He plays Billy Bragg and a bit of Green Day, and I'm so bored of the USA

It's Thursday! That's, like, practically Friday and thus sounds like a good time for a lyrics quiz.

Simple scoring system: one point for every correct song-title. You can go for extra credit and add the artist if you want, but it will only gain you honour and glory. Please note: correct title. There is a link between all the songs in the quiz, I'm sure you'll work it out.

Responses from my stringent beta-testing and product-development team (or ChrisC, as he's also known) suggest the quiz has come out rather more difficult than intended, but we'll give it a whirl...

Oops, didn't fill in Feelgood Hit of the Summer. Not that that would make my score much less feeble! Tough quiz…

Did you know that if you click on the poll link above (text "Poll #1834706") and choose "Fill Out Poll" you can edit your answers?

Not that it really matters, I just thought perhaps you weren't aware of it :)

Actually I tried that. But rather than offering me my existing answers, it instead offered me a completely blank quiz. And I couldn't be bothered to retype all the ones that I had managed to get…

Boo hiss, so it does. I'm pretty sure it didn't used to do that.

It (fsvo 'it', presumably Firefox rather than LJ) offered them to me as autocomplete options but didn't fill them in by default.
It also offered 'One of its legs is both the same' as an option for #2.

I should think that that was Firefox - I've got that option turned off, because very occasionally it used to offer me my credit card details :)

I wonder why it picked that bit about the duck for #2 but not the others.

… and I still can't see the link, after looking at the answers. Gah! Curse you, venta.

You haven't, by any chance, cursed me with hail and torrential rain, have you?
