Yet another meme, with Added Hi-Jinks!
Most people will probably know the drill for this one already - guess the artist and song title, answers on a postcard (or in the comments) please!
Also, in the style of MLSO, I'm pitting my LJ-list against my FB-list, in a wacky hi-jinks musical competition to see who gets more.
Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line (or two lines, or whatever) from the first 50 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both band and title.
Step 4: ???
1. Slip on your Barber Jacket, jump in my old MG.
2. Everybody’s been in my face telling me I gotta make a change,
3. So she said What’s the problem, baby? What’s the problem, I don’t know, well maybe I’m in love,
4. Sun is shining in the sky, there ain’t a cloud in sight,
5. Watch the early morning sun drip like blood from the day,
6. Ra ra, ah ah aaah, Roma roma-mah-aah, ga ga, ooh la laa...
7. Maybe if I act like that, that guy will call me back,
8. Oh how I’d love it girl, just you and me, take the day and fly,
9. Well I kept fantasizing your eyes were wide open, and it made me long for little last night
10. It’s been one week since you looked at me, cocked your head to the side and said I’m angry
11. He’s got a road-map of Jupiter, a radar fix on the stars, all along the highway
12. Have you ever started dancing in the middle of a shopping mall
13. [redacted] propping up the bar, driving in a car, it looks so easy,
14. I’m lying here on the floor, where you left me
15. I got my first real 6-string, bought it at the 5 and dime
16. It’s a God-awful small affair to the girl with the mousey hair
17. Clue number one was when you knocked at my door
18. She stepped off the bus out into the city street, just a small town girl with her whole life packed in a suitcase by her feet
19. I woke up this morning and the sun was gone
20. She looks like she don’t care, smooth as silk, cool as air
21. High, higher than the sun, you shoot me from a gun
22. Hey sister, go sister, soul sister, flow sister...
23. I don’t want to be the girl who laughs the loudest, or the girl who never wants to be alone
24. She walked into the room her hand upon her hip, said look out boy I'll make your backbone slip
25. Put on your best dress darling, can’t you see the time is right
26. Sweet confetti out looking for a saviour, finding it hard to break the chain, nothing ventured, nothing gained
27. I see a red door and I want it painted black
28. I’ve had a little bit too much, much, all of the people start to rush, start to rush by,
29. Blue jean baby, LA lady, seamstress for the band
30. Life’s ambition occupies my time, priorities confuse the mind
31. Another head hangs lowly child is slowly taken
32. The lonely road you choose to travel on, it must seem awfully long
33. No-one ever wrote a song for me, just instrumental not too long
34. My world is miles of endless roads that leaves a trail of broken dreams
35. I dance around this empty house, tear it down, throw you out
36. There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
37. I travelled among unknown men in lands beyond the sea, no England did I know till then the love I bore to thee,
38. Here we stand, here we fall, history don’t care at all
39. She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge
40. I like your nose, I like your hair, I like you clothed, I like you bare
41. I want to hold ‘em like they do in Texas please
42. You spurn my natural emotions, you make me feel like dirt, and I’m hurt
43. She’s a perfect 10, but she wears a 12, baby keep a little 2 for me
44. Virginia was a lot lizard from F.L.A, she had a compound fracture in the trunk
45. Now it’s been 25 years or more I’ve roamed this land from shore to shore, from Tyne to Teign, Severn to Thames, from moor to vale, peak to fen
46. Your figure, like your friendship gradually grows and grows
47. I would say I'm sorry if I thought that it would change your mind
48. Guess I just lost my husband, I don’t know where he went
49. Oh you had to fit, but you’re fit to drop, Open up the window and jump into the blue
50. Hey mister, where you headed? Are you in a hurry?
