20 songs meme!
First lines, name the song, google is cheating, etc. Tweaked slightly to get rid of instrumentals and obscure things I have but don't know myself.

1. I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay / Ain't it sad w_wellington
2. I hear the drizzle of the rain / Like a memory it falls / Soft and warm continuing /

p.s. You like good music. (:

You did make 17 up I'm afraid, but otherwise you're right on. Nature Boy is the Bowie version from Moulin Rouge, but it's not like you can tell that from the lyrics. And thanks. :D
