1. :N The song title I'm after has one word that is different, have another go :)
16. :Y

I wasn't looking for Don't Cry by Guns N' Roses but there's plenty of reverb on the drums so I'll accept. Additional bonus point for anyone who can find the original answer I had on my list (on top of the two guesses).
 
for bonus point ? 16 dont shed a tear paul carrack
 
Another alternative answer
16. Don't Cry - Asia (1990)
 
15. - Broken Wings (Mr. Mister)
17. - All Out Of Love (Air Supply)

This really difficult for me!

I've tried to increase difficulty, but only by a little bit ;)

I didn't realise there was a difficulty setting built into the forum software...are you on level 5 or 6??

Shhh don't tell anyone but with backdoor access to the quiz code I tweaked the settings to allow me to use level 5.5 :ph34r:
 
1. Listen to your heart - Roxette
8. November rain - Guns n' Roses
