Ooooh, meme!

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.

# 13 Rick Springfield? Jessie's Girl?

mine would be likely be nearly all instrumental or foreign language.

1. W.A.S.P. - Thunderhead
2. Rush - Test for Echo
9. Def Leppard - Too Late for Love
14. Bruce Dickinson - Laughing in the Hiding Bush

Are any of those right? I'm a bit rubbish at this meme but I love it!

I skipped the plain song when I did the meme... and the Gaelic folk songs.

Wow, jeez, I thought #3 was unguessed because no one had picked the right artist, not because no one had guessed it! It's "Hallelujah," by Leonard Cohen. Perhaps sung by Rufus Wainwright, or by one of the many other artists who has done that song, but Leonard Cohen and Rufus Wainwright are my official guesses.

3 - Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley! Or by one of the people who've covered it.

This is awfully exciting. I usually only know songs that have already been guessed on these memes.
