Gakked from superbadgirl:
Put your iTunes generic mp3 player on shuffle and for the first 20 songs that come up, list the first line. Post them and see how many of them your flist can get.

Eep, several are on the tip of my tongue, but the only one I'm sure about is #12 - It's All Been Done by Barenaked Ladies.

[graculus.livejournal.com]

Yes, and I'd say Canadians may find themselves at an advantage. ;)

[llamabitchyo.livejournal.com]

The only one I can almost say is that #5 is on the album Swamp Ophelia by the Indigo Girls.

[graculus.livejournal.com]

Well,that narrows it down... :P

[superbadgirl]

Uhm. Ouch.

I think #3 is Creep by Radiohead.

And #16 is 12:51 by The Strokes?

I am at a loss for any others.

[graculus.livejournal.com]

My mp3 player seems to be set on the 'obscure' filter for some of these... ;)

And yes to both.

[atdelphi.livejournal.com]

Oh, #14 is White Winter Hymnal by Fleet Foxes, yes? I have that song!

[graculus.livejournal.com]

It is! That was one of a number I didn't think anyone would get... ;)

[atdelphi.livejournal.com]

It took me a while because I just recently got the song off iibnf.

[superbadgirl]

Total aside, but Fleet Foxes came for a photo shoot at my place of work some months back. It was a kick to see the Great Hall on their myspace page for a while. ;)

They all need to bathe more, but I do appreciate their music.

[randomling]

Er. Found via friends-friends, tell me to go away if you like...

17 is... U + UR Hand by Pink.

[graculus.livejournal.com]

Hey, I'm just happy that I'm not being completely ignored by the universe at large. ;)

Also, yes.

7. Maroon 5 - Until You're Over Me??

Other than that, I'm a little clueless.

[graculus.livejournal.com]

Resisting... resisting... ;)

[siluria]

LOL - ok, I opened myself up to that one.
