The meme that everyone’s doing…
My playlist is really weird, and despite having only 200 songs, I think it’s a good indication of wide variety of music I end up listening to. That, and I realise I wouldn’t be able to do my own 30 songs despite just listening to all of them. Anyway, here goes:
Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 5: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is cheating. no cheating, please

Ed, you’re absolutely right.
I think it’s really ironic that someone who hasn’t seen his 20th birthday can pick out a David Bowie song.
