strange meme
1.Shuffle your playlist.
2. Of the first 30 songs that come up, no matter how embarassing, put your favourite lyric on your LJ. Try not to include the title.
3. Open season to your f-list to see who can guess the most songs.
4. Strike the songs off as they are guessed correctly.
5. Mock severely those whose tase does not coincide with yours.
That took quite a while actually. Enjoy!

- We're all one big family
Throughout the cities and the towns
We don't reach for handouts
we reach for those who are down - You made me forget myself.
I thought I was someone else,
Someone good.
Perfect Day - Lou Reed -- kudos to harrismint - I should'a quit you, long time ago
I should'a quit you, baby, long time ago
I should'a quit you, and went on to Mexico - You'll find him anywhere
On a bus, in a bar, in a grocery store.
He'll say "Excuse me, haven't I seen you somewhere before?" - You cannot change a mother's love for her child
With the ill you bring
You're sending gifts that nobody wants
With the cool fresh winds of spring - The city's lookin' like a ghost town
On a moonless summer night - If your life is a rough bed of brambles and nails
And your spirit's a slave to man's whips and man's jails
Where you thirst and you hunger for justice and right
And your heart is the pure flame of man's constant night - There's a church beside a park
And it fills the dying dark
With five strokes
There it is again
Did you hear that?"
5am in Amsterdam - Michelle Shocked -- harrismint again - Across the street, avoid the freeze
The city's warm by couple of degrees - I can swear there ain't no heaven but I pray there ain't no hell.
Now troubles are many, they're as deep as a well. - There must have been some magic in
that old silk they found,
for when they placed it on his head,
he began to dance around
Frosty The Snowman - Bing Crosby -- snottygrrl - I wrapped the towel around me
Then I opened up the door - Love of two is one
Here but now they're gone
Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't go on - We are taking it easy
Bright and breezy, yeah
We are living it up
So Young - The Corrs -- labellementeuse strikes! - Languid mandalla of the ceiling fan
Teases the air like a slow stroking hand - She gives him loving that his body can't handle
But all he can say is baby it's good to me
Waterfalls - TLC labellementeuse got the title, so I'll give it to her - We ate the sacred mushroom
And waded in the water
Howling like coyotes
At the naked moon
Golden Feather - Robbie Robertson -- big_ted - Mary was married with children
Had the perfect suburban life
'Til her husband came clean with the help of Jim Beam
And he confessed all his sins one night - Big Jim the Chief stood for law and order
He called for the guard to come and surround the border
Smackwater Jack - Carole King -- harrismint comes back for another pass - Flames from the refinery rise broken, red and riveting
And the high vault of heaven looks far away and cold - Where you go, I will follow.
'Til I win your love again
And walk beside you, - Jandals to the pavement, coco urban dialects
Sky scrappers transform, to palm trees from the islands
Head phones attached with the bunga flax pack
Vibing out the fresh connection by word of mouth
FOB - Nesian Mystik -- go, harrismint, go! (with labellementeuse close behind - I wanna get married on a night in June
and rock n roll by the light of the silvery moon - Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell the truth
Sweet Home Alabama- Lynyrd Skynyrd -- big_ted - I live among the creatures of the night
I haven't got the will to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I'll just believe it
That tomorrow never comes - You were caught on the cross fire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter, come on you stranger,
you legend, you martyr, and shine
Shine on you Crazy Diamond (Part 1) - Pink Floyd -- big_ted - She stares up at the stars when,
The stars fell from her heaven,
I bent down to collect her,
And then she was gone, - Lean and hungry with a fire in your eyes
I'll play catch up, you can show me where it's at - Everybody wants to touch somebody
If it takes all night.
Everybody wants to take a little chance,
Make it come out right.
Heartache Tonight - Eagles -- harrismint once more - Took away our native tongue
And taught their English to our young
And all the beads we made by hand
Are nowadays made in Japan
The Lament Of The Cherokee Reservation Indian - Don Fardon -- <big_ted
(except it's NOT Paule Revere and the Raiders, so there :-p )
That took quite a while actually. Enjoy!
