| I don't even know six of the songs, let alone recognise the lyrics (I should have gotten the Genesis and Toto ones, though). |

| And I forgot to add that I counted full points for Corsato's answer Broken for Skunk Anansie, instead of Brazen. I thought it was close. |

Just a few more days, and I can't say that the number of contestants is exactly overwhelming..... That means you just might win!

| Sorry, four of them. I websearched the others and found that I'd heard four of the other songs (although only one of them did I say "yeah, I might've come up with that"). Too diverse for me, perhaps. |

| Alas, I know exactly three of these, and while that looks like it could be a winning entry, it's also not worth actually sending email for. |

So I put another one together. I tried to pick an interesting variety of the 70's, 80's and 90's, to give you all an even chance  Scoring is as follows: 4 points for the correct title and artist 2 points for either the artist or the title -1 point for incorrect guesses.
Don't post your aswers here, email them to me at: jesternl@yahoo.com
And here are the lyrics:
1) The second hand unwinds 2) Slowly learning that life is OK 3) Wouldn't time be out to charm you 4) And I'm speedin' into a new sunrise 5) Don't wanna struggle and fight 6) Scratching and crawling along the floor to touch you 7) Why don't you weep when I hurt you? 8) Alone in the church by and by 9) Pack a vest for your Jimmy in the city of sex 10) Words are meaningless and forgettable 11) The music is weaving haunting notes, pizzicato strings 12) I stopped an old man along the way 13) Tell it's black when I know that it's white 14) Heavy rings on fingers wave, another star denies the grave 15) And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Tiebreaker: What are my three favorites from these 15?
Enjoy!!
I'll set the deadline for June 15 ------------------ Homo Sapiens non urinat in ventum.
