A music lyrics meme from daydreamweaver,

Put all the songs in your music collection on shuffle, and write down the first line of each of the first 30 songs that pops up.

(Actually, I only put 28. Because 28's perfect. Also, I didn't count songs that didn't have lyrics, for obvious reasons.)

2. I believe in a thing called love - The Darkness
18. Earthshite, Rush

I'll own this the second I'm done with exams. Gives other people a chance before I pull out my music geekery.

Just off the top of my head...
24: Tiny Dancer, Elton John
27: We are the Champions, Queen
28: Breathe, Pink Floyd (Duh)

24, right song, wrong artist. But, close enough. :)

this is really embarressing

[phoenix_hawk]

except for #27, I don't recognize any of them...

Don't feel too bad, a lot of these are kinda obscure. Thing is, with a library of 13,000+ songs, randomly selecting 30 can have some weird results. ;)

1. OAR - "When Can I Go Home"
3. Dance Hall Crashers - "Lost Again"
8. Marcy Playground - "All the Lights Went Out"
11. Saves the Day - "Firefly"
20. Queen - "Ride the Wild Wind" I'm assuming at least.
25. They Might Be Giants - "Wicked Little Critter" Critta? One or the other.

But my favorite on your list:

22. Sebadoh - Notsur Dnuora Selcric

I could probably have the rest if I thought about it. Starlight Mints, maybe? Not sure about it though.

I must say, I'm a little impressed. :)

[jilu]

Never doubt my mad skillz.

I mean, I only worked at a record shop for years and am incredibly knowledgeable of all things indie.

I love Sebadoh with all my heart.

[duaiwe]

Huh, then I'm surprised you didn't get at least one other. ;)
But then, like you said, I'm sure if you put the thought into it you could :p
