Round Three!

[lumy12]

Last round of the year, as soon I'll be listening to Christmas music all day every day at work ^_^ Yay Christmas music!

Rounds 1 and 2 went to my brother and elledwen, respectively. No fabulous prizes to award cuz then some of you would cheat but you do get the dubious honor of having your name mentioned in my journal, see? Yay! The only hint I'm going to provide is that #25 totally reminds me of azurien, and if she doesn't have this song I'm totally sending it to her.

I think I got at least 12 right?

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

Holy crap you actually have one right in there!
And... hey lookie, your dumb guesses sorta match the lyrics. Don't make me LOL at work, you butthumper!

Actually, you got another one right too, but you got the artist wrong so I'm not giving it to you. (hint: Ronald Reagan didn't sing that song)

I'm going to play #18 for you. It's way more of Aaron song than a chick song! I don't think anyone will guess that, though, as the band is new and this song isn't a single (that I'm aware of).

[aaronisthebest.livejournal.com]

Actually, I was kinda thinking my six was your three, but Wendy's five was my seventeen, which used to be my twelve but was Wendy's two.

#5 Beautiful Boy by John Lennon
#25 LA song by Beth Hart

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

Yay! Dang this one's hard, no one's getting more than 2.

[aaronisthebest.livejournal.com]

God damn it all to Tom Brokaw, HOW could I have missed #2?

I love rocknrollpixie, she knows ten answers at a time.

Of course, I did guess fifteen more than she did, though, so I get 17 bonus points.

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

You're a...
Oh wait, you get mad when I call you a dork on here.

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

Holy crap! You're going to admit that you cheated now, right? I'm soooooo impressed! *bows down to you*

8. Garbage "Cup of Coffee"
10. the Bailey Salinger song, Live "I Alone"
22. 30 Seconds of Jordan Catalano err I mean To Mars "The Kill"

And #18 sounds like it's an MCR song but I can't place it.

-Stad

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

Correct, of course! #18 is the one no one will get. It's not MCR.

I'll post answers this weekend I guess. Want another hint? One of those is a Cranberries song...
