Music Meme- who will crush it first?

7 was Tori's Josephine. 11 was Sarah McLachlan, 13 was Sleater-Kinney. Good job, you guys crushed this.


Step 1: Get your playlist together, put it on random, and play
Step 2: Pick your favorite lines from the first 20 songs that play
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song the lines come from
Step 4: Cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly


1. And you know and I know I don't know me very well/ And I know and you know if they found me out/ when they find me out, when they find you out, you're just a sweet boy, you're just a pussy (extra lyrics on this b/c it's not the normal version of the song). Jeremy- down to the year of the tour. Is that not scary?


2. All I ever wanted/ All I ever needed/ Is here in my arms (Way too easy). Jeremy


3. No one could touch me, yeah, not even myself./ You are like a phone booth that I somehow stumbled into,/ and now look at me, I am just like everybody else. Jeremy



4. Medicating in the sun/ pinched doses of laudanum/ longing for old fecundity of my homeland (harder, but what band do you know that would use 'fecundity'?) Jess


5. Salt, sweat, sugar on the asphalt/ Our hearts littering the topsoil (I GIVE this one to Annie, and challenge you guys to get it before her) Annie


6. You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin/ Now you just say, "Oh, Romeo, yeah, you know I used to have a scene with him." (Okay, I know it's a cover, but please, the only version of this I ever listen to) Jeremy


7. From here you're haunting me./ By the Seine so beautiful, only not to be of use-- impossible.



8. And the babe, all in slumber dreams/ of a place filled with quiet screams/ and the lake where her cradle was pulled from the water Jenny!


9. I'll have him showered, scoured, deflowered. ...Do you think he's ready for this double-ended treat? (hehe) Jeremy


10. You'll be older, too./ Aaah, and if you say the word, I could stay with you. Jeremy


11. Longing - cold and hollow/ With sweet breath you'd come to warm me/ But I held on too hard to only a memory


12. You kissed me like I was a soldier/ headed for a war/ I'm a dying man but I don't know what for Jeremy


13. Threw out everything I own again today/ something's bound to give me a disease/ I still feel like nothing next to you/ because you want every, you want it/ everything


14. I was not your woman, I was not your friend,/ But you gave me something to remember./ No other man said love yourself/ Nobody else can. Jenny


15. You're beautiful, that's for sure/ You'll never ever fade/ You're lovely but it's not for sure/ That I won't ever change/ And though my love is rare/ Though my love is true Danny


16. I don't like your girlfriend, yeah i don't like her/ Never seen one of your lovers do you so much harm/ I loved you first and you know i would prefer/ If she didn't empty her syringes into your arm Jeremy


17. But I...I love it when you read it me/ And you...you can read me anything ...Some of it is just transcendental/ Some of it is just really dumb/ But I...I love it when you sing to me/ And you...you can sing me anything Jeremy


18. She doesn't care,/ just as long as she still has her friends./ She doesn't care/ whether or not he's an island./ If they laugh, they make money./ He's got a gold watch./ She's got a silk dress/ And healthy breasts Kelley



19. And nobody's gonna go to school today/ She's gonna make them stay at home/ And daddy doesn't understand it/ He always said she was as good as gold Anony-mouse


20. Does he know that place below your neck that is your favorite to be touched/ and does he cry through broken sentences like "I love you far too much?" (The emo-osity of the random button today! This one's another Annie-probable) Annie and Danny

*EDIT* Expanded 19, because people weren't getting it, but I hadn't really included enough.

Okay, for 6 I was totally listening to Indigo Girls, but you get it anyway. And no, 2 was Depeche version.

Seven doesn't, perhaps, call to you? No? Not even a leetle bit?

And if you don't get 13, no one else is going to. I don't know anyone else who listens to them.
