Set your playlist on randomize, list a lyric from the first 25 songs that come up (without cheating) and invite people to guess the song. GOOGLING IS CHEATING. Public recognition and its attendant glory for the first to correctly name the song and artist. (though i dunno how much public recognition one gets by being in my comment threads...)
1. all he wanted was to remain in sane / he can't remember his own name
2. anne, with her father, is out in the boat / riding the water / riding the waves on the sea
3. it could go on forever / in which case i'm doomed
4. see the young man in his new gown / talking up to his bouffant drag
5. a permanent lapse / is more than we'll ever know
6. don't try to be an artist / i try to be a man
7. i'm still fighting with myself / to get it all in gear
8. but i know that even if you will / you cannot ever help me / nor can i / ever help you
9. his eyes like candles / in the temple / a mirror to the core of my soul
10. my name is death / but i am alive / i am alive
11. i want to cross over, i want to go home / but she says, go back, go back to the world
12. a delivery smooth like water from a fountain / that's why we're gonna move any mountain
13. it's so rare / to find someone / who / brings on the sunshine the way you do
14. handgranaten / [TITLE REDACTED]
15. that echo forth and on forever / and onward now and on forever / and onward now and on forever
16. this road ain't long enough / to miss a single turn
17. so far away / glass sealed and pretty / [TITLE REDACTED]
18. tomorrow's only a kettle whistle away in the cold light of day
19. seems she ran aground on manoeuveres / [TITLE REDACTED]
20. half-life dreams will not be worth much
21. ah, the little girl is shy / you see of late shes been quite speechless / very speechless
22. we've lost all our money, we're thrown out of bars / we're lying in the gutter, but we're looking at the stars
23. kiss me goodbye / when i'm on my own / but you know thati'd rather be home
24. faces watching her / she's watching the faces / watching her
25. the end of laughter and soft lies / the end of nights we tried to die / [TITLE REDACTED]
(eerily appropriate last track! ha!)
it does say "no cheating", but i skipped all instrumentals, of course. also, to keep things interesting, i have gone with the last bit in each song (barring a repeat of the chorus).
