I found this on Scott-O-Rama and decided I had to do this, it looked like so much fun!
The Rules
Step 1: Put your iPod/MP3 player or iTunes on random.
Step 2: Post the first line(s) from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post it on your blog and let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly and post the title in bold after the stricken song when it is guessed.
Step 5: Looking the lyrics up on Google or any other search engine is cheating! Please play nice!
Also, try and leave your guess in a comment, the shoutbox fills up too fast 🙂

Okay, I’m NOT the best candidate for this meme! My taste in music is currently not at all “mainstreme” and I had to actually remove a lot of songs and leave in the more mainstreme artists people might have half a shot at guessing (right now I’m not sure if I’ll remember half of these songs myself!). I also only have about 600 songs on my iPod right now, many come from multiple albums from one artist. I got a lot of repeats because of this and tried to edit too many repeats out. Below are some of the artists/songs I removed because I didn’t think anyone would guess them. Bravo to anyone who can get them!
1) A girl’s entitled to flaunt, to get what she wants, can’t say that it’s wrong, no baby.
2) Here I go, out to the sea again. The sunshine fills my hair, and dreams hang in the air. Ace of Base, Wonderful Life (wysiwygraphics)
3) Let me tell you about the kind of guys that like me, they’re in jail. Either that or there slumming and walking on the wild side. Bif Naked, Regular Guy (wysiwygraphics)
4) I’ve always hated my room it’s so gloomy and dreary. Always to dark for the windows just face the backyard. Abba, Lovelight (wysiwygraphics)
5) I saw you from afar, standing by the car. I watched you.
Dustin
Number 11,, a good ol Canadian boy,, Bryan Adams Heaven
Yup, but I have the DJ Sammy Dance version of it haha 🙂
Ok, embarrassed that I think I know this one,, but,,,, #19 Venus Bananarama. Sad thing is,, I read the lyrics, and just now in the kitchen I realized what I was humming. I curse you for this blog entry,, cause now I will be singing all night,, “she got it,, oh baby she got it,,,I’m your Venus, I’m your fire,, your desire,,” Of course,, if I am wrong,, I will be even more embarrassed.
No that is right! I thought that was the easiest one of them all
16 is Goodbye Love from Rent.
😀
#4 genie in a bottle, christina aguilera
#8 hold me now, thompson twins
#9 love bite, def leppard
#20 hot stuff, donna summer
Thanks for the shout-out.
#8 is “Hold Me Now” by The Thompson Twins
#2 is not Pink Floyd’s Comfortably Numb although the lyrics are similar… it’s something much more recent but I can’t think of what it is.
#3 = “Mother & Father” Madonna — probably my favorite song from the American Life CD!
#2: “Kiss the Rain” by Billie Meyers
#7: Dannii Minogue “I Begin To Wonder”
#5 Alanis Morrisette “I’m Not the Doctor”
#1,, without cheating and looking it up on the ‘net,, the closest I can guess is Get Ready? by some group of guys from the 60’s? I can picture the fee fee fi fi fo fo fum part,,lol
Nope lol, I knew some of these would be hard
Ok,, I had to look up what I was thinking, it was Get Ready- Hall and Oates (dont know where I got group from the 60’s outta that) The first line was Never met a girl could make me feel the way that you do.. Close, but no cigar.
#13: Anastacia “Left Outside Alone”
#15: Abba “One Of Us”
#18: is it – Scissor Sisters “Take Your Mama Out” ??
and
#17: Dana Rayne “Object Of My Desire”
and
#10: Pink “U & Ur Hand” (This one was driving me nuts!) 🙂
Yes that is it!
#12: Deborah Cox “Nobody’s Supposed To Be Here”
BTW: I like your taste in music – pretty diverse
AND, I’m pretty sure ACE of Base – “Wonderful Life” (one of my all time favorites) is #2 on your removed list & #3: “Regular Guy” by Bif Naked ?? #4: ABBA “Lovelight” And, officially I’m done, I’ve got to get back to work!
Right again! I’ll add these later tonight, about to go to dinner.
I can’t believe you got Wonderful Life, only hard core Acers would get that as the album is only available on import! Lovelight by Abba is equally hard, it’s only on More Abba Gold and was released only as a B-side in the US originally.
I have that ACE of BASE on a cassette tape – we used to blare it on the boat while water skiing. Some songs just need to be loud! I also have some REALLY, and I mean REALLY rare records & tapes that I’ve been collecting from private collectors… have you every heard of Ian Lloyd? my all time FAVORITE SONG “Goosebumps”! Oh yea, I have a lot of favorites!
BTW: I think I have that ABBA somewhere, I’ll have to look through all my albums, which can TAKE A LONG TIME!!
Have fun at Martha’s – She’s pretty cool, I think the best part of her shows was the one where she made martinis and it was a “Good Thing!” ha ha!
