Don't think I've actually done this one before.

Step 1: Put your iTunes or equivalent on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 50 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Bold/Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING.

I'm skipping foreign language songs, instrumentals, and radio/spoken word stuff. Note some of these are quite easy, for obvious reasons. :) And shuffle really played havoc with me - I have more artists than this is making it sound like. >_> 20,000 songs on the iPod and I'm getting tons of repeats.

Seems like a very avant-garde album. Probably influenced by Stravinsky, Webern, and Varese. Also, two Aussie-related tracks? Maybe I'm trying to sell it to tang and Asynca...
