Step 2: Post a line from the first 20 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 out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 5: No cheating.
Ok, I ignored step 5 a little, but I had good reason. I don't know the words to Pie Jesu and I can't understand The Clash.

You know your music! I'm a little surprised you don't recognize #18 since you got almost all the others.
5, 9 & 11 I doubt anyone will get. One's a rockabilly song, one's by a comedian and one is just by a group that's not super well known.
WOW!

I recognize #18 now, because it's a song I refused to let my stepdaughter listen to when she was 6 and wanted to hear it... The Waitresses, "I Know What Boys Like." It was gonna drive me crazeh until I figured it out, I knew it was from the 80's and I LOVE 80's music!!
Can you download music if I send it to you?

Meredith has taken #6 as her theme song. The first time she heard it she was like, "This is about me!" Right, Mer, they wrote it in anticipation of your arrival on Earth. 80's music is the best!
God, now I'm tempted to pick harder songs and see if you can guess them. I'm such a mook!

Genius of Love is actually by the Tom Tom Club and #8 is Lene Lovich, but the song is Lucky Number. I thought I'd have you on the schlocky jojo song - it's a guilty pleasure of mine. #3 is I Beg Your Pardon by Kon Kan, circa 1989.
And since no one else seems to be guessing, I'll tell you that, from my original list, #5 is Make A Circuit With Me by the Polecats. #11 is Walking on a Wire by Lowen & Navarro (I always think of Narcissa or Draco chewing out Lucius when I listen to it) and #9 is Almighty Malachi, Professional Bowling God by Stephen Lynch.

I'll get some more together. Might take me a little while, I'm on a con call. Tonight I can ravage my iPod and put together a big list.
Would you want a CD of the groups/songs you don't know? Not that there are many, but I love L&N and Stephen Lynch is HYSTERICAL (though not kid friendly).
