1. On your current playlist, hit shuffle and pick the first twenty-five songs on the list (no matter how cheesy or embarrassing).
2. Write down one (or two) line(s) of the song. Try to avoid lines that include the title.
3. Have your friends comment and see if they know the songs.
4. When someone guesses correctly, strike out the line and list the correct name of the song next to it.
(Note: I had to go through about 50 songs to get 25 that had words and weren't author-unknown folk tunes or jazz standards.)

10. I can feel the knives inside my brain / I stand alone at the threshold of my pain
11. My footsteps are ticking like water dripping from the tree

16. Bodies without minds / I hear you're the one with the bleeding heart

18. So it's time we take a ride / We can cast all of your hang-ups over the seaside
19. I'm just a simple guy, I live from day to day / A ray of sunshine melts my frown and blows my blues away
20. i had dreams long ago / of the love i would surely know / but it didn't turn out like that

25. So many tears I was searching / So many tears I was wasting, oh.
