10 More Tunes - the LOLWTFOMGROFLBRBRTFM Edition
I thought I’d do an all-pop list this Friday after the smash success of last week’s 80’s list. A couple of songs got clipped from the original shuffle because they are far too generic to make good line guesses. 3 Doors Down, do you think “When I’m Gone” might have benefitted from some originality? And Kylie Minogue—I’m not even going to bother.
So, here’s the “We’re Not Quite As Generic as Everybody Else” pop round-up.
- The Donnas, “Fall Behind Me” – “When you skip steps on the way up, the gaps have a way of catching up.”
- Blink 182, “Not Now” – “It’s useless, my name has made the list, and I wish I gave you one last kiss.”
- The Who, “Behind Blue Eyes” [Fred] – “My love is vengeance that’s never free” (multiple artists possible)
- Moby, “Where You End” – “I was running kisses down every inch of her spine.”
- Tyler Hilton, “How Love Should Be” – “I’m not quite the knight I used to be.”
- Daniel Bettingfield – “Gotta Get Through This” – “Surely one more moment couldn’t break my heart.”
- Green Day, “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” [Fred – “My shadow’s the only one who walks beside me.”
- Sheryl Crow, “Soak Up the Sun” [Thud] – “My friend the communist holds meetings in his RV.”
- Matchbox Twenty, “Unwell” – “I’m not crazy, I’m just a little impaired.”
- Lenny Kravitz, “Lady” – “She’s chic, but she’s not shady, yeah.”
Meanwhile, I’ve been busy playing spammer whack-a-mole all day today. So much so that I almost forgot to post a Friday 10 at all. So, for the record, none of the answers in any way involve Cia_lis or V!agR@.

# 8 is correct.
#3 is (one of) the right band(s), but the wrong song title.

#7 is “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” by Green Day
That’s all I know.
By the way, your comment authentication sucks. I can barely read the code.

You are correct, sir.
And I’m not diggin’ the comment authentication, either. It’s a temporary measure until I get another way to keep the spammers at bay.

#3 is “Behind Blue Eyes” by The Who
(The Fred Durst version was just a bad, bad dream.)
Authentication code is one thing, and I understand why it’s necessary, but it took me five or six tries to post my last message.
