Memesheepage: First lines of songs

[asterroc]

Occurred to me that despite the many iterations of this meme, I'd never actually done it. Well, been listening to music all day while doing laundry, so I figured it was about time I did it.

Put your music on shuffle, post the first line of the first ten songs that come up. Well, I'm posting the first line of the last ten songs that I played without skipping. If the first line contains the song title, put the next line that doesn't. If it's instrumental, skip it. Everyone else comment w/ the song names and titles - don't use teh intartubes, just your memory.

10) Just a castaway, an island lost at sea, oh - "Message in a Bottle" by The Police (the particular version I was listening to was a live version by Sting), jrtom
9) All of my purple life I've been looking for a dame
8) ...It seems to leave this troubled world behind
7) All the fear has left me now, I'm not frightened anymore - "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy" by Sarah McLachlan, jrtom
6) Blue jean baby, LA lady, seamstress for the band - "Tiny Dancer" by Elton John, jrtom
5) The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful stop me and steal my breath - "I'll Be" by Edwin McCain, best_ken_ever
4) I miss you confuse you make it easy - "Satisfy" by Guitar Vader, oh_chris
3) I'm back on board that '49 Ford in 1956
2) I've seen your face somewhere before I swear
1) Traveling in a fried-out combie - "Down Under" by Men at Work (punk cover by ???), best_ken_ever

That I have never heard of this game must be some sort of quantum anomaly. Sounds like I need to find myself a copy!

It doesn't have any of the dizzying effects of most FPSs either. It's MUCH easier two-player, btw. And the soundtrack during the game is all cute zombie barbershop songs. Unfortunately the soundtrack you can actually *buy* is instead remakes of 50's songs, but it's still decent.

Did I mention there's a "boss fight" where you have to piss into a reservoir while avoiding getting shot at?

Oh so it's like a typical Friday night for some people I know. :) But now I can see what all the fuss is about without the risk of arrest, awesome!

And doing it like a "pointer" instead of a "setter" too! :-P
