Funny how things look different out of context

Step 1: Open up whatever MP3 program you use and add every song in your collection.
Step 2: Put it on random.
Step 3: Pick your favorite lines from the first 20 songs that play.
Step 4: Post and let everyone you know guess what song the lines come from.
Step 5: Cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 6: DON'T GOOGLE THEM.


Now I know why I took most of these out of my usual play list. And there ended up being 4 songs from the same artist. Huh. Considering some groups I have dozens of songs by... oh well.


1. What the hell are we fighting for? Just surrender and it won't hurt at all

2. Voices from the sky say rely on your best friend to pull you through, but even if I wanted to I couldn't really truly 'cos my only friend is you

3. Yeah, they say two thousand zero zero party over, oops out of time


4. I'm gonna go out, I'm gonna get myself wet, absolutely soaking wet

5. Se necesita una poca de gracia.
Una poca de gracia por mi partido.

6. Believe it or not I started to worry. I wondered if I had enough class


7. Then she suddenly revives every dream that we've had and we find ourselves alive

8. If the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall to the mountain should crumble to the sea

9. It's just no good any more since you went away.
Now I spend my time making rhymes of yesterday

10. I'm sitting' here resting' my bones.
Two thousand miles, I roam just to make this dock my home

11. Then my next door neighbour with a daughter had a favour and I gave her just a little kiss, like this

12. Now listen, oh we're stepping' out. Yeah, gonna turn around

13. Don't cry, there's always a way
Here in November in this house of leaves, we'll pray

14. Take a gun and shoot your friend, as long as you take your turn.
When you're only six years old, you own the world you've got friends to burn.

15. I feel afraid now, but not alone, we will meet again

16. Wasting time in unemployment lines, sitting around waiting for a promotion

17. Seems to me, we got to solve it individually and I'll do unto you what you do to me

18. Dream if you can a courtyard. An ocean of violets in bloom

19. I have lived for love but now that’s not enough for the world I love is dying

20. And the battle’s just begun, there’s many lost, but tell me who has won

Not sure I could name them all eve now.

4 is "It's raining men" isn't it?

12 is "Eagle Rock"?

Yes!

Wasn't sure if 'Eagle Rock' would get identified because most readers of my LJ are American and not as familiar with Australian groups/songs, even the ones *everybody* knows :)
