Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random.
Step 2: Post the first line(s) from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarassing the song.
Step 3: Post and let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.

Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!

LOL Actually, the Counting Crows song you're thinking of (which I love!) is a remake of the original. It's "Big Yellow Taxi" by Joni Mitchell. Good job on all the rest! :-)

Birdhouse in your Soul... 1_acme_journal April 19 2006, 21:19:58 UTC
I thought the first line was, "I'm you're only friend, I'm not you're only friend, but I'm a little glowing friend, but really I'm not actually your friend but I am..."

You are probably right....still, I've always thought of that as an "intro" and not part of the main body of the song...

So...any guesses for the other lyrics?

3 sounds really familiar, but I'll be darned if I can think of the song title or artist at the moment...I'm guessing it's a woman?

Whether is Joni or the Counting Crows, when I first heard the song, I spent the first two months hearing the words "fucking light" instead of "parking lot". Am I alone in this?

LOL A fucking light? That conjures a disturbing image...

Yes, exactly why I didn't like the song when it first started playing!

Have you ever been to the "Misheard Lyrics" website? Some of the things people hear are hysterical!
