[SteppingRazor]

1. My guesses:

1. Dunno
2. "Mustang Sally" Wilson Pickett
3. "Space Oddity" David Bowie
4. "Come as you Are" Nirvana
5. Dunno
6. "Just a Gigolo" David Lee Roth
7. "Nightclubbing" Iggy Pop
8. Dunno
9. Dunno, but it's definitely by Prince, because of those annoying "Us" instead of "yous"
10. "Whole Lotta Love" Led Zeppelin
11. "Holiday" by Green Day
12. "Ripple" Grateful Dead

[LynneSin]

2. Wilson Pickett does sing a song with "Ride Sally Ride" in it

but that lyric is not from the song.

[SteppingRazor]

4. OK, so one wrong. But, hey, for off-the-top-of-my-head guessing...

I think I did pretty good :P

[LynneSin]

5. For what you guessed - you were right

and yes, that "U" was a dead giveaway - but that was 12 songs that came on my MP3 player

[jmowreader]

3. The first one's Springsteen's "Rosalita"

The third one's Davie Bowie's "Ground Control to Major Tom"

Number six is "Just a Gigolo." I know David Lee Roth covered it but don't know the original band.

The rest are a blank.

[ComerPerro]

26. The Bowie one is Space Oddity

[Phillycat]

6. The ones I know:

4. Come as you are - Nirvana
6. Just a gigolo - David Lee Roth
9. Let's Go Crazy - Prince

[khashka]

7. Ok the one's I can do

3. Bowie
4. Nirvana

First person to get the ELO song but NO that is not the Bowie song

[khashka]

13. Damn!

Of course you could be nice.... Pat me on the back and say "Nice try Khash"

But that ain't gonna happen is it it?


Khash.

14. Not the right Bowie song - try again

1. No idea
2. No idea

8. No bloody idea
9. Prince - 'Let's Go Crazy'
