ETA: i've added second lines to the unguessed ones - there are some in here that i *know* you guys know. it actually took longer to write out this time :-) and i know i'm mishearing a lot of those, gah.

from, uh, everyone: the music meme!

in general, if the first line of the song has the title in it, i've used the 2nd line, just to make it a little more interesting. also, i mishear lyrics all the time, so these may not all be totally right. just one more challenge! and if there's rap/talking at the beginning, that's your first line, folks! i admit to editing out a couple of multiples, because itunes shuffle? not very random.

1. so lately, been wondering, who will be there to take my place / when i'm gone you'll need love, to light the shadows on your face
2. they say that katie's got... Cobra Starship - Kiss my Sass - [profile] thejumpcut (they say that kid, he's got...)
3. ... too low to find my way, too high to wonder why / touched this place before, somewhere in another time (this starts about 1:30 into the song, fyi)
4. you love this right here, just admit it / we gonna hit it let's get it gonna stick it
5. loving you, like i never have before / and needing you just to open up the door (frequent appearance on this list by this band, i know some of you know it!)
6. yeah, this one right here goes out to all the babies' mamas, mama's, mama's mamas, babies' mamas mamas (come on, so easy now)
7. it's pretty good, the wine, and the way that we look / at ten to eight in the morning / yeah, just talking still awake
8. riding through the city on my bike all day / cause the filth took away my license / it doesn't get me down and i feel ok / cause the sights that i'm seeing are priceless
9. ... cannot look at faces that i meet / cannot get my punk ass off the street / i've been living on for so long (looking at you, [personal profile] thesamefire)
10. you know i try to be close to you Cobra Starship - Pleasure Ryland - [profile] ubixtiz
11. i heard you crying, somebody stole my soul / how could i be dying? i turned 25 days ago / yeah, we're all on the ground just crying out, somebody save me please  (I THINK, i always mishear the lyrics for this band.)
12. waking up this morning thinking this can't be real / they say there is nothing love can't heal / why don't you come on down so you can feel what i feel
13. the doors are closed and the walls are white / someone calls but i don't want to talk tonight / stay away, wanna stay away, i'm gonna be alright
14. i'm on the rocky road, heading down off the mountain slope / and as my steps echo echo, louder than before / another day is done / say goodbye to the setting sun
15. alright, so this is a song about anyone, it could be anyone, you're just doing your own thing and someone comes out of the blue, and they're like alright, what you saying, yeah, can i take your digits? and you're like, no, not in a million years, you're nasty, please leave me alone.
16. every single day, i walk down the street RENT - Take Me or Leave Me - [profile] thejumpcut
17. ... so many words for the broken heart / it's hard to see in a crimson love / so hard to breathe / walk with me and maybe
18. don't look at me / mmmmmm, ooohhh, mmmmmm. (etc). every day is so wonderful, and suddenly, it's hard to breathe / now and then, i get insecure from all the pain / i'm so ashamed
19. ... come on, yeah yeah... the daylight's fading slowly / but time with you is standing still / i'm waiting for you only / the slightest touch and i feel weak
20. maybe i'd be happy to let it all go / dedicate my life to making jelly molds / learn to cook and learn to sew (i'll be really surprised if anyone gets this)
21. goodbye four leaf clovers / hello on the right (? seriously, no clue.) / don't cry the fight ain't over / as you let it pass you by / i'm looking for a (title!)
22. tell the folks at home what you're doing roger (not really a full song, but ah, memories)
23. remember when we used to, are we gonna do that again / uh / i know you're afraid that it was over / but if you ever wanna come over i think i got what it takes to make you feel nice
24. you were a child who was made of glass / you carried a black heart back (hall pass? idk) down from your death / if somebody loved you they'd tell you by now (bandom alert!)
25. i could be james dean of the music scene / i could be big style at the... (uh, i have no clue).../ / but she can't seem to notice me / then was it worth now? / i could have big flash and a brad pitt smile... (ok, so the title is hiding in there!)

29. drink a baby down (?), are you in or are you out? / leave your things behind, cause it;s all going off without you / excuse me i'm too busy writing your tragedies
30. ...let's fly, let's fly away / if you can use some exotic booze, there's a bar in far bombay
31. if i expected love when first we kissed Jamie Cullum - Blame it on my Youth - [profile] ubixtiz
32. come and lay right on my bed, sit and drink some wine / i'll try not to make you cry / if you get inside my head / then you'd understand, then you'd understand me
33. i'm so sick and tired of the shit on the radio / mtv they only play the same thing no matter where i go / i see ashanti in the video / i want something more
34. sent out the morning birds to sing of the damage / now that the calm's returned i know i can't manage / you're standing in my doorway / though he's asleep in my bed / the steady murmer always in my head (bandom alert!)
35. a wind it blows through the trees / claiming those with some leaves / and the thunder rolls / these crashing seas / like a tender kiss / holds it's heart in me
