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've skipped songs featured previously (if I've remembered to!) and also songs by the same artist, so these are 25 different artists. Four of them include the title! And I haven't updated my iPod in ages (it still has Issues) so nothing brand new is on here.

1) "You can call me a sinner, and you can call me a saint." "Like It Or Not" by Madonna, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] lela_s
2) "If I told you he was your brother, we could reminisce. Then you would go about your day." "Beauty of Gray" by Live, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] queen_meep
3) "Look at this, it's me, walking away. Look at you drowning, on display." "Boy in the Well" by R.E.M., guessed by [livejournal.com profile] rocknrollpixie
4) "Take the light, and darken everything around me." "Rise Above This" by Seether, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] albumsontheside
5) "In an ocean of noise, I first heard your voice."
6) "The more you ignore me, the closer I get. You're wasting your time."
7) "Help, I have done it again, I have been here many times before." "Breathe Me" by Sia, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] archerstar
8) "You don't know me, but I know who you are. Mind if I sit down?"
9) "Summertime and the wind is blowing, outside in lower Chelsea, and I don't know what I'm doing in this city." "Motorcycle Driveby" by Third Eye Blind, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] queen_meep
10) "Listen to what you've got (x3) and then you realize that it's nothing."
11) "Avalanche is sullen and too thin. She starves herself to rid herself of sin." "Bleed Like Me" by Garbage, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] rocknrollpixie
12) "Somebody's knockin', should I let him in? Lord, it's the devil, would you look at him!" "Somebody's Knockin'" by Terri Gibbs, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] gizzi1213
13) "I had a dream last night 'cause it looked just like a dream." "Whatever (I Had A Dream)" by Butthole Surfers, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] callita623
14) "So I ran faster, but it caught me here. Yes my loyalties turned, like my ankle in the seventh grade." "Precious Things" by Tori Amos, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] drusilla_malfoy and (close enough!) [livejournal.com profile] callita623
15) "In this proud land we grew up strong, we were wanted all along. I was taught to fight, taught to win...I never thought I could fail." "Don't Give Up" by Peter Gabriel, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] drusilla_malfoy
16) "I won't be the one to disappoint you anymore, and I know I said all this so that you heard it all before." "Love's Not A Competition (But I'm Winning)" by the Kaiser Chiefs, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] rocknrollpixie
17) "When you were here before, couldn't look you in the eye. You're just like an angel, your skin makes me cry." "Creep" by Radiohead, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] elledwen
18) "Didn't hear what you were sayin', I live on raw emotions, baby."
19) "There was a time I packed my dreams away, living in a shell, hiding from myself." "This Is My Now" by Jordin Sparks, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] lela_s
20) "The streets are all violent with murderous excitement, the hunter and the prey are dancing everyday."
21) "Check it out, going out on the late night, looking tight, feeling nice, it's a cock fight" "U + Ur Hand" by Pink, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] lela_s
22) "In parallel sea, what would I be? My first love said to me:
'Tears out for the world to see' "
23) "I, I went to hell, I might as well learn by my mistakes. I at twenty-four was insecure, do whatever it takes." "Wake Up and Smell the Coffee" by the Cranberries, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] rocknrollpixie
24) "There are certain people you just keep coming back to. She is right in front of you."
25) "Late last night I was looking through pictures. Flooded with memories, I lie on the floor and spread them around me like friends at a party."

GO GO GO!

I used to do this meme every couple months. Lately it's been every 6 months. And I'll keep doing it until all 25 songs are guessed in one of the rounds. I doubt it will ever happen! There's always some obscure ones that make it on there.

Of course, people COULD cheat... but my f-list is too noble and honorable for that!

Fiona Love Jordin Sparks so I'd be a bad sister if I didn't know right?

LOL it figures I like the same music a 5-year-old does! Does she like David Archuleta too?

Heh, I'm actually not that crazy about either Archie or Jordin's stuff. David Cook and Daughtry are a bit better, as far as past-Idol music goes. Still not my favorite kind of music tho.

13: Whatever - Butthole Surfers
14: Little Things - Tori Amos

Date: 2009-04-27 07:36 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lumy12.livejournal.com
14 is actually "Precious Things" but since it seems like that's the song you meant, I'll give it to ya! And yep yep, Butthole Surfers. Wonder what ever happened to them.

ah.. i knew i should have pulled it up on my ipod before writing that. i don't know how i got it wrong.
and i only know the other song from the Romeo+Juliet soundtrack.

From: [identity profile] lumy12.livejournal.com
If I saw the lyrics on someone else's post, I'd probably think GUHHHH I KNOW THIS but not think of the name.

And yes, that's where mine comes from too. Yay Romeo + Juliet!

14) Tori Amos: Precious Things
15) Peter Gabriel & Kate Bush: Don't Give Up

Date: 2009-04-27 07:38 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lumy12.livejournal.com
Yesss! Though Kate Bush isn't credited in my version. The man takes all the glory!

Date: 2009-04-27 07:43 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] ascendingflame.livejournal.com
Booh! Is there actually a solo version or is Kate just not credited? AFAIK it's Peter's song (appeared on one of his albums and none of hers), so I guess it's okay. Still... I can't imagine this song without Kate!

Date: 2009-04-27 07:45 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lumy12.livejournal.com
There's definitely a woman singing it, so it's probably her. I think I actually have this CD so hopefully her name would be listed on THERE -- just didn't import into iTunes since it was Peter's CD, I guess!

Number 7 is Breathe Me by Sia. I feel like I should know more of these, but I definitely know that one!

Ding ding ding! Yep!

9. Motorcycle Drive-By by Third Eye Blind

ONLY ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS OF ALL TIME!

*still working on it*

Date: 2009-04-27 09:18 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lumy12.livejournal.com
Yes! Knew you'd get that one!

And there's also the obligatory Live song on there that hasn't been guessed yet. LOL

Date: 2009-04-27 09:25 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] queen-meep.livejournal.com
Ohhh DUUUUUH, I had to look HARD this time, this one isn't a well-known Live song!

#2 "The Beauty of Gray"

From: [identity profile] lumy12.livejournal.com
Good job! Yeah, I don't think it was a single, was it? I love Mental Jewelry.

From: [identity profile] queen-meep.livejournal.com
I don't think it was- I don't think I ever heard it on the radio. If I didn't have all their CD's, I don't think I'd know it. I still failed big time this round, though- because everyone got all the obvious ones before me! LOL

"All the obvious ones"? Hehehe, they're only obvious if you happen to know the song! I think there are a couple easy ones left still, but maybe that's just me :)

Ooooo - I don't have yahoo! :) I have AIM but if I get on it right now I'll never get anything done that I need to get done in the next... 1 hour 55 minutes. Bad enough I keep LJing. Hee!

I'm sure I can find it though! Thank you!

Ahh.. well, good luck! it's a damn hard find.

"Another Late Night" is also a decent album.

Got 'em! Well, I got the album, the song is torrenting now as part of a big mix (it was the only one I could find in the mp3 format) but it should be finished soon. I like what I heard of "The Garden" so far, though nothing compares to "Breathe Me" :)
