Meme-ories

I was checking out KB's site and I found this really cool Meme game. Now I'm not one to get caught in this meme craze that's been circling the blog world, but I thought that it would be fun to do this one. The object of this meme game is to figure out the song's title based upon the lyrics posted. NO CHEATING!

Here it goes:

Step 1: Put your media player on random.
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 and give them credit

[edit] I will add each song to my radio.blog as they are answered. I'm too stingy to add mp3's...ok ok...I'll add mp3's for select songs [/edit]
