Hi, Doc!
1: "Groove Is In The Heart" by Deee-Lite.
17: "Mouth" by Merril Bainbridge. (When the song first came out, I didn't know how to spell her name.)
18: Sounds like it might be "The Way" by Fastball, a group that had two other hits during the 90s: "Fire Escape" and "Out Of My Head."

Would it be too obvious to suggest "My One Temptation" by Mica Paris for #2?

Wasn't "Outta my head" a hit by Fastball as well?

Hey, Doc! I think I've figured out another one:
"Macarena" by Los Del Rio, which is #14. :D
By the way, my spelling on #17 was dead-on accurate (two R's and one L in the first name).
Modified to add:
Also, I know at least two others, but I've officially used up my limit.

Wait wait wait. #6 isn't "Rico Suave," is it? I think it is! What was the name of the guy who did that? Geraldo or something?
