I so rarely get involved with blog-memes, but this one seems like fun:
Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 15 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: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
Step 6: World domination!
- Glue stuck to my shoe / does anyone know why / you play with an orange rind
- All alone on the floor / next to your twin bed box-spring and mattress
- Some summers, in the evening, after 6 or so / walk on down the hill, maybe buy a beer
- Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin / Dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely in
- I used to get away with so much / now I can't get away
Well it's a 1, 2, 3, take my hand and come with me because you look so fine that I really wanna make you mine-Jill gets this! (Jet - Be My Girl)- I don't know if it was real or in a dream / lately waking up I'm not sure where I've been
Hey, your glass is empty / it's a hell of a long way home-Jill gets this! (Sarah McLachlan - Good Enough)The world is a vampire / sent to drain / secret destroyers / hold you up to the flames-Jill gets this! (Smashing Pumpkins - Bullet With Butterfly Wings)- Blushing a cue for her falsities / advantage is my only masterpiece
- My foundation was rocked / my tried and true way to deal was to vanish
- Days like this I don't know what to do with myself all day and all night
- I / I know what you did / Like a boy of summer gives his first kiss
- Nunca pense que doliera el amor asi / Cuando se entierra en el medio de un no y un si
- Don't the hours grow shorter as the days go by? / We never get to stop and open our eyes
Leave your guesses in the comments. I'll cross them off as people get them. (Also watching the LJ comments.)

Oi, where are the Preview and Markup Help buttons? Does WordPress only accept plaintext? If so, then it ought to say so.
#4: "Dance me to the end of love". Madeleine Peyroux, unless this song is a classic I happened not to have heard before...
#12 is something by Fiona Apple, off Tidal... I can hear almost the whole song, but I can't come up with the song title. "Blue Oblivion", only I'm sure that's not it...
I came across this post randomly, and can't resist.
1. Tori Amos - Putting the Damage On
#12 is killing me.
Oh, 14 is Shakira's =3
