On your current playlist, hit shuffle and pick the first twenty songs on the list (no matter how cheesy or embarrassing), and write down your favorite line of the song. Try to avoid putting the song title in the line. Then, have your friends comment and see if they know the songs. No cheating!
There were a bunch of instrumentals that got skipped, and one gregorian chant
1) The way you looked at life / In your funny way
2) She just wanders around / unaffected by / the winter winds
3) Then watched the sky / Then wanted to cry (this was hard, since half the song is repetition of the title)
4) With the thoughts I'd be thinkin' I could be another Lincoln
5) Wait / Don't turn the page / I'm not finished
6) Just like a willow/ That bends to the water / And clings to the shore
7) Businessen they drink my wine / plow men dig my earth
8) A man stakes his neighbour's cat to the barbecue / and turns on the gas / now are you going to talk he says / Or am I going to have to get nasty
9) Out here on this highway the rules are still the same / Back roads never carry you where you want 'em to
10) When I feel you close to me / What can I do but fall?
11) They were counting down the days to stab the brother in the be right back after this
12) There's been a load of compromising / on the road to my horizon
13) I've touched this place before / so we're in another time
14) Money can't replace it / no memory can erase it / and I know I'm never going to find / another one to compare
15) We would all vote him / but frankly to be loved to death
16) When I'm broke and I got no place to go
17) Some kind of savior singing the blues / a derelict in your duct tape shoes
18) Everybody got a breakin' point / And baby there you are
19) I met a lovesick daughter of the San Joaquin / she showed me colors I'd never seen / Drank the bottom out of my canteen
20) Perpendicular teeth / in middle America / deliver the kidney / in my double-decker double-wide
I don't think it says nearly as much about what I listen to because the shuffle was a bit clumpy. I like the results of this one better. And there are a few that just about everyone should be able to get, and only a few that I don't think anyone will get.
