Thirteen First Lines

I've typed up the first line(s) of lyrics from the last thirteen songs that played on my iPod. Guess the title/artist - WITHOUT looking them up on teh interwebs. 'Cause really, some of 'em are REALLY EASY/OBVIOUS. I'll screen comments so you can't check there either 'til later. Enjoy!

1) Now, the magic words...uh, oh...
2) You want to know, how it will be, me and her, or you and me...
3) If loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right...
4) In times like these, in times like those, what will be will be, and so it goes...
5) Some times in our lives, we all have pain, we all have sorrow...
6) If you build it don't tear it, it you build don't tear it down...
7) We can never know about the days to come...
8) I ache for the touch of your lips dear, but much more for the touch of your whips dear...
9) Sleepless hours and dreamless nights and far aways...
10) This is number one and good sir we've just begun...
11) Why are there so many songs about rainbows, and what's on the other side...
12) By the way you know that hope will make you strange make you blink make you blink make you sink it will make you afraid of change and often blame the box with the view of the world...
13) Listen up folks, the votes are in, it was anyone's guess who'd win...

Heh - actually, six (6) of the last 13 songs had no lyrics (classical and/or jazz and/or instrumental), so I modified mine to the last 13 songs played WITH lyrics.

Oh, [livejournal.com profile] lightfoote and [livejournal.com profile] wildwoosi are disqualified from playing as they've just heard 'em all this past w'end!

Well, #3 and #11 were pretty much give-aways...

5) Lean on Me and 11) Rainbow Connection, other than that, a few sound familiar but I cannot name them :)

Very good - 1 point for #5 ('cause [livejournal.com profile] jibb had already gotten #11).

#3 too obvious since that is the name of the song, but since it's been done by a few, I'm say Rod Stewart
#7 Anticipation, Carly Simon
#8 Masochism Tango, Tom Lehrer
#11 Rainbow Connection, Kermit the Frog

A big star for you for #3 and for naming the artist for #11. You're right w/#8 (but not the first to guess correctly). #3's by Luther Ingram.

2) Triad, David Crosby (sung by CSN)
3)If loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right... um, Bill Withers?
8) Masochism tango, Tom Leher

I should know 7, but it's not coming up...

Pretty darned good, 'cep #2 is sung in this case by The Byrds (not that you'd know that).
