Ten Songtitles on Subject X
 

Another game I saw on another forum that seems like it'd play pretty well here.

Basically, it goes like this: a category is posted. Then the next person replies with ten song titles that fit that category.

For example:

Ten songs that contain the names of US cities

1. Tony Bennett - I Left My Heart in San Francisco

6. Will Smith - Miami
7. Georgia Anne Muldrow - New Orleans
8. Sufjan Stevens - Chicago
9. The Decemberists - Los Angeles, I'm Yours
