We'll start off this first of an occasional series of trivia questions with some lyrics from songs my ipod threw at me on my way home from work today.  We're looking for artist and song title....or half a point for each.  I'm hoping to have various categories so you'll have a chance even if music isn't your thing.

1.  "Right now, she's probably up singing
some white-trash version of Shania karaoke."

2.  "She had a million dollars worth of nickels and dimes.  
She sat around and counted them all a million times"

3.  "You wrung me out
too too too many times"

4.  "You're so 1990,
And it's 1994.
Leave this world behind me
'Cause you don't want me anymore."

5.  "You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes are all worn down"

6. "Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way"

7. "If you think holding hands is all in the fingers
Grab hold of the soul where the memory lingers and
Make sure to never do it with the singer
'Cause he'll tell everyone in the world"

8. "What you wanna ball with the kid?

trying to do what I did"
