Selling My Books on the Streets of Brooklyn 11/30 - Rock Quiz 2

It’s time for Rock Quiz 2. The following snippets from songs precede chapters in my as yet unpublished, near 200,000 word rock n roll epic, Rising Star. Degree of difficulty in parenthesis, geared to the average rock fan. Name the artist and song. Answers at the end of the blog.
11. "...Happiness I cannot feel/And love to me is so unreal...."* (8)
12. "...Gettin' crazy anticiptin'...."* (8)
13. "...Show must go on...."* (2)
14. "...In ever thing I do I take complete control...."* (10)
15. "...Whip it good...."* (1)
16. "...Been a long time crossing...."* (8)
17. "...Rush, rush, rush to the ye yo."* (6)
18. "...Out there is a fortune waiting to be had/If you think I'll let it go you're mad...."* (7)
19. "...Love is a banquet from which we feed....* (9)
20. "...Nothing changes on New Year's Day...."* (1)



Even though I sold only one book today, it was a lucky session. Since there wasn't any wind, the lack of sunshine made no difference in the temperature, so I was comfortable the entire time. And just as I'd finished packing up, Bad News Billy rolled up in his car and helped me haul the crates, perfect timing on a day when my back was not 100%. Fortunately, it feels a lot better than it did yesterday. Thanks, my friend, and to the gentleman who grossly overpaid for the hardcover thriller.

And the answers are:
11. Black, Sabbath, Paranoid.
12. Boston, Rock n Roll Band.
13. Queen.
14. Lene Lovitch, Lucky Number.
15. Devo.
16. Robin Trower, Bridge of Sighs.
17. Blondie, Rush, Rush.
18. Judas Priest, You’ve Got Another Thing Comin’.
19. Bruce Springsteen/Patti Smith, Because the Night.
20. U2, New Year’s Day.
To anyone who got all ten, I'm impressed. #14 would sink most folks.
