Oct. 15th, 2009 12:53 amA revisit of an old meme.
Rules:
A) Put your mp3 player on complete random
B) Type the opening lyrics (And ONLY the opening lyrics) of the first twenty songs that come up.
c) Leave your friends list to post their guesses - including, ideally, actually mentioning the song name and artist, this means you, Brannie! in the comments.
D) Tweak this meme to avoid sheer stupidity (Fr'instance, I skipped three instrumentals, and have removed the titles of songs when they show up in the very beginning. And moved the foreign languages to the bonus tracks. Except for the Polish one. I just flat don't have lyrics for it.)
Random Commentary: No Heather Dale this time. Wow. Also, last time I did this, the bit about first lines wasn't there, so I picked lyrics I thought were particularly memorable in a couple of cases. I guess there's some logic either way - while opening lyrics tend not to be as memorable as the follow-up (In folk songs, people seem to start by walking around until they meet someone else), it's easier to recall the melody if you're handed the very beginning.
