That music memething

[fightingthecage]

Step 1: Put your MP3 player on random.
Step 2: Post the first line(s) of the first 25 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: NO CHEATING (that goes for the guesser, too!)

These are all from my 'Favouites' playlist as if I took 25 songs at random from all the tunes on my ipod, chances are I wouldn't have a clue what they are and be totally unable to tell if you get them correct or not.

Heh, these is quite an alarming tendancy for the title of the song to be in the first line with some of these. Still, there ya go. Also in the case of * - those are the first lines of the first verse. The song starts with the chorus but that would have just been ridiculously easy.
