This week's Sesame Street Monday game is brought to you by the letter N. As usual, the odd numbered songs have N titles, and the even numbered songs have N artists. Be nice, be naughty, or even just be neutral. I don't care.

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...


1. I was a little too tall
Could've used a few pounds
Tight pants points hardly renown

2. No one knows how I feel
What I say unless you read between my lines
One man walked away from me
First he took my hand, take me home

3. How do you feel? I'm lonely
What do you think? Can't think at all
What you gonna do? Gonna live my life

4. Take your time, hurry up
Choice is yours, don't be late

5. Well, everybody's talking and no one says a word
Everybody's making love and no one really cares
There's matches in the bathroom, just below the stairs

6. People came from miles around
Everyone was there
Yoko brought her walrus
There was magic in the air

7. I got no friends 'cause they read the papers
They can't be seen with me and I'm gettin' real shot down
And I'm feeling mean

8. Baby, I know it makes you sad
But when they're handin' out the heartaches
You know you got to have you some

9. I saw her today, I saw her face, it was a face I loved, and I knew
I had to run away, and get down on my knees and pray that they'd go away

10. So take it off like your home alone
You know dance in front your mirror while your on the phone
Checkin your reflection and tellin your best friend,
like "girl I think my butt gettin big"

11. It says turn around you fool
You know you love him more
And more
Tell me why is it so?

12. Wake up, kids
We got the dreamers disease
Age fourteen, they got you down on your knees
So polite, we're busy still saying please

5. Well, everybody's talking and no one says a word

Nobody Told Me - John Lennon (I still remember there being a shit-ton of buzz about this song when it was released in early 1984. I remember flipping through the radio dials one time, and three or four stations were playing it at the same time, not simultaneously. It not only wasn't a number one hit in its day, it's practically forgotten today. Such a shame, as I love it and its weird music video...)

6. People came from miles around
Everyone was there
Yoko brought her walrus
There was magic in the air
Garden Party - Rick(y) Nelson (That this lyric was paired with the song above was a coincidence... unlike a pair of pairs in today's game...)

7. I got no friends 'cause they read the papers
They can't be seen with me and I'm gettin' real shot down
And I'm feeling mean
No More Mr. Nice Guy - Alice Cooper (Another song I hear a lot while I'm trying to sleep on my lunch hour at work...)

8. Baby, I know it makes you sad
But when they're handin' out the heartaches
You know you got to have you some
Queen of Hearts - Juice Newton (Glad nobody answered Dave Edmunds to this, who had the hit version in the British Isles where Juice Newton is unknown...)

9. I saw her today, I saw her face, it was a face I loved, and I knew
I had to run away, and get down on my knees and pray that they'd go away
Needles and Pins - Searchers and others

10. So take it off like your home alone
You know dance in front your mirror while your on the phone
Checkin your reflection and tellin your best friend,
like "girl I think my butt gettin big"
Hot in Herre - Nelly (When I did my Top 30 Weird Al parodies countdown a couple years ago on my blog, I surprised myself by choosing "Trash Day" over "Word Crimes" as my favorite Weird Al song parody...)

11. It says turn around you fool
You know you love him more
And more
Tell me why is it so?
Never Can Say Goodbye - Jackson 5 (meh), Gloria Gaynor (good), The Communards (best!)

12. Wake up, kids
We got the dreamers disease
Age fourteen, they got you down on your knees
So polite, we're busy still saying please
You Get What You Give - New Radicals (I remember thinking this was U2 when it was getting played all the time on Mix 93.7 in 1999...)


Image Bonus: N is for...

This one was difficult without a standout image. BiT might've won, especially since his prediction that others would use it was incorrect... however, I think that's been an IB and maybe even an IBB winner before. When I looked at all the images again, I found I got an extra laugh from Search's Knights that say Ni. Having never seen the source material, I was having fun imagining it in my mind.... so Ni gets the IBB.
