1 - Pretty Good Year ~ Tori Amos
5 - The Waitress ~ Tori Amos (at least I think it might be... the line is something like "she worked here a year longer than I," which is very close)
15 - Leather ~ Tori Amos
16 - Tear in Your Hand ~ Tori Amos
17 - Hounds of Love ~ Kate Bush
20 - Horses ~ Tori Amos

That line about going to college and filling his head with knowledge sounds very familiar, but I can't quite place it.

:)
