According to the lovely ladies at ButtercupPunch, there’s a viral Facebook music thingie going around, wherein participants shuffle their iPod and then list the first lines of the first 25 tracks, so that others can try and guess the songs. As I’m totally behind with this, and as being behind damages my intergeek cred, I therefore give in. So:
1. We’ve got stars directing our fate, and we’re praying it’s not too late
2. Crosslegged on the front lawn, she’s had a bad pill
3. You’re the Devil in me I brought in from the cold
4. Time on your side that will never end, the most beautiful thing you can ever spend
5. If you’re feeling low and lost today, you’re probably doing too much again
6. Purple haze all in my brain, lately things just don’t seem the same
7. Once upon a time I was of a mind to lay your burden down
8. A bold hippopotamus was standing one day on the banks of the cool Shalimar
9. He crys out her eyes, a fire unfurnaced
10. Aishiteta to nageku ni wa, amari ni mo toki wa sugi te shimatta
11. Wire’s coming back again, Elastica, got sued by them
12. Give me a word, give me a sign
13. Sometimes they’ll want to cut you down
14. Yo, this is a lesson in friendship, the depths of a kinship
15. Looking for a single thread of melody to help me get by
16. I think I’ll close my eyes and wait as the world goes by
17. I want a God who stays dead, not plays dead
18. I woke twice last night, walked to the window
19. All simple monkeys with alien babies, amphetamines for boys, crucifixes for ladies
20. I was lying on the grass on Sunday morning of last week, indulging in my self-defeat
21. You keep saying you’ve got something for me
22. There comes a time when you swim or sink, so I jumped in the drink
23. I hate to talk like this, I hate to act as if there’s something wrong
24. Well it’s not hard to see, anyone who looks at me knows I am just a rolling stone
25. It’s because I love you, not because we’re far apart
Knock yourselves out 🙂
