10th Arbeidsvitaminen Lyrics Quiz

Hi!

Here's the tenth quiz. This one will be different from the former ones:
it consist of 20 fragments taken off former quizzes (quiz 1-9) and 20
fragments are taken off my albumcollection. This also means that the
fragments are more difficult than normal, but not if you use the 
information on my homepage! So it's a multiple choice for half
of the fragments: 20 of the 180 given answers are correct. For
the other half it's sensible to check out my favourite albums,
given on my homepage.. And try to gamble if you want to get a high 
score!

This quiz will be the last one of the general competion. After this
one a new competition of five quizzes will start, to give more chances
to new players.

The rules:

* The fragments are sorted alfabetically by artist/group.
* 20 fragments are taken of quizzes 1 to 9; 20 fragments are taken from
  (favourite) albums of my albumcollection. 
* Old quizzes can be found at the Arbeidsvitaminen Lyrics Quiz homepage:
  http://www.xs4all.nl/~dimitri/quiz/.
* My albumcollection can be found at 
  http://www.xs4all.nl/~dimitri/albums.htm.
  Alas it is not yet complete; If I have the time I will add more albums.
* 5 points for every correct artist/group; 
  5 points for every correct songtitle. 
  In total 400 points can be gained.
* When two participants get the same amount of points, the first entry
  will be higher placed.
* Do not return the fragments, only your answers. Returning fragments
  might be punished by a 10% deduction.
* The deadline of the quiz is wednesday 15 january. Entries can be
  sent to dimitri@dds.nl or dimitri@xs4all.nl. 
* Good luck!


1    But you're to shy to say it

2    I don't care how much money I gotta spent 
     Got to get back to my baby again

3    I was 21 years old when I wrote this song
     I'm 22 now but I won't be for long
     people ask me when will you grow up to be a man

4    I wait for you
     in heaven
     on this perfect stream of love

5    I'm only seven although I died 
     in Hiroshima long ago
     I'm seven now as I was then
     when children die they do not grow

6    And it all seems larger than life to me
     I find it rather hard to believe

7    Julius Caesar and the Roman Empire
     Couldn't conquer the blue sky

8    I cry 
     The tears don't seem to help me carry on
     Now there is no chance you comeback home
     got too much pride..

9    T.V. is the place where
     armchair generals and quarterbacks can
     experience first hand
     the excitement of a video warfare
     as the theme song is sung in the background

10   What you need is a lover
     A man to take over
     Oh girl

11   My darling believe me
     for me there is no other than you
     please love me too

12   "Not for you! No! I won't bend or change, 
     the way I see the world according to me"

13   It's the sound of my tears falling
     or is it rain
14   A heart, a heart that hurts 
     is a heart, a heart that works

15   I can take a hint from you
     I can a take a little hint from you

16   You must be joking
     You don't know a thing about it

17   I'm not the world most masculine man
     but I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man

18   This is not what I thought
     I thought I saw a million Dylans
     A Joni Mitchell or two
     Maybe even Carol King

19   We continued to talk and before you knew it
     We were at my house and it was time to do it

20   And if I should fall
     I know I won't be alone be alone anymore
    
21   Oh, the water
     Oh, the water
     Oh, the water
     Hope it don't rain all day

22   Oh well, whatever, nevermind

23   Here I am
     I'm playing daydreaming fool again
     it's my favourite game

24   I bought you drinks
     I bought you flowers

25   That it's harder to be friend than lovers
     and you shouldn't try to mix the two
     'cause if you do it and you're still unhappy
     then you know that the problem is you

26   And if the devil is 6
     then god is 7 then god is 7 then god is 7

27   I've got six things on my mind
     you're no longer one of them
     I've got six things on my mind
     you're no longer one of them

28   It 'll take the end of all time
     someone to understand you like I do

29   No one else can make me feel the colors that you bring
     Stay with me while we grow old and we will live each day in
springtime

30   Well I know 
     it's a dream I'm willing to defend
     I know
     It will all be worth it in the end

31   For there are brighter sides to life
     and I should know because I've seen them
     but not very often...

32   Don't touch me please
     I cannot stand the way you tease
     I love you though you hurt me so

33   O no, I can't believe
     there's something about you
     got me down on my knees

34   Runsunsun aj runsunsun
     Goodygoodygoodygoody runsunsun

35   Yes I think you've seen me before

36   I am tired, I am weary
     I could sleep for a thousand years

37   There's no need to be unhappy

38   How can a thing of permanence so swiftly disappear?
     Something is the cause of all of this
     - something that I missed

39   I've got a rare '61 Beatles
     I got a film of my dreams
     But I'd lose them all
     burn 'em all

40   When you're old enough to repay 
     but young enough to sell
