gacked wholeheartedly from nnaylime

Whip out your music program, click the random button, and pick out 20 songs. Alter the name by turning it into a convoluted, wordy synonym. For example: "Silent Night" = "Nocturnal Time Completely Lacking Noise." When someone guesses the title correctly, italicize the convoluted one and put the real title and the person who figured it out.

And yes, yes, I did use 4 songs by Venus Hum. I thought they'd be interesting to translate like this... *heh*
