I had been thinking about this for a while, so I'm writing it now:)

Rate the songs themselves, not just the particular artists' versions.

11.  Kiss Me - Sixpence None the Richer (1999) 4
12.  Love Me Tender - Elvis Presley (1950's) 0... I hate Elvis >:(.
13.  Manic Monday - Bangles (1986) 2
15.  One Headlight - Wallflowers (1996) 4
17.  Quit Playing Games - Backstreet Boys (1997) 3
18.  Rhythm Is Gonna Get You - Gloria Estefan (1986) 1 I hate Gloria Estefan
19.  Super Mario Bros. Main level music - composed by Koji Kondo (1985) Well, it's fine, but gets annoying after awhile... 3 I guess
20.  Take My Breath Away - Berlin (1986) 4
21.  Unbelievable - Nat King/Natalie Cole (one version in 1991) 1
22.  Venus - Shocking Blue/Bananarama (1970/1986) You can't just put these two versions together like this.  Shocking Blue, who actually had a good version, gets a 4.5.  Bananarama, on the other hand, is a group that has no talent and deserves a big fat zero for this piece of crud.
23.  We Are the Champions - Queen (1978 ) 4
24.  Xanadu - Olivia Newton-John (1980) 2
25.  Yummy Yummy Yummy - Ohio Express (1960's) 1.5

I fixed the list.

I apologize for all the mistakes.  This was made at night and I wanted to fight the sleepiness :-[  

Let that be a lesson to anyone else who wants to do the same :P

I also decided to change the H song:

08.  Horse With No Name - America (1972)

Rate either if you wish.
