(Actually I think lots of ILMers would like this pop rock/quasi-pop-punk TV theme songs just fine.)

Really digging these choices from monotony:

I'll post my last few tomorrow.

There's still time! (Those two were however the only essential ones not already nommed IMO)

That's 15, btw.

Also this "Broken Hearts - Laza Morgan feat. Dillon Francis, Kito and Reija Lee" should read "Laza Morgan - Broken Hearts feat. Dillon Francis, Kito and Reija Lee". Hope that's clear, I'm completely jetlagged today.
