It's time for a music meme and contest. I love all the music memes that go around the web. I think they are a fun peek at what people listen to, even the embarrassing or silly songs. I haven't had a contest around here for a while, so I will make this into a contest.

The first person to get all of these right will win a $10 gift certificate for iTunes. If nobody gets all of them, then I'll pick the first person to get the most correct.

This is truly random, I had the entirety of my music choices on shuffle. Some of these are gimmes, some are more obscure. I also skipped any instrumental pieces, you know, so I could avoid trying to spell out the rhythm of the notes.

I will leave the contest open until 12:01 PDT tomorrow night Sunday night April 24th (to give me a chance to get more entries and actually check the answers), so there won't be any crossing out of the lyrics until after that. To enter, leave your guesses in the comments with a way to contact you, e-mail or blog. Have fun!

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both the artist/movie/musical/whatever and song title correctly (there are a couple on here that I will be lenient about artist).
Step 4: No cheating. No google, yahoo, asking a friend, etc.
Step 5: If you like the game, post your own list!
