[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

You are so smart. *cuddles*

[fox1013.livejournal.com]

And 11 is from Wish I Could Stay from OMWF!

And I am just going to keep guessing things until I am cast bodily from your LJ!

[helvirago]

Ah! #3: Women and Men, They Might Be Giants

(So proud of myself! Haven't heard the song in ages.)

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Dude, I don't think that's likely to happen.

[mamajoan.livejournal.com]

Ooh! I know #11! It's from the Buffy musical! The one that Giles sings! Dammit! What the hell is it called again??

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Yay! Correct!

[mamajoan.livejournal.com]

You Suck!!!

um, I mean, good catch. *pout*

[lifeinwords.livejournal.com]

#1: Weezer, Undertow
#213: Fiona Apple, On the Bound

Whee, this is fun!

[fox1013.livejournal.com]

8. It's these little things they can pull you under
Live your life full of joy and wonder

Sweetness Follows - REM

*LOVE* that song.

[helvirago]

Aha! But it's not On the Bound, it's Get Gone!

Can we share credit on this one?

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Sure! Since I am dictator, I will it so!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

*pets you*

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Wrong Fiona Apple song, but you get half-credit. The title I have for the Weezer is Surf Wax America, but yours counts.

oooh i totally know one!

[honkytonkgirl.livejournal.com]

#14 is how fucking romantic, the magnetic fields....

That song always make me think of you, too.

Yep!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Yes!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Aww, I am a silly, too. But I am glad I got to come and visit with you guys last week, at least.

[qe2.livejournal.com]

...I think #4 is "Bobby Wants a Puppydog for Christmas", by Merle Haggard.

That's what I think.

Well, I think that you are 100% right.
