I'm alive! Alive! (cue music)

Oh the work, it consumes me. As proof of my continued existence, I shall do the ubiquitous music meme. As seen in its ubiquity and TWICE at Dr. Crazy's (proving she's no ubiquity snob =).

The rules:
Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Strike through when someone gets them right
Step 5: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING.
