Don’t mind atoll Spoons. Yall gonna have to quote the snippet you’re guessing though. The numbering scheme has gone whacky.

#22

Oh wait-- the numbering scheme is alive and well! I dunno what I’m talking about.

19 is Piano Man.
21 is Rapture

#23

Correct on number 19, Biggirl, but not on number 21. Unless there are two songs with that phrase, of course.

I’ll add a few more words to number 8; perhaps they will jog someone’s memory:

“She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running like a watercolor in the rain.”

#24

18-Nights in white satin: The Moody Blues
20-Killing me softly with his song

#25

And Threadkiller is correct with numbers 18 and 19.

#26

Guess on #8:
Time Passages

#27
