Music Monday

I'm doing something a little different this week. I'm copying Chaz and Monty who were copying someone else when they did this meme last week. I've done this one before, but it's been long enough since then that I think I can safely recycle. Because I'm too lazy to go get my iPod out of the car, I'm going to open up iTunes and hit shuffle. I will write down the first couple of lines of the song UNLESS the title is revealed in it and leave it to all of you to guess the songs.

1. "We are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong, searching our hearts for so long. Both of us know it..."

2. "Don't you fret Monsieur Marius, I don't feel any pain..."

3. "On a hot summer night, would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?"

4. "...how you thrill me, uh-huh...nearly kill me, uh-huh...I heard about you before, I wanted to know some more, and now I know what they mean. You're a love machine."

5. "I'm waking up at the start of the end of the world, but it's feeling just like every other morning before..."

6. "Hey! Hey! You! You! I don't like your...No Way! No Way! I think you need a new one!"

7. "...And I need you, Baby. Oh Baby, you got me on my knees. You've got me begging, Baby, Baby, please..."

8. "...the smile I had has gone away, those that steal are gonna pay...today"

9. "I know you have questions, same ones as me. How long has it been? How long will it be?" (#7, #8, & #9 are all from the same soundtrack)

10. ...I die a little...I wonder why a little. Why the gods above me who must be in the know, think so little of me they allow me you to go."

11. "God that was strange to see you again. Introduced by a friend of a friend."

12. "Didn't I say I wasn't ready for romance? Didn't we promise we would only be friends? And so we danced, though it was only a slow dance..."

13. "...I ain't got the time and if my Daddy thinks I'm fine...I won't go, go, go."

14. "It was a recipe for disaster, a four-course meal of no-sirree. It seemed that happily ever after was happy everyone was after me."

15. "I hear she's kickin' ass across the board and rocked 200,000 highest score and just in time to save the world of being taken over. She's a warrior."

Please play along in the Comments section or at your own blog (just let me know so I can come and guess. I'm really bad at this meme, but for some reason I love it anyway). What do you think, Scott? Are you going to try it?

I may have to try this Melessa. It looks like fun.

I know that the first one is Pat Benatar, Love is a Battlefield, but the rest aren't ringing any bells.

Over to my blog now to see what my iTunes comes up with....

I also knew the Pat Benatar one. 7, 8, & 9 sounded familiar but I wouldn't have gotten them without the soundtrack hint. I still had to flip through the soundtrack to figure out which ones they were.

Dreamgirls:
7 is I need you Baby
8 is Step into the Bad Side
9 is Patience

Some of the others are familiar but I have no idea.

aka_Monty

DID YOU STEAL MY iTUNES PLAYLIST? ;)

1. Love Is A Battlefield (Pat Benetar)
2. A Little Fall Of Rain (Lea Salonga)
3. You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth (MEATLOAF!!!!!)
4. Honey Honey (ABBA)
5. How Far We've Come (Matchbox 20)
6.
7. I Want You Baby (Beyonce)
8.
9.
10. Every Time We Say Goodbye (Ray Charles is the version I have)
11.
12. This Night (Billy Joel)
13.
14. One Little Slip (BNL)
15. Please Don't Tell Her (Jason Mraz)

I think one of the reasons I love this meme is because I always find new songs to listen to. :)

Pat Benatar was easy ...

13 is Rehab by Amy Winehouse...

I thought 3 was from "Bat Out of Hell," but I'll defer to someone who seems to know better ...

... and the rest I don't think I've ever heard!

(6 isn't Get Off My Cloud, is it?)

I don't know why I'm so wiped today, but I am. I'm going to take the easy way out, congratulate AKA Monty on her whopping 10 out of 15 score on yesterday's list and post the answers. BUT, before I do that, I need to thank
thatgirl in a big way for the awesome CD's she sent to me and the kids a few weeks ago. With the craziness that is working, having all four kids in school, PTA meetings on Tuesdays, Young Women meetings on Wednesdays, and Girl Scouts on Thursday; and two weekend trips-my house is still in disarray and that means my thoughts usually are too. All that as my pitiful explanation for why I didn't say THANKYOU! THANKYOU! THANKYOU! And "Nineteen" is my favorite as I'm sure you guessed that it would be, not that there's a song I don't love on the entire CD. The cool thing about my crappy taste in music is that my more discerning friends are constantly trying to educate me by suggesting songs on iTunes and sending my CD mixes. While the stuff on my iPod may not reflect it, I really do benefit from your advice and playlists. Thanks again!

And now...the answers:

1. "Love is a Battlefield" by Pat Benetar
2. "A Little Fall of Rain" by Lea Salonga
3. "You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth" by Meatloaf (I wore out a cassette tape AND a CD before I bought this on iTunes, I'm a bit of a fan of the Bat Out of Hell album.)
4. "Honey Honey" by ABBA (It was hard to leave "Honey" out of the lyrics)
5. "How Far We've Come" by Matchbox 20
6. "Girlfriend" by Avril Lavigne (supposedly the "clean" version)
7. "I Need You Baby" from the Dreamgirls soundtrack
8. "Steppin' to the Bad Side" from the Dreamgirls soundtrack
9. "Patience" from the Dreamgirls soundtrack (I swear I hit 'shuffle')
10. "Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye" Various Artists (mine is Natalie Cole from the DeLovely soundtrack)
11. "Your Ex-Lover is Dead" by Stars (Sandra-it's the one from the Degrassi season finale)
12. "This Night" by Billy Joel
13. "Rehab" by Amy Winehouse
14. "One Little Slip" by Barenaked Ladies
15. "Please Don't Tell Her" by Jason Mraz (I thought the video I posted over the weekend made this one a gimme)

Jennifer

Jennifer
