Step 1: Put your media player on random
Step 2: Post the first line(s) of the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post and let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.
1. "There's nought but care on ev'ry han', In every hour that passes, O"
2. "Long ago, in another galaxy there lived a gloomy robot"
3. "Here you sit in your high backed chair. Wonder how the view is from there."
4. "Though my carriage be but careless, Though my looks be of the sternest, Yet my passions are compareless: When I love, I love in earnest"
5. "There's trouble on the subway. There's something on the track."
6. "It's six am and the sun is getting high. Picks up the mail from the slot."
7. "When they poured across the border I was cautioned to surrender, this I could not do; I took my gun and vanished."
8. "As I went out one evening, despite my loves protests. I came upon a tavern where I thought I'd take my rest."
9. "Just let me be. Don't pretend we are friends."
10. "When we're working nights, the village round the old church becomes scary town."
11. "Maybe if he had dumped me with a note left on my car, or pretended to leave town after playing hacky-sack with my heart."
12. "One night I dreamt of you; I fell in love with you, under the starry sky."
13. "She might fool them, but she don't fool me. She talks much to earnestly."
14. "Oh my baby baby, I love you more than I can tell. I don't think I can live without you."
15. "Everything's a lie. We're all going to die."
16. "Someone tell me why, I do things that I don't want to do."
17. "Didn't I get you everything you asked for? Didn't always answer to your call?"
18. "Line them up and move them in. It's time for killing to begin. String the up and hose them down."
19. "It was an early morning yesterday. I was up before the dawn."
20. "Pale against the sun. My world is slowly dissolving."
21. "And I won't take from you. Don't you know 'bout a zillion years ago some star sneezed, now they're paging you in reception."
22. "Every single day I walk down the street, I hear people say 'Baby' so sweet."
-lissa510 Take Me or Leave Me - Rent
23. "I sit in a church where Beethoven played. I'm not looking for God, unless he can pay."
-milissent Taxi Girl - The Neilds
24. "So Papa's got a brand new bag. What's the big deal? Up in the Bronx, Mary's gettin' drunk"
25. "There were 87 Advil in the bottle now there's 30 left. I ate 47 so what happened to the other 10?"
-anglicub Till My Head Falls Off - They Might Be Giants
It took 50 tracks to get these - the rest were either instrumental pieces or had the title in the first line.
