12. The Bird--The Time Oh ee oh ee oh! ;D 3.5

LOL, I think you are thinking of "Jungle Love" which you omitted. "The Bird" is the one that goes "Squaaaak! Halellujia! Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh"... uh, yeah...
Oh--and you haven't heard the "Get Away" part at the end of "Hard To Say I'm Sorry"? It's cool, you should listen to it if you can. 8)
And I made a mistake on #19--I actually meant "Lights" by Journey, not Fleetwood Mac. :)
Billy--is there a Fleetwood Mac song called "Lights" too?

I have the song in my collection, but "Get Away" is not part of the title. :-/

In that case I'll go back and add it again. :D

Yeah, I don't know most of these songs, but I was told to fill this out, so I will to be nice (and also because it's a way to procrastinate...still have that paper to finish for tomorrow).
1. Ice Cream Castles--The Time never heard
2. Miss Independent--Kelly Clarkson 4; it was fun to sing along to on my way to and from work this summer
3. Hot Legs--Rod Stewart 1.5, just because I'm not even sure if I've heard of it
4. One Of These Nights--The Eagles never heard I don't think?!
5. Privilege--Incubus 2
6. Somebody--Bryan Adams never heard I don't think
7. Show Me The Way--Styx I keep forgetting how this one goes because whenever I see this song title I always think of the song that goes, "I want yooooooouuuuu, to show me the waaa-haaay!" So I have no clue how this one goes.
8. I Don't Wanna Go On With You Like That--Elton John 3.5; I prefer his older stuff more
9. This Kiss--Faith Hill 4
10. Good For Me--Amy Grant 4.5; awww, I had forgotten about how much I loved this song. Now I feel like I'm ten again. :)
11. Hard to Say I'm Sorry/Get Away--Chicago 2
12. The Bird--The Time never heard
13. Crocodile Rock--Elton John 5; how can you NOT like this song? :)
14. Off My Line--The Spin Doctors never heard
15. Misunderstanding--Genesis don't recognize
16. Sexy and Seventeen--Stray Cats never heard
17. Change The World--Eric Clapton 1
18. Major Tom (Coming Home)--Peter Schilling I'm not for certain how this goes so I better not rate it
19. Lights--Journey 2.5
20. Hold On--Santana not sure if I know this one
21. In Too Deep--Genesis 2
22. In My Room--The Beach Boys 3
23. Puttin' On The Ritz--Taco 4, only because it's a cool Irving Berlin song, not because of the musical prodigy that is Taco.
24. Orionco Flow--Enya 1.5; reminds me of the Pure Moods commercials that would come on every ten seconds when I was younger.
25. Jungle Love--The Time never heard

Feeling a bit guilty as I haven't rated any of lebiew's lists for a while...let's rectify that immediately...
3. Hot Legs - Rod Stewart 3 - noisy little racket from Roderick...the flip (over here) 'I Was Only Joking' was better...
4. One Of These Nights - Eagles 5 - cool song...love that intro!
6. Somebody - Bryan Adams 3 - reasonable, but not essential...
7. Show Me The Way - Styx 3 - ...as was this...
8. I Don't Wanna Go On With You Like That - Elton John 3 - ...and this too...
11. Hard To Say I'm Sorry/Get Away - Chicago 4 - lovely song which put the band in our top flight for the first time since 1976! Although good in its own way, 'Get Away' doesn't really do much as a whole...a bit like the long version of 'Layla'...
13. Crocodile Rock - Elton John 5 - much better stuff from Elton...a loving and respectful tribute to sounds of a bygone era...marvellous...
15. Misunderstanding - Genesis 4 - fine, strutting radio-friendly number...
16. (She's) Sexy & 17 - Stray Cats 4 - last big one from Brian and Co...good rocker which also harkened back to a bygone era...
17. Change The World - Eric Clapton 2 - completely lodged in the 'safe' department...disappointing...
18. Major Tom (Coming Home) - Peter Schilling 4 - rather odd German thing with vague lyrics...absolutely huge everywhere in Europe, bar here...
20. Hold On - Santana 3 - reasonable enough 'dancefloor'-ish effort...and that's about it...
21. In Too Deep - Genesis 3 - reasonable enough slushy effort...and that's about it as well...
22. In My Room - Beach Boys 4 - strange one this...the song, on its own, is fairly average...but its the way it's dressed up to the eyeballs in harmony that makes it work...
23. Puttin' On The Ritz - Taco 1 - another piece of Euro-fluff...horrible! This was released here no less than three times, but we still wouldn't fall for it...!
24. Orinoco Flow - Enya 3 - moody, echo-laden thing with big slabs of orchestra attached...okay for the first few listens, but rapidly becomes tiresome...
Yep! Quite a selection there, lebiew!
