Revisiting an old meme. Because I'm bored.

step 1: listen to all your songs on random
step 2: post the first line from the first 20 songs
step 3: let everyone you know guess and post what song and artist the lines come from.
step 4: cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly
step 5: looking them up on google is cheating
