I didn't know that.  Sorry if I overshadowed your quiz


28. I Just Wanna Stop - Gino Vanelli
32. The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down - Joan Baez


#6 and #28 are correct.  The song in #32 is correct, but Joan Baez was the cover version.  I am looking for the original.  A good guess though :)

3. Sum 41 - Fat Lip
7. Snow - Informer
9. Shania Twain - That Don't Impress Me Much

Sad that the Sum 41 song is the only one I like. Only reason I know the other ones is the %$(*&$% radio stations wouldn't stop playing them. Was going to ask where the bloody Kon Kan was, but apparently I missed the first quiz.  :)
