Lyric quiz!

In a change to the published schedule, we now present a lyric quiz. Same sort that's been doing the rounds recently - I stuck my MP3 collection on random, and these are the first lines of the first 20 songs that came up. (Well, just about; I skipped a couple of really obscure ones, and the instrumentals!)

Your job is to identify. Post title and artist if possible in your comments. No cheating with Google!

1) She says her love for me could never die
2) Looking out on the morning rain, I used to feel uninspired
3) I can hear the soft breathing of the girl that I love
4) Sometimes it's hard, to make things clear
5) I got your picture, of me and you
6) I blame you for the moonlight sky and the dream that died Tasmin Archer "Sleeping Satellite" Omally
7) It's the music that we choose, it's the music that we choose
8) Everyday I hear a different story, people saying that you're no good for me Wham! "Freedom" Miss Sixty
9) What do you get when you fall in love? Bobbie Gentry/Deacon Blue "I'll Never Fall In Love Again" SimonG
10) Some people call me the space cowboy Steve Miller Band "The Joker" Paul
11) I want to run, I want to hide U2 "Where The Streets Have No Name" Omally
12) I took her out; it was a Friday night
13) Don't sit around, you're gonna put it on your waistline
14) I can't light no more of your darkness Elton John "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me" Miss Sixty
15) She calls out to the man on the street Phil Collins "Another Day In Paradise" Fluffy
16) Hey you! Don't watch that - watch this! Madness "One Step Beyond" Paul
17) Wise men say, only fools rush in Elvis Presley "Can't Help Falling In Love With You" SimonG
18) Walking like a man, hitting like a hammer
19) Ooooh, the closer you get, the better you look, baby Jackie Wilson "I Get The Sweetest Feeling" Paul
20) Here I lie, in a lost and lonely part of town Bee Gees "Tragedy" Omally

Good luck! (Note that this is running simultaneously on my Blogger and Livejournal accounts - I'll try to cross post answers from each account. I'll try...)
