The Music Game (Re-loaded)

(125 posts)
  1. I thought we could try the music game again. It got a little overwhelming before -- I think there were too many lists going at one time! So, let's try to do one list at a time and see how that goes. Once one list is finished, the next person can post one. Let's say if two days pass and a list isn't finished, the person who wrote it can give the answers and the next person can go. After all, some of you have such cool taste in music that none of the rest of us will have a clue. *grin*

    Here's how it goes. Put your iPod (or whatever) on shuffle. Type the first line of the first 15 songs that come up. Then, everyone guesses the artist and title of the song. Once 5 have been guessed correctly (we'll lower the number this time), that list is finished, the person who posted it can fill in the rest of the answers, and we'll all move on to the next person's list.

    If you want to do a list, say you're in, and we'll let everyone go in that order. I get to go first, because -- quite frankly -- I'm starting the thread! *Mwa-ha-ha*

    1. Some say we're born into the grave.

    2. Once I knew a girl in the hard, hard times.

    3. When I'm cold and alone, all I want is my freedom -- a sudden gust of gravity.

    4. Distant flickering, greener scenery, this weather's bringing it all back again.

    5. Which drink did my memory drown in?

    6. Ani auni vevyone. Hashem yashav li. Ezrati, umafalti, atau.

    7. Who would sell their soul for love? Or waste one tear on compromise?

    8. Did I slip? I know I stumbled. Did I trip? 'Cause I know I fell.

    9. Mama, I've found someone, like you said would come along.

    10. Yesterday he said my eyes were fading fast away.

    11. I have your good clothes in the car, so cut your hair so no one knows.

    12. When I was young, I knew everything.

    13. [Song title here], a new mother cries.

    14. Mobile woman, buckle down your boots.

    15. New York is dangerous, littered with thieves, and we've no morals here, we just do as we please.

    12) That is Pink.

    (I very very much hate to admit it but I love her! I don't have any of her albums, though why I don't I'm not sure. That song she has " So what " ....my boyfriend laughed when he first heard it thinking about how it was so me, he played it when he got home....and yeah it is. Always ready for a scrap. When I'm going to take a round of him I now hum that song as I walk his way, and then he knows what is coming. Lol. I like that " Please don't leave me" ...cause really if you're with a "so what" chick..you just might want to run away from home lol.

    sooooo I don't know if i should have been allowed to participate on your list sister. but oh well. I did. haha.
    oh and btw I never got the chance to look at Amanda's list before she posted the answers because I don't have a computer anymore. I have to come use moms. Therefore I didn't miss a Tyler Hilton song. I just didn't get a chance to answer it. haha.

  10. Well, looks like 5 from that list have been done, and I don't recognize any of them anyway, but what is that song with my name in it?! And I would really like to know where I could meet some crazy boys. *grin*

    Also, hahaha at Steph! I would feel compelled to make that clarification, too!

  11. stephanie -
    i know the song - who's it about?

    Posted 1 year ago #
  12. well. it's an assumption. but we believe it's about the father-in-law(would be)... because he is in fact the nicest man you'll ever meet. does that make sense to you?

    yeah levy weavy. take a listen to that album from that perspective and it puts a crazy spin on things.... its such a harsh album... but oh so very good too! but clearly the entire album is a slam slam slam at some of the most talented and beautiful people I have ever known.

    Well i guess its fair steph. i guessed some of yours too. yeah to be honest i did not know the name of that Manchester O song either. but i love it. they are great!

    I will give it a couple more days see if anyone else cares to guess any more... haha
