Incorrect, but amusingly so, so thank you.

Yeah, I just double checked. It was the “mine, all mine”, that hooked me, then it was all I could hear.

Subtitle to 5. is, “… but who’s buyin’?”

On the album but not the song (but it’s needed for the theme???)

Is 9 a Beck song? Seems so familiar…

Thanks.
Peace Sells is correct, as I’m sure you know and as I’m also sure Yossarian is pointing out as we speak.
The album is the full thing.

I mean I kinda need the subtitle for my thing to work.

9 is a bit more modern than any Beck song I’d put in a quiz.

25 is fleetwood mac - seven wonders.

And #16 is playing in my head right now, i know the artist but the title is escaping me aaaargh.

Got it! 16 is midnight oil - sometimes
