this fucking meme took me more than a fucking hour!
Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first two lines from the first 37 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing. [i skipped tracks that didn't really have lyrics (about a dozen non-classical and about a dozen classical], of course, as well as tracks where i couldn't understand the first line(s) nor could i find the lyrics online [another dozen or so], and anything that wasn't a song [about half a dozen]]
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and track correctly.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: If you like the game post your own.

  1. cats and dogs are coming down / 14th street is gonna drown
  2. the news is out all over town / that you've been seen out runnin' round
  3. and you live life with your arms reached out / eye to eye when speaking
  4. i still don't know what i was waiting for / and my time was running wild
  5. georgia, georgia / the whole day through
  6. we wrote this song / it's not too short, it's not too long
  7. people try to put us down / just because we get around
  8. all i can ever be to you / is a darkness that we know
  9. something filled up / my heart with nothing
  10. this is how it works / it feels a little worse
  11. she's my baby / she belongs to me
  12. i'm a-gonna tell you how it's gonna be / you're a-gonna give your love to me
  13. one fine day / you'll look at me
  14. always alone, alone and blue / i've got no one to tell my troubles to
  15. well, how the times have change / looking back it seems so clear now
  16. hey let's party, let's get down / let's turn the radio on
  17. you couldn't even bring yourself / to stay, oh no, you had to go
  18. rhiannon rings like a bell through the night / and would you love to love her
  19. here i dreamt i was a soldier / and i marched the streets of birkenau
  20. i wanna live, i wanna give / i've been a miner for a heart of gold
  21. i'm on the line, i'm on the line / once i clean my mirror, i'm'a be feeling fine
  22. we're the reflection of imperfection / we come from the infinite place of limitation
  23. bend down low / let me tell you what i know now
  24. he met marmalade down in old new orleans / struttin' her stuff on the street
  25. when i'm walkin' i strut my stuff / and i'm so strung out
  26. all the king's horses and all the king's men / they couldn't put our two hearts together again
  27. warm beer and cold women / i just don't fit in
  28. never made it as a wise man / couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
  29. barricades and brick walls won't keep me from you / you can tie me down on a railroad track
  30. i believe that reality's gone / disillusion's real
  31. my brother's doing bad on my mother's tv / she says you watch it too much, it’s just not healthy
  32. love is but the song we sing / and fear's the way we die
  33. on the corner of main street / just trying to keep it line
  34. my my my it's a beautiful world / i like swimming in the sea
  35. after all the jacks are in their boxes / and the clowns have all gone to bed
  36. leaves are falling all around / it's time i was on my way
  37. now that she's back in the atmosphere / with drops of jupiter in her hair

18 is Rhiannon by... I feel it starts with a C like Cardigans or Corrs, but I'm almost certain it's neither of those two.
24 - Lady Marmalade? :P
25. Blister in the Sun by the Violent Femmes
28. How You Remind Me by Staind
34. Beautiful World by Colin Hay
37. Drops of Jupiter by... fuck, I should know this, it's the theme song for one of my characters. Train.

24, well, Christina Aguilera and Lil Kim and the like did a cover. I'm trying to think who the original was by. All Saints did a version, but I can't remember if it was the original or not, and I suspect it wasn't, but that's the one the furthest back that I can remember.

18 was... fuck. Fleetwood Mac?

28, if not Staind, probably Nickelback.

I almost want to say Red Hot Chilis but that was Under The Bridge. :P

I need to do more lyrics icons... I'm poking through my Limewire downloads lists moving things into playlists, too. Muuuuusic.
