Name That Tune

Okay, I am officially without a lucid thought between all the car, insurance company, body shop crap... and work has been as totally insane... more so than any other week this year... so I will just go the meme route for today... since I still hate to miss a day... and you are going to be getting a big W&C break ahead!

So, I am officially stealing this one from Rick today... play along!  Here are "the rules":

Step 1: Put your iPod/MP3 player or iTunes on random.

Step 2: Post the first line(s) from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song. (Instrumental songs, obviously, do not count... I am also not counting songs where the tile is uttered in the first line)

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 and post the title in bold after the stricken song when it is guessed.  (I will identify any unguessed songs by Thursday)

Step 5: (for those guessing the songs) Looking the lyrics up on Google or any other search engine is no fair... play nice!
