1. I reached inside myself and found, Nothing there to ease the
Pressure of my every worrying mind
Uh oh oh oh.
All my powers waste away,
I fear the crazed (sorry I put "strange" before and that was wrong) and lonely looks The mirror's sending me these days
Uh oh oh oh

Touch me
How can it be?

2. I've got you under my skin
Where the rain can't get in
But if the sweat pours out
Just shout
I'll try to swim and pull you out.

3. GOT IT

4. My heart's like an open book
For the whole world to read
Seems like nothing
Keeps me together at the seams
I'm on my way-ay-ay
I'm on my way-ay

Hint: When I was in 8th grade, this was a song that many guys could play on the piano

5. Don't talk to me,
don't lie to me
Save your breath
Don't look at me
Don't smile at me
Just close your eyes

I was so impressed by you
I was runnin blind
I would fall for every trick
Every twist of mind


6. Love is so confusing
There's no peace of mind,
If I fear I'm losing you
It's just no good,
You teasing like you do

7. GOT IT
8. GOT IT
9. GOT IT

10. The music is weaving
Haunting notes, pizzicato strings
The rhythm is calling
Alone in the night as the daylight brings
A cool empty silence
The warmth of your hand and a cold grey sky
It fades to the distance
The image is gone only you &I
It means nothing to me,
This means nothing to me
Oh (insert name of Austrian city here)

:eek:

Hopefully that will help. #4 is a hair band. #1 is European/Scandanavian. #2, 5 & 10 are British.

[Paula]

I'm still thinking............
Someone will probably get them before me. I really feel like I should know two of these songs. I just cant get them yet!

[witchstone]

Come on, Adam! You're disappointing me.

[Adam]

Those aren't easy ones...

[witchstone]

Okay, I went back and added more hints.

[Paula]

Is # 1 by Aha!?
Could it be The Sun Always Shines On TV?

I think it was the 'touch me, how can it be' that got me thinking of that song.

[DT29]

Song 5 is "So In Love" by OMD.

Good one DOUBTINGTHOMAS29! I'd try to get them, but I don't want to make a fool of myself. :) Anyway, welcome to the new board! I thought I recognized your name from our last board.
