In the interests of sheer good fun, let's play a game.
This is a meme that used to do the rounds on facebook and myspace (yes, myspace!) back in the day, as well as being featured on this here blog a few times and it's just good fun. Who doesn't love a pub quiz moment where you get to show off your knowledge?
The rules:
Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line (or a few ;)) from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Italicise the lyrics and post the details when someone guesses both artist and track correctly*
Step 4: For those who are guessing -- looking the lyrics up on a search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: If you like the game post your own
*I'll even add a YouTube link, because music is for sharing :)
What You Waiting For? - Gwen Stefani (Laura - way to go!)
Party in the USA - Miley Cyrus (Laura)
Making Me Look Good Again - Drake White (Laura)
If I Told You - Darius Rucker (Laura)
Somewhere On A Beach - Dierks Bentley (Laura)
You Look Good - Lady Antebellum (Laura)
Blown Away - Carrie Underwood (Laura)
Don't Dream It's Over - Crowded House (Laura)
