Music Shuffle Name-That-Song Meme!
May. 27th, 2010 08:59 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
I need to do something. So I'm swiping a meme from
brighteyed_jill.
The rules are as follows:
Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing. Skip the instrumental-only pieces (non-English too if you want).
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and title correctly. (If it's a cover, the original artist is okay, and vice-versa.)
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: If you like this game, post your own!
