Song meme!
May. 10th, 2006 11:30 pmOkay, so here's the meme. Hope it didn't end up too obscure. Strangely, this time the songs that came up were relatively more well-known. Also - I limited myself only to songs I knew the lyrics to, but I didn't skip more than 4 or 5. (WMP's randomness doesn't seem to be very random, though... there were at least 4 instances where I ended up with a song I'd already used.)

INSTRUCTIONS:
Step 1: Open up whatever MP3 program you use and add every song in your collection.
Step 2: Put it on random.
Step 3: Pick your favorite lines from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 4: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 5: Cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 6: DON'T GOOGLE THEM.

1.Can't focus, I can't stop, you got me spinning round, round, round, round (like a record) - Can't focus, it's too hot (inside), you'll never get to heaven, if you're scared of getting high... (Full credit to

viqii for the artist.)
Hint: The artist is female, Spanish, and this track is from her third album.
4.And oh, my love, I'm holding on forever - Reaching for a love that seems so far - So I say a little prayer, and all my dreams will take me there - Where the skies are blue, to see you once again, my love... (Full credit to

5.The world I love, the tears I drop to be part of the wave can't stop - Ever wonder if it's all for you - The world I love, the trains I hop to be part of the wave can't stop - Come and tell me when it's time to... (Full credit to
viqii.)
6.I paid my dues, time after time, I've done my sentence but commited no crime - And bad mistakes, I've made a few - I've had my share of sand kicked in my face, but I've come through... (Full credit to
gloryforever,
judosas and
cyad.)
7. You're trying to take me, they're trying to make me - This is the only, give me the only thing - Tired of trying, I'm tired of lying - The only thing I understand is what I feel... (Half credit to

Hint: Umm... I think this song could be found in Need For Speed Underground, although I wouldn't bet my head on it...
8.Write me a love song, drop me a line - Suppose it's just a point of view but they tell me I'm doing fine... (Full credit to
cyad.)

10. Que ves aquí una persona que quiere seguir, que ves aquí la que quiere luchar y llegar hasta el fin - Que no digan lo que tengo que hacer, yo soy libre como el amanecer - Yo soy fuerte, lo sé, y no pararé, y ya nada me podrá detener...
Hint: (Same singer and same album as #3...)

cyad.)
13.Annie, are you OK, will you tell us that you’re OK - There's a sign at the window that he struck you, a crescendo, Annie - He came into your apartment, he left the bloodstains on the carpet - Then you ran into the bedroom, you were struck down, it was your doom... (From a little later:) Annie, are you OK, you OK, are you OK, Annie? - You've been hit by, you've been struck by a smooth criminal... (Full credit to
judosas.)
14. Pídeme el sol, y te lo traigo ya - Ven pide más y lo tendrás - Lo que fue, lo que es, lo que esta por pasar - Lo que bajó hoy luego irá a subir, para volver a bajar...
Hint: The singer has become really famous internationally these past few years, and the song is from a commercial.
15.And it's just like the ocean under the moon - Well it's the same as the emotion that I get from you - You got the kinda loving that can be so smooth - Yeah - Give me your heart, make it real or else forget about it... (Full credit to
pgwfolc and
cyad.)
16.What'll you do when you get lonely and nobody's waiting by your side? You've been running and hiding much too long, you know it's just your foolish pride... (Full credit to
cyad.)
17.You were everything, everything that I wanted - We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it - And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away... (Full credit to
cyad, half credit to
pgwfolc for the artist.)
18.Yo no sé, no sé cómo dejaste morir, morir esta pasión - Pudo más la fuerza del engaño, y así, y así todo acabó - ¿Qué es eso de andar dejando corazones rotos? ¡Ay! mi vida qué cosa de locos... (Full credit to
viqii.)
19. Well somebody told me you had a boyfriend who looked like a girlfriend that I had in February of last year - It's not confidential, I've got potential... (Half credit to
cyad for the title.)
Hint: Uh, I don't know much about this song, but it's by a new band, debut album (and their only one so far), and it's rock.
20.Near, far, wherever you are, I believe that the heart does go on - Once more you open the door, and you're here in my heart, and my heart will go on and on... (Full credit to
doranwen,
viqii,
pgwfolc,
gloryforever,
judosas and
cyad... that is, everybody who has commented so far *g*)
BONUS! Because five of the songs that came up are in Spanish, I'm posting the lyrics to five more songs.
21.Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear - Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near - Someday you'll say that word and I will cry - It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye... (Full credit to
viqii and
cyad.)
22.Talk to me softly, there is something in your eyes - Don't hang your head in sorrow, and please don't cry... (Full credit to
gloryforever and
cyad.)
23.Do you know I exist just to promise you this - Endlessly to be true to you - And if you answer my prayer I'd cross my heart and I'd swear - Endlessly to be true to you... (Full credit to
cyad.)
24.I get the same old dreams, same time every night - Fall to the ground and I wake up - So I get out of bed, put on my shoes, and in my head - Thoughts fly back to the break-up... (Taken from the chorus:) Could I be wrong, but since you've been gone - You cast the spell, so break it... (Full credit to
judosas and half credit to
viqii for the artist.)
25.Do you know what I think? Do you know what I think about it? - About it - I guess you don't know anything - You don't know anything about it - About it... (Full credit to
gloryforever.)
This is fun *g*
See ya,
Anna :)
