The long-overdue Round 6!
Oct. 14th, 2008 07:58 pmI usually wait to do this until I do a massive update of my iPod but I can't do that very easily at the moment. I just felt like doing this again anyway! Shuffled at work but was a good girl and didn't post there :) Some of these are hard. Happy guessing!
Step 1. Put your playlist on random.
Step 2. Post the first line from the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3. Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly. NO GOOGLING.
I'm skipping songs that have been featured previously and, to copy
queen_meep, songs by the same artist as well.
1. "He's laughing with another girl and playing with another heart" "Smooth Operator" by Sade. Guessed by

Hey, how are you doing?

Date: 2008-10-15 05:09 am (UTC)You know, I wouldn't have known "Smooth Operator" if I were playing this. I never really listened to the first line before.
Do one! I love driving myself crazy trying to guess songs.
I'm good, not as irritated as I was when I posted this, more sleepy now. I'll be asleep the whole time you're at work, pretty much :) Have a good day!
And here's that icon again since it amused you. Hee!

Date: 2008-10-15 01:17 pm (UTC)I may have cheated on others similarly. *cough* But only when I know the song!And it is the Skeeter Davis version that I have, haven't heard any others :)no subject
Date: 2008-10-15 07:50 pm (UTC)I only have Skeeter cuz she's on the "Girl Interrupted" soundtrack. There's another song up there from that soundtrack (another oldie!) - hint hint. My iPod fails at picking diverse songs while shuffling. I had to get up to song #45 to complete my 25-song set following the "rules".
There's also a Godsmack song up there! (I don't think it's a real popular one though?) I believe I still have some Disturbed on here but it didn't come up for this round. (look how helpful I am!)
Ludicris! (Ludakris? however it's spelled) Really? THAT impresses me.

Didn't know many of these. Though, I did know a couple of the ones already guessed.

I'm sad that I didn't get the Snow Patrol song. It's one that's always on mine.
