Put your music player on shuffle. Post the first line of the first 15 songs that play, no matter how embarassing*. Strike out songs when someone guesses the artist and track correctly. Google is CHEATING! Cheating gives you hiccups, don't do it.

1. Oh Thunderhead, you're a man with a problem - Thunderhead, WASP, guessed by Valonia
2. Here we go, vertigo - Test for Echo, Rush, guessed by Valonia
3. I heard there was a secret chord - Hallelujah, Leonard Cohen, guessed by Clare-dragonfly and Cazrolime
4. It's easy to fall in love
5. Why try? I know why
6. Oh this is America, the place to find a home
7. In the time we spent together
8. You and I, we are strangers by one chromosome
9. Somewhere in the distance, I hear the bells ring - Too Late for Love, Def Leppard, guessed by Valonia
10. I never thought I would get to know ya
11. Hit my snooze alarm for the twenty seventh time
12. I don't know just where I'm going, I don't know, it's been so long
13. Jessie is a friend - Jessie's Girl, Rick Springfield, guessed by Dancingleaf and Merencara
14. There's a sinister game the children play - Laughing in the Hiding Bush, Bruce Dickenson, guessed by Valonia
15. Out on the border line, somewhere between heart and mind

* I did have to skip over 10 instrumental songs and 2 songs not in English, but other than that, these are what played randomly.

Hoorah! You are a merciful deity. :D

I feel your pain - I rarely get any, probably because my tastes are odd, and I'm older than a lot of my online friends. Plus, living in different countries probably makes it tough - I doubt you've ever even heard of the band in # 10...

I'm tempted to google them and see now, on the promise that it's to assuage my curiosity rather than to pretend I worked it out. I know I've heard a song about finding love out on the border line (or something similar-sounding) by a female singer but I can't for the life of me think who it was.

You may Google, as long as you don't answer afterwards! By all means, assuage your curiosity!

The song about love on the borderline is a guy, though! :D

My curiosity is assuaged! Your prediction that I wouldn't know the band was spot on. XD

I thought about it some more and realised I was thinking of pushing love over the borderline rather than finding it there. Google informs me that it's a Madonna song. And now that musical enlightenment has been achieved, I think it's time for bed. Goodnight to you!
