1. I'll post the first line or two of the first 25 songs that come up on shuffle
2. You guess the song & artist
3. No Googling!

Except if a song is lame, has telling opening lyrics, or I knew no one else would have heard it (hello tiny local bands I love), then I skipped it and did the next.


01. Who do you carry the torch for, my young man?
Do you believe in anything?
Do you carry it around just to burn things down?

02. Tryin' to figure out which way I want this to go
Do I want it to be happy or sad or fast or slow?

03. You've got them all, by the balls
causin' waterfalls
Stone walls
Bar brawls
Peaches - Boys Wanna Be Her (lovedbythesun)

04. Bring along your tricks and trade
We will lie here, here we lay
And though this ship is out to sea
I'm content to lie peacefully
Eisley - Many Funerals (zvarri)

05. She walk into the court her knees buckle
Saying for a man to survive he needn't hustle
Seen and been through struggle her whole life
Made a transition from being his ho to his wife

06. Ricky was a young boy, He had a heart of stone.
Lived 9 to 5 and worked his fingers to the bone.
Just barely got out of school, came from the edge of town.

07. This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait

08. Now I know that I can't make you stay
But where's you heart?
My Chemical Romance - Famous Last Words (pronto)

09. Can't you see that it's just raining
Ain't no need to go outside...

10. At first it started with the eyes
I'm like uh uh no way, yo sister, can't no
And so the tension slowly builds

11. I would swallow my pride,
I would choke on the rinds,
but the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
Eve 6 - Inside Out (lovedbythesun)

12. You with the sad eyes
don't be discouraged
oh I realize
it's hard to take courage

13. Am I more than you bargained for yet
I've been dying to tell you anything you want to hear
Fall Out Boy - Sugar, We're Going Down (dogseesgod)

14. I've never been confronted with my own thoughts
They don't bother me when I'm alone
Can you come over save me, because he won't stop

15. I can't remember the time or place,
or what you were wearing,
it's unclear about how we met,
New Found Glory - The Story So Far (dogseesgod)

16. You have so many relationships in this life
Only one or two will last
You go through all this pain and strife
Hanson - MMMBop (dogseesgod)

17. Soldiers come quickly, I feel the earth beneath my feet.
I’m feeling badly, it’s not an attempt at decency.
And if you’re well off, well then I’m happy some for you.
Rilo Kiley - The Execution of All Things (zvarri)

18. In a field outside of town we could always be alone
Carry a blanket maybe a basket - and that's it

19. These ideas are nightmares to white parents
Whose worst fear is a child with dyed hair and who likes earrings
Like whatever they say has no bearing, it's so scary in a house that allows

20. My mouth is frozen so I can't even speak
What a disappointment, I had it perfectly
What I was going to bring up suddenly

21. Oh snap, you know this track is fly, so get crunked up and don't ask why.
Post-rap, post-punk, post-Kurt Cobain, post Kool Moe Dee post-House of Pain.
Chuck D told me I had to be me so I bought the Public Enemy CD.

22. Cut my tongue out
I've been caught out
Like a giant juggernaut
Happy hours
Golden showers
On a cruise to freak you out

23. I hear my name
I hear the trash you're talking
In your sleep
The secrets that you're keeping

24. I saw fireworks from the freeway
And behind closed eyes I cannot make them go away
'Cause you were born on the fourth of july, freedom ring
Jason Mraz - The Remedy (dogseesgod)

25. Wake in the morning
Long way from home
Alarm clock is a warning
I'm still alone
