I knew a ton of these, but they were already taken... and I want to say #13 is "I Go Crazy" by Paul Davis, but it wouldn't work because it starts with an I...

Just remembered #5 is "Endless Summer Nights" by Richard Marx!  I knew that was familiar!

Hi lebeiw15!  You are right on #5!  ;D

"I Go Crazy" was released in 1978, and I'm sure you know that I wouldn't use a line that contained the song title!  ;)

13.  Lose Control (Turn That Radio Up) - Eric Carmen

But this should be "12"  ???  is it "Make Me Lose Control" then?  I've seen the song listed both ways.

Hi Rice!  Your second answer was correct, and there is no subtitle.  It's simply "Make Me Lose Control".  ;)

Hmmm... is #15 by the Thompson Twins?  It sounds kind of like a song by them, but I can't think of which one...but then again I could be wrong...

I'm lifting the limit on this one in hopes that it will be completed soon so I can put up the last (1989) in my series of "A to Z" (by year) quizzes!  ;D

Hi CF :)

I'd help you with these, but the lyrics are kinda obscure to me :-/  I can tell you other songs that have the same lyrics but I can't guarantee they're 1988 :-/
