Music meme!
It's a rainy, muggy, thunder-y afternoon, perfect for blogging. I stole this from my friend Meagan:

Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Strike through when someone gets them right
Step 5: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING.

Here are mine:

1. Man, you ought to finish what you started, can't leave me here alive.

2. Hands in line, arms close to my side, I'm fighting tides, of an ocean's undertow and I figure that I might not make it

3. I know you think that I shouldn't still love you, I'll tell you that

4. Over the sea and far away, she's waiting like an iceberg, waiting to change

5. I got my first real six string, bought it at the five and dime

6. It was infinitely late at night, the stars are still up there, but they're all out of light

7. I guess you don't need it, I guess you don't want me to repeat it, but everything I have to give, I'll give to you

8. Take your head around the world and see what you get from your mind

9. I love you Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ I love you yes I do

10. Coming of age during the plague of Reagan and Bush, watching capitalism gun down democracy, it had this funny effect on me

11. Cigarettes and chocolate milk, these are just a couple of my cravings

12. I need a gun to keep myself from harm

13. I didn't ask, they shouldn't've told me, at first I laughed but now

14. Love love me do, you know I love you

15. Downstairs they're playing kitten, house set to swing

16. Caught in the middle, Carol we're middle class, we're middle-aged

17. My sister and I had an act that couldn't flop

18. Current is strong from what I've heard, it'll whisk you down the stream

19. Was a time when I had nothing to explain all this mess I have made

20. Step through this trampled wall, the unhinged door betrays it all, that far within our faith we were all waiting

21. She has a boyfriend all of a sudden, she's never had one before

22. She lay in bed all night watching the colors change, she lay in bed all night watching the morning change

23. Stranger danger, danger stranger, when you gonna follow through

24. What has been done to you has been done for a reason

I skipped a couple that had no words, and a surprising number that were in Russian, and one that was a remix of a song already on the list, but otherwise, there it is. Enjoy!

9. king of carrot flowers (part 1) by neutral milk hotel
21. you don't know me by lisa loeb

woo indie cred! that's a lot harder than i expected it to be. and the temptation to google-shit is nigh-insurmountable.
