#9 is a U2 song. I just can't figure out which one it is.

Wanna mark the other ones I already figured out? (You didn't have to give #13 away in the other thread; I'd have gotten to it eventually, or someone else would've.)

Yeah, I'm just not thinking clearly (hence I messed up the lyrics on my own meme). Too tired, need sleep.

DOH! I was thinking of that song when trying to identify #9, and I even went so far as to look up its lyrics in the hopes of verifying my guess. Then I realized I was wrong and came up with "Wire", but why did I not realize that "Two Hearts" was one of the other clues?

That would be correct. I don't know if it's a cover or not, but that's the recording I have.

4. Just three miles from the rest stop

Matchbox Twenty, "Rest Stop"

7. Chasing the sounds of lullabies that echo, that entwine

Since Danny was indecisive, I'll guess Jars of Clay, "Shipwrecked".

13. Remember the time we died in the garden

Macrosick, "We Never Started". Didn't that come up in another thread, or am I imagining things?

The bands are correct, know the song titles?

I have no idea. Sad guessing the clues for the band names was fun though. I tried to think of the planet one but didn't think I had heard of the band. finally googled and nope, I didn't know it.
