I am cooler than Alex Brown, eigentlich.

Alex Brown did this, but mine will be better. So ha!

Go through your itunes and write down the first line of the first 25 songs that come up on random. THEN, people guess the songs. Nifty.

1. I walked around for hours, two ten pence pieces in my hand ( Read more... )

I recognize some of them but can't place them, and like the sound of some of them but never heard them before.

But 13 is definitely Sufjan's "Alone With You."

To Be Alone With You, actually. But you are correct. Andy Best FTW!

...That was my first inclination. I have a tendency to tack on extra words to song titles, so I wasn't certain.

Hurray! (Hope you're doing well, BTW.)

It's just like a Brit to get the three Smiths songs.

Did you know I visited your city in February? It was lovely. Too bad we didn't get a cider together :(

2. The Smiths - Hand in Glove
6. Kings of Convenience - Cayman Islands
11. The Smiths - There is a Light That Never Goes Out
14. Camera Obscura - Dory Previn
17. The Unicorns - Tuff Ghost

Whoo, knocked a 1/5 of the songs (or I'm pretty confident that I did). Being your wifie and all, I should be able to do this. #12 is killing me though...I know it's some New Pornographers song, but I don't know which one! AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
