song meme/game
Game snagged from padparascha, because it's interesting and I was listening to the entire contents of mp3 player shuffled anyway.
It's the first line, or in a few places the first line I could be sure of transcribing accuratley, of the first 20 vocal songs to come up on my player on random. Guess what they are, comments screened.
Funny, the mp3 player sometimes throws up a quite disproportionate 'random' sampling.
1. You left Billy with the kid and all the selfless things you did with Billy
2. Feuilles oh, sauvez la vie moi, dans mes yeux mouilles oh
3. Young men, soldiers, 1914, marching to countries they've never seen
4. 'It's a cold day for September' was all I thought to say
5. Well he went down to dinner in his Sunday best
6. ...See that couple on the sidewalk? They're the picture of bliss (not first line)
7. In April, when your barge sailed through, I fell in love with you
8. While traveling northwards on a back country lane I came on the village where first I grew
9. I'm not surprised it's come to this; sooner or later there must be another's kiss
10. Said the lord unto his lady as he rode over the moss
11. Sometimes at night we almost speak, we almost speak in friendly terms
12. There is an ancient party at the other end of town
13. ...L'equipage qui et d'aborde c'est les jeunes filles de quinze ans (not first line)
14. I walked the streets of New Orleans with the girl of my dreams
15. Just when every ray of hope was gone I should've known that you would come along
16. Maybe it would be fun to get a new opinion, get a little work done, and forget
17. I'm hiding in a rain barrel inside these consul walls
18. When you're in love you don't know much about it, not in your mind. Romantic love rots the brain, no doubt about it, you're out of your mind
19. Oh, I'm missing you, I'd give all for the price of the flight, oh I'm missing you, under picadilly's neon...
20. Can anybody find me someone to love?
