Stolen from [livejournal.com profile] gigglemonster:
Put your music player on shuffle.
Post the first line from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarassing.
Mark when someone guesses both track and artist correctly.
Looking up lyrics in a search engine is CHEATING!

(You know what is sad? Since I got the new computer I haven't put my music back in itunes, so I only have 204 songs in itunes total. That's sad. It's been months.)


I just did a "..." if the first part of the song contained the name of the song. Then I put what comes right after. Maybe if you're lucky I'll upload this.

7 is wrong. To be fair it's very vague. Unfortunately, there's literally only 2 lines of the song repeated over and over, and one of them is the song title, lol and the other one is that.

8 is right though! yay!

Yeah that's right. I actually just downloaded this album the other day so I totally wouldn't have been able to guess it if someone else had it on their list lol.

I only know it because I was on a Regina Spektor kick not long ago. I just can't decide if I like her voice or not.

I love her voice. She's weird but I really love her, I dunno why.

#9 is "I Want You Back" by the Jackson 5 (how did no one get that???) and #27 is "Violet" by Hole. :)

I don't know how they didn't! Sometimes the lyrics sound more "depressing" when you read them versus when you hear them so I think that peppy songs are harder to place.

Right for both!
