Lyrics Quiz - Live 8 Edition


I found this idea over at Postcards From Metro Suburbia and I thought it would be a good idea to steal (I mean sample, because stealing is wrong). So I have 25 different lyric listed. IF you think you know one, list the Artist and Song (must have both to receive credit) in the comment section, and if you are correct, I will un-bold the lyric and give you credit. If this is successful, it may become a monthly staple on the 9th Green and I will list the person with the most correct answers in a winner’s section on my sidebar. The first theme will be artists who performed at so lyrics were chosen at random from those artist (and possibly former bands *hint*).

  11. 17. REM: What's the Frequency, Kenneth? How did I miss that the first time? REM wrote that song based on a phrase said to Dan Rather before some hired attacker hauled punches at his face.
