Music Meme

[greyias]

A post of real substance later! (Maybe.) But first... it's meme time! Yanked from mumumugen)

Step 1: Put your media player on random. iPod in my case
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 5: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is cheating.

1. I've been thinking about our love situation
   
2. Wrapped inside a twisted world - Tara MacLean, "Holy Tears" - silver_astrila
   
3. Broadway is dark tonight - Goo Goo Dolls, "Broadway" - gnine
   
4. There's another world inside of me that you may never see - Three Doors Down, "When I'm Gone" - justtheficsmaam
   
5. I never cared too much for love
   
6. All my thugs cock your nines like this *hides face*
   
7. She turned up her nose as she walked by my Cadillac
   
8. So lately been wondering who will be there to take my place
   
9. This ain't no temporary, typical, tearful goodbye (nuh uh uh)
   
10. Here I am in the place where I come to let go--
    
11. If you ain't got no money take your broke ass home - Fergie, "Glamorous" - little_blue
    
12. For just one time, I would take the Northwest Passage - Stan Rogers, "Northwest Passage" - silver_astrila
    
13. What you want, baby I got it - Aretha Franklin, "R.E.S.P.E.C.T." - justtheficsmaam
    
14. Go ahead as you waste your days with thinking - All-American Rejects, "Move Along" - little_blue
    
15. I just want to be alone tonight
    
16. Thousands of people live in this town
    
17. I'm coming out so you better get this party started - Pink, "Get This Party Started" - naye
    
18. Poor old grandad, I laughed at all his words
    
19. Across the street, the river runs - Rod Stewart, "The Rhythm of My Heart" - gnine
    
20. He took a rifle and killed a disciple so that those nagging thoughts would leave him in peace

I think in this case, my iPod is revealing to the world how incredibly mainstream and boring my music tastes are (most of the time...)

Holy crap, if this is all mainstream music, then I think I need to get out more. The only one I recognize is #12 - Northwest Passage by Stan Rogers. Is it cheating if the title is in the lyrics? :)

That's it!

Nope, not cheating at all ;) Several of them actually have the title in the lyric.

I guess mainstream may be a teeny bit misleading, as they're not all on the Billboard Charts now, but they have been in the past. But with the exception of, hrm, three or four, all of these have had serious radio play time on either Top 40, Country, or Rap stations.

Okay, I lied :)

#2 is by Tara MacLean, Holy Tears. I'm thinking someone may have been a Due South fan. . . NOW I don't recognize any more. I promise.

D'aww, but it's fun when people recognize them!

Hee! Just a little bit. I love both of those soundtracks to death, and it depends on which day of the week which one is my favorite of the two.
