The bandwagon looked a bit crowded, so I'm jogging behind

[sweet_anise]

I'm not usually a huge meme fan, but this one (and the shipping one, which I'm sure I'll post soon) looked like a lot of fun. I decided to wait a few days after the rush so that people would be more likely to take the time to participate. :)

Stolen from at least 75% of my flist.

Wait. Hold on.

Wait a moment.

Wait.

No, brain not wrapping around it yet. I'm going to go walk around till the alcohol and chemistry gets out of my brain and maybe I'll get past the first initial. Moment of surpriseincredualitywhatever.

[sweet_anise]

Um... what is there to wrap your brain around? We have basically the same music library; I would have thought this would be easy for you.

(Actually, my original plan was to make you wait 24 hours before answering, because you'll probably get all of them and no one else will have a chance. Maybe you could just answer in shifts of 10 instead, or something?)

Alternatively, you could just sleep, because clearly your handle on reality is not in the best shape right now.

[giallarhorn]

No, I was talking about the whole new account thing

[sweet_anise]

Everything on this meme should be in your library-- it's all songs I've had for awhile.

So you get #9, 14, 16... and I'll give you 25 and 28, I guess, even though you didn't fully answer either.

You're so close on so many others, though!

1) I swear I know the name, but I can't remember the artist! So I'll give someone else a shot. (Gah, what is her last name???)

3) Don't Stop Believing by Journey!

4) The Thunder Rolls, by Garth Brooks.

8) Leave Out All The Rest, by Linkin Park.

11) The Logical Song, by Supertramp!

18) Bittergreen, by Gordon Lightfoot.

21) If I Die Young, by the Band Perry.

22) Livin' On A Prayer, by Bon Jovi.

23) Ooh ooh ooh it's the Ireland song! What's it called and what was that guy's name, aw SHOOT...

24) All I Ask Of You -- Phantom of the Opera

[sweet_anise]

Clearly, I should have made you wait until the end, too. (Assuming anybody else comments on this) :)

You were my one hope for 23! Oh, well, maybe by some crazy chance somebody will get it. (Although I think people often consider it not cheating to confirm details with itunes, as long as google isn't used? I'm not sure.)

Otherwise, all correct :)

17. I Can Do Better Than That!

[sweet_anise]

Yay Savannah! (I know you know the source, so I'm giving you credit even though you didn't mention it.)

Also, I'm trying to move all my LJ activity to this account, so I friended you so that I can see your entries on my friends page without having to log out and back in to my old account. If you friend me back, then I'll be able to read your f-locked posts, too. :) (There's probably an option to have my posts on this account not appear on your friends page, if you're worried about that.)

The only one I know off the top of my head that hasn't already been guessed (grr) is:
27. Wanted by Vanessa Carlton

[sweet_anise]

But it's correct! Yay! (And it's one that I worried no one would get, so that's worth something.)

[jessicaqueen]

Ah, well, I quite liked Vanessa Carlton in my angsty teenage years, before I got over that overly mournful style of singing (for reference, I also liked Sarah McLachlan). I'm kind of surprised I remember it, though.

5. Just That Good by... The Calling, I think?
26. What If The Storm Ends? by Snow Patrol
30. Crying Lightning by Arctic Monkeys

[sweet_anise]

Yes, yes, yes!
