can somebody again please help me? my cousin is having her 18th bday this coming nov. 18. and she asked me if i could come up with 18 songs that would fit for her bday.

you see, it's important for her and for almost all other girls having their 18th bday here in my country, which is philippines, because it's kind of symbolic.. like the transition from being a girl to a woman.. like that..

i thought of a couple of songs, but i'm not sure if that fits.. here are some that are perfect for her 18th bday.. or not?

1. everybody's changing - keane

2. first cut is the deepest - sheryl crowe ( mm. you know, the first heartbreak? lol)

3. i-really-don't-have-any-idea-and-i-think-my-brain- cells-aren't-working-and-i'm-having-this-mental- block-or-whatever-therefore-i-can't-think-of-any- so-please-help-me song

please i really need some help.. and also please state your reason on why you thnk it's suited for an 18th bday.. i thank you in advance..

Alice Cooper --- Im Eighteen

This song is basically about the confusion you feel when you turn eighteen, not knowing what you want or where you want to go. But as the song progeresses, the character feels more confident and finally decides he likes being Eighteen.

Lines form on my face and hands
Lines form from the ups and downs
I'm in the middle without any plans
I'm a boy and I'm a man

I'm eighteen
and I don't know what I want
Eighteen
I just don't know what I want
Eighteen
I gotta get away
I gotta get out of this place
I'll go runnin in outer space
Oh yeah

I got a
baby's brain and an old man's heart
Took eighteen years to get this far
Don't always know what I'm talkin' about
Feels like I'm livin in the middle of doubt
Cause I'm

Eighteen
I get confused every day
Eighteen
I just don't know what to say
Eighteen
I gotta get away

Lines form on my face and my hands
Lines form on the left and right
I'm in the middle
the middle of life
I'm a boy and I'm a man
I'm eighteen and I LIKE IT
Yes I like it
Oh I like it
Love it
Like it
Love it
Eighteen!
Eighteen!
Eighteen!
Eighteen and I LIKE IT

I dont think any of them!

Why not songs from your childhood era!

Lets see your 18 so about 1995-99

Hope that helped!
