So, the answer to the lyrics quiz. Alex did best, perhaps not surprising since he has the opportunity to share my music collection every now and then :)

1) You're one microscopic cog in his catastrophic plan .. Designed and directed by his red right hand. Red Right Hand - Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

2) Into the night, I went looking for angels, Only to find that I was walking alone. Sister Rosetta - Alabama 3

3) There's a world outside, and I know, 'cos I've heard talk In my sweetest dreams I would go out for a walk ... but I don't think I'm ready yet. Not Ready Yet -Eels

4) The truth is boredom, it's excess. Walking Zero - Sneakerpimps

5) I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad: I got sunshine in a bag. Clint Eastwood - Gorillaz

6) Oh good lord what has he done Traded in his mind for a bullet and his heart for a gun. Day One - Gemma Hayes

7) When none of the pieces fit, you make sense of it. You Get Me - Michelle Branch

8) Lucky that my breasts are small and humble So you don't confuse them with mountains. Wherever, Whenever - Shakira

9) I made a deal with the ocean, I made a deal with the ground. ... Billie listens to your heartbeat, when I'm not around. Billie Listens - Joan Osbourne

10) It was on Monday, my mother told me: Never pay the reaper with love only. Lucky - Bif Naked

11) It's always cold, it's always day, you're always here, you always say "I'm alright, I'll be OK" ... If I can keep myself awake. Keep Myself Awake - Black Labs

12) When you clean out the hive does it make you want to cry? ... Are you still being followed by the Teenage FBI? Teenage FBI - Guided By Voices

13) Elvis lives in my room, tied up to my bed. Love me til I'm tender ... in my head. In My Head - Transister

14) We'll never say goodbye; We'll just lay down and die ... before the mountain. Before the Mountain - Joan Osbourne et al. (from the Largo album)

15) You know I've got my pick of any toy little boy - Replaceable, disposable, fully action posable. You're a star - Josie and the Pussycats

16) When I'm in the middle of a dream, stay in bed, float upstream. Only Sleeping - The Beatles

17) Remember the time we made love in the roses, and you took my picture in all sorts of poses. Lucky - Bif Naked. This one slipped by the proof edit - I hadn't wanted to have more than one by the same artist, let alone same song!

I was right - I am cross that I didn't get the Cave and Bif Naked songs. I also have the GBV song, but don't know the words.
