Here are the "rules":
- put your itunes/winamp/media player of your choice on random.
- post the first line from the first 30 songs that play.
- post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
- strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
- don't cheat by typing them into google…haha.
1. In the nervous light of paradise with the rumors flying, and sacrifice is laid out my before my eyes, underneath the big city skies.
2. See the watermelon man a-come.
3. I heard the words you said, but I avoided conversation. Threw stones one by one in the river's direction.
4. I'm a radio Joe of the biz called show, I'm a rockin popstar with a get up and go.
5. Go away from my window, go away from my door. Go away from my bedside, and bother me no more.
6. I've been feeling dull as a coat hanger, pretty as a picture of a patient on a fresh iv. Giddy as a gangbanger with a set of sutures where his Magic Johnson ought to be.
7. Seems that not long ago, I could get you to laugh. Now your hand shakes so bad, feel your eyes on my back.
8. Studio man wants me to sing my song. He's a funny-looking thing on a pole. He says: "Sing it again, with more feeling. Sing it with all your soul."
9. Back when I was ten, Jim was my best friend. We'd go down to the station, and we'd watch those trains roll in. -Long Black Train
10. Little girl you're still far too young to have a heart that's been so broken. It might seem like you ain't got no one - well I'm here for you. -Darby's Song
11. Talk about your famous love affairs. Romeo and Juliet had theirs. I just found someone, someone for me. We're not very famous, but who cares?
12. I often dream of trains when I'm alone. I ride on them into another zone. I dream of them constantly, heading for paradise. Or Basingstoke. Or Reading. -I Often Dream Of Trains
13. I've come such a long a way to get to where I am today. And I must admit I used to be more like one of my enemies.
14. My name's Jean Lafitte, and I've long since retired, after sailing the sevens for years. -Jean Lafitte
15. I remember, when I was a little girl, our house caught on fire. -Is That All There Is?
16. Changing metal into gold elixir. I watched the sea play about her legs.
17. Well, I considered you my friend, 'til lies started trickling in.
18. I got my finger on the trigger, but I don't know who to trust. -Devils & Dust
19. Spent the summer at the strawberry stand, there wasn't much that you could do about it.
20. I am painting in oils a portrait of a man.
21. Sweethearts or strangers, where do we go from here?
22. I never seen a scene as perfect as it seems. But they're all so socialized, so go on and socialize.
23. In the dusk, bloody mane and tail. In the dawn, cold that aches in his belly.
24. Wicked wicked from the mouth I spout, oh Lord, don't let these thoughts come out. -My Narrow Mind
25. Girls don't want to play like that, just want to talk to the boys. -The Girls Want To Be With The Girls
26. Life is scary, shadows scare me. Noises everywhere but I'm still young.
27. I taught the weeping willow how to cry, and I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky. -Big River
28. Baby, baby, baby, baby, now don't you look so blue. I got a surprise for you, darlin', you're gonna like it, too. -I Cleaned Out A Room (In My Trailer For You)
29. When I was a boy, the moon was a pearl, the sun a yellow gold. But when I was a man, the wind blew cold, the hills were upside down. -Good Old World
30. You don't believe you should be loved, so you've constructed defenses against it. -Tender Mercies
