I've never even heard this song, but I know I saw it on your chart for a long time, and since I don't recognize the lyrics...
20. 30 Seconds To Mars- "Edge Of The Earth"

Yeah, that's the one. Although, come to think about it, those lyrics would fit very well in a song called "Despot".
And going into the last round, the scores are:
insect2: 22 Mega 248: 20 halo20: 15 Howiedayfan: 12 BlahBlahBlah: 9 Matt4319: 8 irice22: 3 chebingeo: 3 FreakyFlyBry: 1
Now, to start working on that last round. If you're reading this now, don't bother staying up waiting, because I probably won't be done tonight, and the answers are going to be sent through Private Message anyway, so being first won't give you an advantage.

So, at long last, here are the final ten clues. They aren't going to be easy at face value, but hey, there's now only 10 songs left that these possibly could be. And that'll be reduced with every one you figure out.
If you think you know any of these, send the answers to me in a PRIVATE MESSAGE. This way, it doesn't matter who's first; all that matters is who's right. If somebody ruins things by posting their answers here, feel free to steal their answers if you sense that they're correct.
Round Ten[/color][/u]
10. So beautiful
9. The thoughts
8. I knew
7. You won't
6. You can
5. Long ago
4. He said
3. To her
2. You can't
1. Be found
Since you're basically guessing right now, I'll give two points for all songs placed in the correct position at this time, so the most you can get out of this round is 21. No one who has participated is mathematically eliminated yet. Good luck!

Oh man, I so knew that 30 Seconds to Mars one. Yeah, I was expecting you to be the one to get that one too, since I remember it doing fairly well on your chart. You just picked the wrong time to go out of town, I guess.

So what exactly is permitted? Obviously, looking up lyrics to songs I know are in your top 10 isn't. Is listening to the songs specifically to hear for lyrics in your clues ok?

So is there a deadline? Or is it just when all ten songs have been correctly guessed?

Well, obviously not as well as it did on yours. It spent 8 weeks on my chart and peaked at #33. "Capricorn" snuck in the top 20 for a week though.

So what exactly is permitted? Obviously, looking up lyrics to songs I know are in your top 10 isn't. Is listening to the songs specifically to hear for lyrics in your clues ok? Well, ideally that's the way I'd like it to be done. The point of the round isn't based on knowledge of the lyrics, but to know what the last 10 songs are going to be (from following my chart throughout the year), and to figure out how to place them in the correct order using vague, but unique lyrics from each song. If you can't figure out what the last 10 will be, you probably won't do very well because you can't run these lyrics into a search engine and have it turn up the right song. I'll make an arbitrary deadline of a week from this Tuesday (3/2), or until all the contenders say they're answers are final. I'll probably give more time upon request, if needed. The game will continue until no songs remain unguessed by everyone. Well, 8 weeks on your chart is about the same as 20 weeks on mine, so that's actually not too bad.

Any chance the deadline could be pushed back to at least Friday?

Sure, take as long as you need. I don't have anymore lists to make until next January, so I'd like to have it done by then.

Alright, I guess it's time to go ahead and finish this off.
The top ten that we were looking for is as follows:
10. Pulse Ultra - Despot (#5 peak, 32 weeks, 846 points) 9. Evanescence - Going Under (#2 peak, 27 weeks, 898 points) 8. Pharrell (featuring Jay-Z) - Frontin' (4 weeks at #1, 25 weeks [in 2003], 919 points) 7. AFI - The Leaving Song Pt II (3 weeks at #1, 23 weeks [in 2003], 926 points) 6. Dave Matthews Band - Grey Street (2 weeks at #1, 28 weeks [in 2003], 940 points) 5. Audioslave - Like A Stone (#5 peak, 31 weeks, 989 points) 4. Transplants (featuring Son Doobie) - Diamonds And Guns (9 weeks at #1, 28 weeks [in 2003], 1007 points) 3. Finch - What It Is To Burn (#2 peak, 32 weeks, 1038 points) 2. Evanescence (featuring Paul McCoy) - Bring Me To Life (5 weeks at #1, 32 weeks [in 2003], 1193 points) 1. AFI - Girl's Not Grey (5 weeks at #1, 44 weeks, 1335 points)
Now to see how these responses went:
score: 8/10
Score: 6/10 (+1 for being the only one with all the right songs)
Score: 9/10
Score: 8/10
Score: 2/2
Score: 1/1 (and everything I expected... ;))
