Song Lyrics Meme

[mirrorthaw]

heresluck did this one back in April and I'm only just now getting around to playing along. Yep, it's been busy 'round here.

The meme goes like this: Put your music-makin' device on "random shuffle," take the first 20 songs, post your favorite line(s) from each, and invite the world to name that tune.Note the first: music making device used, 1 (one) iPod

Off the top of my head:

2) Jimmy Eat World, "Bleed American"
3) The Candyskins, "24 Hours (U.S.E.D.)"
4) Hayward Williams, "Cleverly Disturbed"
7) Jeffrey Foucault, "I Dream An Old Lover"
11) Son Volt, "Tear Stained Eye"
18) Paul Simon, "The Obvious Child"
20) Peter Mulvey, "29 Cent Head)

...and I have niggling "I know this" feelings about a few of the others, but nothing specific enough to venture a guess.

The really embarrassing thing about this is how conclusively it proves that I don't process lyrics well.

Also, heresluck beat me to a bunch of 'em.

(16) is The Be Good Tanyas, "Light Enough to Travel."

Oh! Oh! 8) is Josh Ritter! ....I have absolutely no idea what song, though. It's not from the most recent CD, I know that. I think also not on Hello Starling. Probably Golden Age of Radio. Argh.

Yes; don't have that one; have it, but it's not on the iPod; yes!
