The Song Meme-ory Game
I saw this over at KB's and I just had to play. Here's the rules:
Step 1: Put your media player on random.
Step 2: Pick your favorite lines from the first 25 songs that play.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song the lines come from.
Step 4: Cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly and give them credit.
As these songs get guessed, I'll put them up for download. Right click and save as on the song name. Don't cheat and use Google either!
