I think this is quite hard.
Here are a couple of lines from 10 songs, two songs each from the 1950's, 60', 70's, 80's, 90's and 2000's
each song was a 'hit' in the UK, I'm assuming that most were also hits in the US
PM me with your song titles, good luck...

Hey goombah, I love a how you dance a rhumba

You saw me kissin' your sister, you saw me holdin' her hand
But if you snitch to your mother, your father won't understand

But if you love him you'll forgive him,

Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain

There is good and bad in everyone

Started a diet, got a manicure
Erased your number from the telephone

My dad's probably had a bloody hard day

I've had a couple of replies both got 100% however, one reply only answered 50% of the questions ;D
This was the hardest I've ever done and I think I was VERY lucky with some of the answers 8)
I will have to cheat and look up the newer ones. Well some of them. Sadly singing to myself gave me a few answers of the oldies.
Wow! I managed to get two and cheated on the rest. The two that I got were from the 50s and 60s - I'm only 33!
