The Finest Taste in Music jeeperstseepers Has Ever Encountered

Feb 02, 2007 12:02

The lyrics meme seems to be making the rounds again (hobviously and glitterlust, good show), and I love music and lyrics and this meme, and it's Friday, so here we go. I went through Pipsqueak, which means all the music is stuff I really love or am into currently (or...a few weeks ago, I haven't loaded up some of my newer acquisitions). I nixed songs whose title was contained in the first line, and I also did not repeat artists. And I didn't use some songs with very few lyrics. And I was arbitrary about some selections. Sue me. No one alive can get all twenty-five, as at least one isn't even Googleable.

All right, music lovers: have at it.
