End of round 2!

Okay, that's long enough. Here's the ones that people couldn't guess:

1. This is the story of a country girl, back in town from her country house ... Air - Wonder Milky Bitch (when you add in the following lines - "She came to me with her muddy boots, she destroyed all my carpets" - you have one of my all-time favourite lyrics)

4. I have a friend, he's mostly made of pain ... Bright Eyes - From a Balance Beam

5. I know I come to you only when in need ... Sleater-Kinney - Sympathy

7. I'm mixing business with leather ... Beck - Mixed Bizness (doctor_k_ guessed the artist)

9. I don't want to die in a foreign place or disappear without a trace ... Ned Collette - Show Your Hand

11. Won't you go down old Hannah? Well, well, well ... Jackie-O Motherfucker - Go Down, Old Hannah

13. The blow came down from the hills ... The Microphones - The Glow (ataxi guessed the artist)

15. Sometimes life surprises, because you never expect it to be that ... Built to Spill - Conventional Wisdom
