Step 1: Put your entire media library on random.
Step 2: Post the first line(s) of the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 5: NO CHEATING
Note: I collect cover versions and some of these are not as obvious as they seem. Half a point for the song, half a point for getting the artist right too.

Yeah, I could only get the easy ones. I know I've heard covers of at least three of these, so who knows which artists you might have. I guessed one cover artist.
#3 on Danasaur's list is tantalizingly familiar. Dammit.

Jimmy Buffet, Disneyworld, and Universal Studios pretty much own Florida, so I get to hear that song fairly often.
