One Direction - I know they exist because you mentioned them when you said you and the Imp-ettes went lusting after them, but aside from that, and since I don't have daughters, I have no idea what they sing. It'd be all news to me.
One Tin Soldier (The Legend of Billy Jack) - Coven

Been listening to a lot of Evanescence lately due to BP's new found love of them. Funny thing - LX was big into the band when she was the exact same age as BP is now and I got her their debut album for her on her birthday (she went dressed as Amy Lee for "dress as a famous person" day at school that year). LX's "Fallen" CD has long been worn out, but BP's friend got BP a new copy for her birthday.
I always skipped over the song "Hello" when the first child left the CD in my car for weeks on end; the song was too slow for my tastes then, and so different from the rest of the songs on the CD. This time around, it's become one of my favorites, despite it being a very sad song about the death of Amy Lee's sister. Striped down of guitars and drums, with only a piano to accompany her, Lee's amazing and haunting vocals really shine through.
from "Hello" by Evanescence
Playground school bell rings again Rain clouds come to play again Has no one told you she's not breathing? Hello, I'm your mind giving you someone to talk to Hello

It's amazing how that happens Phalon - how a song can affect you when you hear it at the right moment.
Hello (Is It Me You're Looking For) - Lionel Richie
I've been alone with you Inside my mind And in my dreams I've kissed your lips A thousand times I sometimes see you Pass outside my door Hello! Is it me you're looking for? I can see it in your eyes I can see it in your smile You're all I've ever wanted And my arms are open wide 'cause you know just what to say And you know just what to do And I want to tell you so much I love you
Next: Love

I just realized - you got to use 'bother' twice! What? Finding unique words too much a bother? This is still a favorite.
