Hey CF...

#6 is the Eagles but I'll be dipped if I know the song.

I'll take a blind stab at #14 and say It Must Have Been Love by Roxette...

I'll take another stab with #25...I know it's Heart but not sure about the song...is it Who Will You Run To?

Hey there, gamblefish! :D

Okay, #25 is absolutely correct.

You have the right band for #6, and the song in question is off their Desperado album. ;)

You also have the correct group for #14, but the song is not right. The one I'm looking for was on their Joyride album (from 1991, I believe). :D

Hope those hints help.
