Here's a game I found off the Deviant Art site I'm a part of... Note that there are only 22 of these instead of 25. Some on the songs I cut out due to language.

Put alllllll your songs in your playlist, shuffle them randomly, take the first 25 and post a line of lyric from each, and people try to guess the song and artist (Google= CHEATING). I'll put your little names next to the songs you get right to keep people from guessing the same song over and over.

#1: Priests and cannibals, prehistoric animals. Everybody happy as the dead come home Shriekback - Nemesis. Nelly got this

#2: You've got a heart of glass or a heart of stone. Just you wait 'til I get you home Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls. Nelly got this

#3: So, where did you see me go. Its not the right way you know Cardigans.. What song, though? Nelly got the band right. Song - Erase and Rewind. Retrograde got this

#4: We are agents of the free. I've had my fun now its time to serve your conscience overseas (over me, not over me) REM - Orange Crush. Nelly got this.

#5: Stealing past the victims of the blissfully dead. Looking for the victim shivering in bed The Cure - Spiderman/Lullaby. Nelly got this

#6: Every morning on the front page. Big type headlines seen before Camouflage - A Place In China (Heavens Not). Retrograde got this

#7: Who could ever ask for more. Love without complications galore Dresden Dolls. What song, though? Nelly got band right

#8: There can only be one queen, one king Everyone voting, everyone competing

#9: I can't control myself sometimes. I think I'm sick, but I might be wrong Song - Out of Line. Nelly got song right. What band is this?

#10: 4, 3, 2, 1 Earth below us, drifting, falling Peter Schilling - Major Tom (Coming Home) Nelly got this

#11: And her family took her aside and and put their arms around her. They said, "Mary, won't you please come back to us now?"

#12: Don't phone me up, don't call around. Don't waste your time Orchrestral Manoeuvers In The Dark. Retrograde got this. What song, though?

#13: Jenny played keyboard, Johnny played drums. Called little baby and a big Bonhomme Men Without Hats - Pop Goes The World. Nelly got this

#14: Baby, your ship has come in. Baby, adventures will begin Jem - Wish I. Retrograde got this.

#15: One mistake's all it takes and your life has come undone Garbage - Breaking up the girl. Nelly got this

#16: One day I'll try, to give the world a view

#17: A wolf in sheeps clothing, the ultimate disgrace. Wrapped up as a gift of God exploding in your face

#18: Time every journey to bump into you accidentally. I charm you and tell you of the boys I hate

#19: You turn my water into wine, send a shiver down my spine Cause & Effect - You Are The One. Retrograde got this

#20: Over the mountain, and beyond the sun, five lovely cottages built into one

Okay, those are the lyrics. Good Luck!

If ANYBODY can get these, I'll have found a friend for life! You can see I'm permantly stunted by my fave selections below!!

NELLY'S FAVORITES:

#1 You are the King of the divan!

#2 From nothing to something
and something for nothing.
From no one to someone
from someone to same one
same old thing.

#3 See how the sun shines brightly In the city on the streets Where once was pity

#4 Stronger than reason Stronger than lies The only truth I know Is the look in your eyes

#5 Good people get sent to the attic, bad people get sent to the cellar

#6 One you lock the target, two you bait the line

#7 Trapped under ice, comfortably cold, I've gone as low as you can go

#8 in nervous convulsion crouches infant ape trembling

#9 Disillusioned, I was disenchanted, Forgot the love that had been implanted

#10 They said it wouldn't last, Much too much to ask, Your heart is made of glass

#11 This is it we stand alone, no one left to talk to, nothing left to see

#12 I live for drugs, they're great

#13 Fly boy was in the buttermilk hard, livin' fast, livin' large, 6 foot 4 and not an ounce of fat. When women asked, 'is you a fro Cat?' He said 'My dear, I'm more that that.
I'm the froest of the fro…'

#14 The love we share seems to go nowhere and I've lost my light

#15 And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind, the front of your dress - all shadowy lined

#16 All of her lovers all talk of her notes and the flowers that they never sent

#17 I was struck by lighting walking down the street, I was hit by something last night in my sleep

#18 My grandma says to your grandma, "I'm gonna set your flag on fire"

#19 Strobe lights pump and flicker, dry lips crack out for more.

#20
I'm a man)
I'm a geisha
(I'm a man)
I'm a little girl

#14 - Soft Cell, Tainted Love

#18 - Iko Iko, although so many people have done it, so I won't guess on an artist!

#20 - Berlin, Sex (I'm A...) - I love Berlin!

Sadly, that's all I could get right away, although a couple others are on the tip of my tongue (fingertips?)!

NELLY'S FAVORITES:

#1 You are the King of the divan!
Plastic Bertrand (I think)...not sure of the song name. My friend says this to everyone all the time! He's all into all the Belgian pop stuff (It means, basically, you're a couch potato/lazy etc... I think anyway!)

#2 From nothing to something
and something for nothing.
From no one to someone
from someone to same one
same old thing.

#3 See how the sun shines brightly In the city on the streets Where once was pity
Electric Light Orchestra, Mr. Blue Sky (love that song!)

#4 Stronger than reason Stronger than lies The only truth I know Is the look in your eyes

#5 Good people get sent to the attic, bad people get sent to the cellar

#6 One you lock the target, two you bait the line

#7 Trapped under ice, comfortably cold, I've gone as low as you can go

#8 in nervous convulsion crouches infant ape trembling

#9 Disillusioned, I was disenchanted, Forgot the love that had been implanted

#10 They said it wouldn't last, Much too much to ask, Your heart is made of glass

#11 This is it we stand alone, no one left to talk to, nothing left to see

#12 I live for drugs, they're great
Confessions of a Knife! The song name is escaping me though... but that's a great tune!

#13 Fly boy was in the buttermilk hard, livin' fast, livin' large, 6 foot 4 and not an ounce of fat. When women asked, 'is you a fro Cat?' He said 'My dear, I'm more that that.
I'm the froest of the fro…'

#14 The love we share seems to go nowhere and I've lost my light
Tainted Love!!! I think Soft Cell did this originally, but I have about a million covers of it

Hehe... Duran Duran... The Chauffeur I think

#16 All of her lovers all talk of her notes and the flowers that they never sent

Wow, You did REALLY well!

#9 is Satellite by Depeche Mode, you got the album I think

You were close on #12-- My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult, "A Daisy Chain 4 Satan" ("I live for drugs, they're great, they're great, I could never afford drugs!")

Maybe I should have a word bank for the other artists... My music is a little dated.

Think Ministry, KMFDM, Skinny Puppy, Front 242, Nitzer Ebb, Oingo Boingo, Dead Milkmen, Phychedelic Furs, and Erasure.
