Name that Tune!
I saw this over on MG's blog from a few days ago. And since I now have an iPod, I thought I'd try it. I knew some of her songs but was a little behind on reading her post and others had already guessed the correct answers. So I thought I'd try it out and see how well you all know MY music.
Here's the rules.
Step 1: Put your iTunes or equivalent on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarassing.
Step 3: Bold the song (and the artist in the artist list) when someone guesses correctly.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
Oh, and unlike her, I'm changing it back to 30 because this is my blog and by gosh, membership has its priviledges. Plus...I'm really liking my new iPod. And I'm bored. So you get 30 of mine for the price of her 15. Which comes to a total cost of FREE. What a bargain!!
And don't forget using shuffle, artists can be repeated.
(not saying this happened)
Have at it!! (And no cheating)

add to that I was listening to Jimmy Buffett on the way in to work and have "come monday" stuck in my head (which means each of these I have to read to that tune, lol)

I'll have to think about it and come back...
but,
I DONT cheat ;)
#27, What If, Creed
#14, The Best of Times Styx
(good song btw, you should send it to me)
#22 Have I Told You Lately Rod Stewart
And the ones that I feel like I should know but aren't coming to me are :
#4, #6, #21, #25, #23, #28
this is driving me crazy.
Right on all counts, MG. But there's a few others that I thought you would nail before these.
Ohh, ohh, I know one! Well, I know more than that, but can't think of the titles to the other ones yet...
24. California Girls.Gretchen Wilson (Ain't you glad?)

HA!
Pretty good run there, No One. Keep it up.
Some of these are SO easy!! I can't believe you guys haven't gotten a few of them right away.
I don't know the name of #17, unless that's it. But I certainly don't know the artist, either. I know some of the other words, want me to sing it?
#21 Don't bring me down by ELO
Right on the money, shaun.
number 30 is Shooter Jennings but I can't remember the song name....maybe Southern Comfort
oh, and 28 is Keith Urban, Tonight I wanna cry
3 is lil Jon, Get low
I meant 13
2 out of 3 for Trick. #13 isn't Lil Jon or Get Low.
Surely I'm not going to have to give hints.
But if I must name a few:
Marvin Gaye
Hank Jr.
Chris Ledoux
Tom Petty
Fall Out Boy
Shinedown
Sister Hazel
C'mon people!
#10 has got to be "Bless the Broken Road" by Rascal Flatts...
