i guess we didn't have to kill this meme/ don't feel so bad though

[cimorene]

Step 1: Get your playlist together, put it on random, and play.
Step 2: Pick your favorite lines from the first 25 songs that play.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song the lines come from.
Step 4: Cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly! No cheating and pasting the lyrics into a search engine.

disclaimer:  my itunes' idea of 'random' and mine are NOT at all the same.
disclaimer 2: if i couldn't even make out the words or didn't even recognize the song i skipped it.  i wasn't going to look up 25 sets of lyrics.

2) there must be another way/ cause i believe in taking chances/ but who am i to say brc--britney spears--"overprotected"

12) i thought she knew my world revolved around her/ my lovelight burned for her alone brc--nsync--"i thought she knew"
13) we're all on the run from something we fear inside/ half a world away/ we don't really know ourselves at all
14) the road is long and the memory slides/ through the hole in my underwear guinevere33--sarah mclachlan--"black & white"
15) you think your commodore 64 is really neato/ what kinda chip you got in there, a dorito? guinevere33--weird al--"it's all about the pentiums"

24) i haven't moved from the spot where you left me/ it must be a bad trip shiroi_chi--pink--"just like a pill"
25) i guess we didn't have to kill her/ don't feel so bad though
