First Line Game
 

Ok I saw this on facebook so I thought I'd bring it here because it seems like it would be more interesting here...

I'll post the first line/verse/whatever's appropriate of lyrics from 10 random songs (Nothing outrageous or whatever, skip a couple of songs if need be) from my iTunes and you guys have to say which artist and song it belongs to. 1 song per artist per list. Don't google it ffs. When my list is completed someone else can post a list.



1. If it keeps on rainin, levees goin to break - ixtlan22

2. In the tower above the earth, There is a view that reaches far - FaSho

3. Sittin' on my own, chewin' on a bone, a thousand million miles from home, when something hit me somewhere right between the eyes - FaSho

4. Corrupt, you corrupt, and Bring corruption to all that you touch. - khfreek

5. Momma loves her baby, And daddy loves you, too. - Janszoon

6. What kind of comedy is this all of the danger you’ve discovered? - FaSho

7. Home of the saints burn down the walls between spaces, between friends

8. Lean out your window, golden hair, I heard you singing in the midnight air - loose lips

9. I saw this film about some people who lived in a dome - Janszoon

10. It's time the tale were told of how you took a child and you made him old - Molecules

10? Lucky. The one I had to do on facebook was 50.
Anway:
2.The Seer's Tower-Sufjan Stevens
3.Talk Tonight-Oasis
6.I Was A Landscape In Your Dream-of Montreal

Edit: I call next list.

4. Take a Bow, Muse

That's all I got <.<

Yeah I saw one that was 25, but for the sake of keeping it interesting I made it 10. Both of you are right so far.

8. Syd Barret "Golden Hair"

Damn that's the only one I knew...

1. When the levee breaks- Led Zeppelin (or, originally, Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie.... I'm not gonna lie I looked it up but I know you were talking about the Zep version).

I did this on facebook with like 15

Number one is The Levee's Gonna Break by Bob Dylan. A fine song on that album too.

Pink Floyd—"The Thin Ice"

The Church—"Dome" (How are you liking that album by the way?)

number 10 is the Smiths' 'Reel Around the Fountain'. One of my favourite albums :D

You know every time I go to listen to it I swear to god something comes up like 3 songs in to the album. I like what I've heard but I promise I'll give it a legit listen sometime today.

Also, 1 more to go.

I googled it just to see what it was, but don't worry I won't spoil it.

Dac, the lyrics to When The Levee Breaks and The Levee's Gonna Break by Zep and Bob (respectively) are identical!

Yeah you'll find that a lot with Zeppelin...
