Playlist Meme Revisited
Being a bit bored right now I thought I would revisit the playlist meme. I guess you all remember the drill - you guess the title and artist of the track based on the opening lines (if the title is included in the opening lines, I will black it out). This time, before I started I intended to exclude all instrumental tracks, all tracks in a Scandinavian language, and having no more than one track from the same artist. After 4 or 5 tracks I discovered a kind of pattern, and decided to skip some otherwise eligible tracks to maintain that pattern. Extra point to the first to discover this pattern (shouldn’t be too hard).
I guess these are mainly main stream and shouldn’t be too hard to guess:
1.
'Cause it's a ****, this life
Trying to make ends meet
2.
Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high - Black Velvet - Alannah Myles
regina_of_york
3.
****,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night - Blinded By the Light - Mannfred Mann's Earth Band
misunderstruck
4.
Do you have the time to listen to me whine
About nothing and everything all at once - Basket Case - Green Day
misunderstruck
5.
You got a great car
Yeah what's wrong with it today
I used to have one too - Bohemian Like You - The Dandy Warhols
rockstarwookie
6.
September '77
Port Elizabeth weather fine
It was business as usual
In police room 619 - Biko - Peter Gabriel

Well she's all geared up
Walkin' down the street
And I can feel the slime
Drippin' down her sleeve
8.
Thats the one, Oy
How did he not find the baggy, with his hand in my shoe?
9.
Standing in line
To see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow - By The Way - Red Hot Chilli Peppers

10.
Well my soul checked out missing as I sat listening
To the hours and minutes tickin' away
Pattern: They all start with a 'B'
