No need for Wildly Xciting intros here. Only one song title starts with X, and I'll award double points to whoever nails it. And this might not be the end. I just might start again with A&B and someone else(if not Henk) can take turns. Limit's 5, Good Luck!

But since Tanya is over the limit (Thanks, Doc. ;)), I'll say 16. is Walking On Sunshine by Katrina and the Waves.

OK, I'm going on record right now that the last one has nothing to do with marriage or weddings. In fact, one of the first guesses came very close. my comment actually has 2 clues now, so think about it again!
