Meme: Blast from the Past

This is making the rounds of my flist; seized by a fit of nostalgia, I was unable to resist.

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and track correctly.
Step 4: Looking the lyrics up on a search engine is CHEATING! Though, really, can I stop you?
Step 5: If you like the game post your own.


I skipped instrumentals, of course, and classical. Also no duplicate bands. Somehow I ended up with 22, which makes up for the fact that some of these are pretty obscure. Have at it!
