It took me a while (well, I forgot, but whats the difference!) but here is my long overdue quiz.

The name of the game is guess that tune. I will give you a line from a song, and you have to give the name of the song. Simple.

1. Don't it always seem to go, that you don't know what you got till it's gone.

2. And as the microphone squeaks A young girl's telephone beeps Yeah she's dashing for the exit And she's running to the streets outside (My personal favorite)

3. Self satisfaction for the factions Who formed to tear us apart Well I gave you the Midas touch Oh you turned round and scratched out my heart

4. Shut the bedroom window in the morning Go to the shop, make plans to be leaving

5. I hope that you are havin' the time of your life, But think twice, that's my only advice

6. Well this is a good idea, He wouldn't do it if it wasn't, He wouldn't do it if it wasn't one.

7. So at my show on Monday I was told that someday You'd be on your way to better things

8. When my mom and dad were in their teens and anarchy was still a dream and the only way to stay in touch was a letter in the mail

9. Did you have to go to jail, Put your house up on for sale, did you get a good lawyer?

10. Here’s my bright idea, I’ll just disappear, I’ll just fly away from here
