#5 looks like "Somebody Told Me" by The Killers.
#25 looks like it might be "Jumper" by Third Eye Blind.

I might know a couple others, but I can't think of 'em right now. I just wanna get these in before someone beats me to them!

#8...I know what this is...

I got it! It's "Call Me" by Blondie!


Assuming my above answers are right, I have used up my limit.

Not what I had in mind for #25, but the other two are correct! Feel free to take another stab at one.

Now that I think about it, the actual line from "Jumper" is "I never thought it would come to this."


Okay...I've got one that I'm certain is right:

#15: "Just Like Heaven" by The Cure.
