Guess The Song Meme!
Feb. 23rd, 2011 07:51 pmSince I can't play Sims until my computer is fixed (Woe!), that means I am recklessly trawling my Sims Flist for my fix. And that means I see A Lot Of Memes. I am weak, WEAK I SAY, against memes, so now you all have to suffer through this one.
(I'd do the 30 days of music meme, but I am going out of town for a comic convention tomorrow, and won't be posting much till I get back... but I have my eye on that one!)
This is shameless stolen from everyone! Let's see how much my iTunes wants to embarrass me or conversely, how ancient/dorky I am... (I honestly have no shame when it comes to songs I like. Also, I'm skipping all the J-pop/K-pop/Bollywood music I have on here...)
Step 1: Put your iPod/iTunes on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song or artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
1. Gotta make a move to a town that's right for me- "Funkytown" by Lipps, INC., guessed by
hecatemahadevi
2. She was a-kissin' my back and my neck and my face
3. How can I find the way to tell you this?/ But things you seem to do all over me
4. My one and only shining star said/ Stick with me and I'll take you far
5. Hey kids, shake it loose together/ The spotlight's hitting something/ That's been known to change the weather- "Benny & the Jets" by Elton John, guessed by my brothers who don't have LJs... XD
6. He bought a sterilized hypo to shoot a sex machine drug
7. There's just one place for me/ (song title)
8. Let's have some fun this beat is sick- "LoveGame" by Lady Gaga, guessed by
xpinkyhayzx
9. No, I don't believe in luck
10. I am Governor Jerry Brown/ My aura smiles/ And never frowns- "California Uber Alles" by the Dead Kennedys, guessed by
so_goshable
11. She's the one that always stands with a smile
12. If you think you can win, come on, man/ I was a Green Beret in Vietnam
13. If I call three times a day/ Come and drive my blues away
14. It's been a long time/ Now I'm coming back home
15. I don't care if you hurt me some more
16. If I ask you difficult questions/ If I make improper suggestions
17. Buster, he sold the heat, with a rock steady beat/ An earthquake is erupting
18. I'm a street-walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm
19. You worry too much/ You make yourself sad
20. When your world is full of strange arrangements/ And gravity won't pull you through
Have at it!

Date: 2011-02-24 06:41 pm (UTC)I think I might have to hate #8. People on Trade keep saying "let's have some fun this beat is sick", even though SICK DOES NOT FUCKING HAVE A POSITIVE MEANING, WHAT THE FUCK, LADY GAGA.
I'd also like to do this meme, but at least half of the songs on my playlist don't have lyrics at all. Am I just supposed to skip those? And for the ones that are in Japanese, should I post the Japanese lyrics or their English translation? Do I skip songs that are in languages I don't know? (E.g. Hebrew, scat Finnish)
Oh, and the boys tell me #5 is "Benny and the Jets" by Elton John.

(Not that it's awful slang, but kind of weird when the under 13 set uses it... O_o) And I have no idea what kind of trollin' goes on in Trade in WoW, since I have it turned off 24/7. If I want to read 4chan, I'll go to 4chan, know what I mean?
(I skipped every song in a foreign language, because foreign languages make it hard for *other* people to guess things.)
