Another meme! I've seen this one on my flist a couple of times now, but I think
artistic_sillie was first:) I even managed to guess a couple here and there. \o/
Let's see how well you do!

Step 1: Put your MP3 player on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Bold the songs when someone guesses correctly.
1. I was walking down the street, concentratin' on truckin' right
2. There may be trouble ahead, but while there's moonlight and music and love and romance, [title]
3. You won't believe the [title], they fall beyond your wildest dreams
4. This is the man I plan to entangle, isn't he fine?
5. I can just imagine you and me, running out of steam, going through the motion
6. My gift is my song and this one's for you
7. We turn away to face the cold, enduring chill as the day begs the night for mercy, love
8. Risin' up, back on the street. Did my time, took my chances
9. Extra mixture ricochet is gonna get my soul through this [title]day
10. Don't let this heart pollute you - cross your legs and hope to die
11. Holly came from Miami, F.L.A., Hitch-hiked her way across the USA
12. While the sun hangs in the sky and the desert has sand
13. You packed in the morning, I stared out the window and struggled for something to say
14. They gonna clean up your looks with all the lies in the books to make a citizen out of you
15. Look everyone, he's coming through the door! - Brilliant: he didn't even open it!
16. Love is a many splendored thing, love lifts us up were we belong: all you need is love!
17. I met a devil woman, she took my heart away
18. [title], your position is a messenger pigeon
19. She had something to confess to, but you don't have the time so look the other way
20. Who met this one on the M1, who hasn't stopped sucking his thumb
21. Kom, doe als weemoed, dans in 't rond: de kamer door met kat en hond
22. Well, she's not bleeding on the ballroomfloor just for the attention
23. Was'n das für'n wundervoller Hintern, Der da nebenan am Tresen steht?
24. I was feeling done in, couldn't win: I'd only ever kissed before
25. Questo e [title] - E' qui che si incontrano facce strane di una bellezza un po' disarmante
26. When I talk about it, carries on, reasons only knew
27. I've never known [title] before, now just like in a song from days of yore
28. We zitten samen in de kamer en de stereo staat zacht
29. Taktu bensin elskan, þad er allt bannad hvort sem er*
30. Vergeten, hoe zou ik jou kunnen vergeten, de jaren zijn voorbij gegleden; voorgoed verdwenen in de tijd.
*Technically, this is the title;)

(But I don't think my eighties teenyears are necessarily reflected by my playlist *grins*)
