imperfectly

Ooooh, a game!!!

Step 1: Put your iPod or whatever on random.

Step 2: Post the first line from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.

Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.

Step 4: Star the songs when someone guesses correctly.

Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
