got by Diana

19) Everything is open, nothing is set in stone Driftwood by Travis, got by Polly

20) You can look to the stars in seach of the answers - Heaven's Here On Earth by Tracy Chapman (I thought after I posted this that no one would get this one)

21) If you had one shot, one opportunity Lose Yourself by Eminem, got by Kristin

22) Your heart is not open so I must go Power of Goodbye by Madonna, got by Shadowfalcon

23) I've got sunshine My Girl by the Temptations got by both NOLADawn, and Kristin
