Song Meme

[jackofallgeeks]

The rules: Put your playlist on random, from the first twenty (or fifty) songs (regardless of cheese factor) post your favorite line (if the tune has no words, you are allowed a redo) - then let the people try and guess. Don't put any clues (title, artist, anything that will give away the song).

I did the 50-point version, so go at it! Some of them are insanely obscure (Number Seventeen), some are rather popular (Number Fourty-Six), some are blatantly obvious to a select few (Number Fourteen), and some are just bad, in a bad way (Number Eleven). Whoops. I hope those don't count as hints.

1. "I've watched the stars fall silent from your eyes."


2. "You can't tell me it's not worth dying for."


3. "The only thing in sight is what I must do."

5. "You are not the sum of what you consume."


6. "There's no rule to say you'll have to cry alone."


7. "I might pay the price, but then nothing's free."


8. "And their kids were Hippie Chicks, or hypocrits, because fasion is smashing the true meaning of it."


9. "It's the little things tha get you when you weren't paying attention."


10. "It's so damn sweet of you to look me in the eyes."

13. "We never thought about tomorrow, what she might bring. Never stopped to realize that we might not always sing."


14. "So they dressed me up in all of their clothes and took me somewhere else."


15. "Well, I don't know if I'm ready to be the man I have to be."


16. "It's really not that you can't see the forest for the trees; you've never been out in the woods alone."


17. "You can call it anything you want, but the fact remains - I never got to be your Fred Astaire."


18. "If I did it fast, you know that's an act of kindness."


19. "When everything is wrong, will you come through?"


20. "If you feel like leaving, I'm not gonna make you stay."


21. "If they don't give me propper cr-cr-cr-edit, I just walk- just walk- just walk away."


22. "A lifetime's not too long to live as friends."


23. "Black roses and Hail Marys can't bring back what's taken from me."


24. "You don't love that guy you're making with, now do you?"


25. "I've written you letters that I'd like to send, if you would just send one to me."


26. "And God knows We're gonna talk about your clothes."


27. "Can you feel the love tonight?"


28. "And I swear that I don't have a gun."


29. "No more games, now, I'm gonna change what you call Rage, tear this mother-fucking roof off like two dogs caged."


30. "Everyday it comes to this, catch the things you might have missed."


31. "Unable to fight, unwilling to wake, to open your eyes and face your oppressor."


32. "If you want this, you're gonna have to ask."


33. "In the light that blinds your eyes, wrapped in the velvet cloth of dearms, my spirit flies."


34. "How about the power... to move you."


35. "Understand what I've become, it wasn't my design."


36. "Some dance to remember. Some dance to forget."


37. "I played the part and took the blame. Why'd you pretend nothing is real."


38. "You'll find a god in every golden oyster, and if you're lucky the god's a she."


39. "It's the way he looks at her that says to me 'This isn't over.'"


40. "Why can't we just be ourselves like we were yesterday?"


41. "I will light the way for us to find Order of a new kind."


42. "It's a blessing and a curse that love is blind."
43. "We are not the same, I have just one voice."


44. "I'm not Afraid of Tomorrow, I'm only scared of Myself."
