Guess the Song Meme...

[turquoisetumult]

I've seen both mistojen and popcornleader do this meme and it sounded fun. Sooo...

1. Open your music collection and set the songs to shuffle/random.
2. Take the first 30 and write one line from each.
3. As people guess the songs, strike them. 

There quite a few artists/bands that are repeated. There are also quite a few songs that no one but hard-core fans will get (sorry)...

Just noticed, I didn't quite follow direction #2. I definitely included more than one line. Whoops... It's okay, I doubt it will affect people's guesses much...

Looking forward to see your answers - Good luck!

1. Do you come together ever with him? // And is he dark enough? Enough to see your light?
2. Your touch used to be so kind // Your touch used to give me life // I've waited all this time, I've wasted so much time
3. Breathe in deep, and cleanse away our sins // And we'll pray that there's no God // To punish us and make a fuss (One of those songs that you-know-who fans will get quite easily. Others probably will have no clue... lol)
4. Oh well I don't mind, you don't mind // 'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
5. So here I go again // Chasing you down again // Why do I do this?
6. Can I believe when I don't trust // All your theories turn to dust // I choose to hide from the all seeing eye
7. I don't want what you want // I don't feel what you feel // See I'm stuck in a city // But I belong in a field
8. To see wide open with a head that's broken // Hang a life on a tragedy
9. I promise to depart, just promise one thing // Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep
10. To be endlessly cold within and dreaming I'm alive...
11. And despite what I might say // I measure pleasure by the pain // Measure pleasure by the twisting of the metal in the vein
12. I don't care about anyone else // I'm a strong dead man, looking out for himself
13. I might join your century // but only on a rare occasion
14. Cracked eggs, dead birds // scream as they fight for life
15. I looked into your eyes and saw a world that does not exist // I looked into your eyes and saw a world I wish I were in
16. Too broken to belong // Too weak to sing along
17. This is all beyond control // Murder on our frozen souls
18. The sun forgives the clouds // You are my holy shroud
19. You're lying safe in bed // It was all a bad dream // Spinning through your head
20. A thousand miles seems pretty far // But they've got planes and trains and cars // I'd walk to you if I had no other way
21. Let your inhibitions go // Make every touch electrical
22. I know I'll make it, love can last forever // Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
23. Well I’m not paralyzed // but I seem to be struck by you // I want to make you move // because you’re standing still
24. When will stupid learn? // Fire's gonna burn
25. And my lips they don't kiss // They don't kiss the way they used to // And my eyes don't recognize you no more
26. Yeah, the night's not over // You're not trying hard enough
27. Sweet reunion Jamaica and Spain // We're like how we were again // I'm in the tub, you on the seat // Lick your lips as a I soak my feet
28. Oh, god it feels like forever // But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home // Sitting all alone inside your head
29. The jig is up, the news is out // They finally found me
30. You've been the only thing that's right // In all I've done...

My own little twist to the game:

Anyone that gets ten (five - seems my music isn't very popular *blushes*) or more correct (without cheating, of course) can request a graphic from me (preferably icons) and I'll make it for him/her free of charge. lol. Though, they might have to wait a week or so before I can get it to them...

ETA: Hell, even if don't even attempt to answer, you can request an icon of me. I'm feeling generous ... and procrastinating-like (school just started). ;)

(What, I need to get back into the swing of things. What can be better than motivation from others... ;))

Isn't it always that way? That's how it was for me when Jen did this.

Maybe I can re-do this meme one day with new songs and you can get here early and show off your mad lyric-naming skills before anyone else has the chance. lol.

;)

I'm highly considering doing this again, actually...there were still two songs on mine that no one ever got... lol

Haha. Try 12 that no one got... *blushes*
