Stealing this from Karen:

1.) On your current playlist, hit shuffle and pick the first thirty songs on the list that you randomly chose
2.) Write down one (or two [or] four) lines of the song. Try to avoid putting the song title in the line.
3.) Have your friends comment and see if they know the songs. (NO CHEATING!)
4.) When someone guesses correctly, strike out the line and list the correct name of the song next to it. (Title AND artist [or character, if a character image song -- anime series will work as well] have to be correctly guessed.)

(I don't know how to do that whole, link to longer text thing on LJ, so, all the songs will be here).

1. You see me now, a veteran
Of a thousand psychic wars
I've been living on the edge so long
Where the winds of limbo roar

2. Well I don't know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain't right,
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs,

3. Well, It's been getting so hard
Livin' with the things you do to me, ah ha
My dreams are getting so strange
I'd like to tell you everything I see

4. We skipped the light fandango
turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
but the crowd called out for more

5. There are places I’ll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain

6. I think I’m gonna be sad,
I think it’s today, yeah.
The girl that’s driving me mad
Is going away.

7. Well, I'm a lonesome schoolboy
And I just came into town
Yeah, I'm a lonesome schoolboy
And I just came into town
Well, I heard so much about London
I decided to check it out

8. I've paid my dues -
Time after time -
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime -

9. Green gum Lips so pink
Hot neon pen
Flash forward take a picture of me
I'm the prize at the end

10. I've got sunshine,
On a cloudy day,
When it's cold outside,
I've got the month of May My Girl - The Temptations

11. All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

12. Well, I was rollin' down the road
In some cold blue steel,
I had a blues man in back,
And a beautician at the wheel.

13. Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"

14. Sometimes when your hopes have all been shattered
And there's nowhere to turn
You wonder how you keep going
Think of all the things that really mattered

15. They come over here
And they take all our land
They chop off our heads
And they boil them in oil
Our children are leaving
And we have no heads
We drink and we sing
And we drink and we die

16. I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

17. Can’t buy me love, love
Can’t buy me love
I’ll buy you a diamond ring my friend if it makes you feel alright
I’ll get you anything my friend if it makes you feel alright The Beatles - Can't Buy Me Love

18. All my friends know the low rider
The low rider is a little higher
Low rider drives a little slower
Low rider is a real goer

19. You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.
You'd be like Heaven to touch.
I wanna hold you so much. Frankie Valli - Can't Take My Eyes Off of You

20. What's this? What's this?
There's color everywhere
What's this?
There's white things in the air The Nightmare Before Christmas - Waht's This?

21. Rumour sprendin' a-'round in that Texas town
'bout that shack outside La Grange
and you know what I'm talkin' about.
Just let me know if you wanna go
to that home out on the range.
They gotta lotta nice girls.

22. I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world Louie Armstrong - What a Wonderful World

23. In a little cabaret in a South Texas border town,
Sat a boy and his guitar, and the people came from all around.
And all the girls from there to Austin,
Were slippin' away from home and puttin' jewelery in hock

24. Paid the cost to be the boss
Paid the cost to be the boss
Paid the cost to be the boss
Look at me
you know what you see,
you see a bad mutha
Look at me
you know what you see,
you see a bad mutha

Yesterday don’t matter if it’s gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night

26. If you're havin' trouble with your barnyard friends
You got a thing for ewes
Been countin' sheep, but you're not in bed
Here's what you gotta do
Get off the farm, stay outta the barn
Go read a nursery rhyme
Don't ring 976-BAAA, that kind of love's a crime

27. I get up in the evening, and I ain’t got nothing to say
I come home in the morning, I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain’t nothing but tired, man I’m just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help

28. Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all,
Or if he moves will he fall?
