I was actually looking for the original performer (sorry, should've specified)...but I'll give you both credit on that! :)

Nope, his brother Jimmy did "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted?". David was the lead singer of the Temptations.

You're right, Tanya...I'll give you credit for figuring out the right original artist. O0



Now if someone could figure out the remaining 4 songs...as a hint, all 4 of them are from 1992-98 (including one more "broken" song...with a really long title).

I knew the answer, but I didn't see it until late  :\'(

#11 is Break it Down Again. 

Excluding 1990's Woman in Chains (which carried over from 1989), Break it Down Again was the only US Top 40 hit that Tears for Fears had in the 90's

Yes! That's it!

I didn't think that would be too hard... but I'm glad I provided the hints. Yes, I do know about Woman In Chains, but this one was their more well-known song of the 90's.


A big thank-you to all who participated!! :)
