Thank you, and you are CORRECT!

Should I just do the other eight as a mercy killing?

You are correct, punkette.

And now I will lift the limit...to TWO PER DAY per person. At least drag it out some yet not too long so NewRo can finish it by the end of the week.

Right and right! I guess I'll look forward to two more from you tomorrow; since not very many others are playing.

Ah, another day!

#3 is "High On Emotion" by Chris "Don't pay the fairy, maaaaan!" De Burgh.

#6 is "Pump It Up" by Elvis Costello & The Attractions. This one hurt to hear a little. I love the Costello tune.

I happen to like that song as well, but I think the sample works well.

At any rate, BOTH CORRECT for you! You can submit your answer for the last tune tomorrow!

Let's wrap it up, shall we? If this is the right answer, that is.

#5 is "Colors" by Ice-T

You are correct because YOU tune into my show regularly and have heard me play it. "I am a nightmare walking..." Over. And Over. AND OVER.

This quiz is done! Have a great weekend!
