L15 5. I've been laughin' since I left you. Cryin'-Aerosmith
I've been cryin' since I met you.

CF 6. Peace, what is it bad for? Maybe everything. War-Edwin Starr

We all know that crap is king, we need dirty laundry.

8. Stand still through the rain, stand still through the wind. And you'll always stand in a crowd. You'll Never Walk Alone-Elvis Presley
Walk on through the rain, walk on through the wind, and you'll never walk alone.

This is mostly a guess, but is #5 "Cryin'" by Aerosmith?  I don't remember the lyrics very well, since I haven't heard the song in a long time.  Is it..
"I've been cryin' since I met you."

???  :-/

Only two more left, and I'm surprised nobody's gotten #2 yet. It was a popular song by this singer-songwriter. #8 is a little harder, since it was from the artist's Gospel album.
