If you like music you will have fun trying to figure out the songs to the lyrics that I am going to post.
First things first....if you want to play on your blog here are the rules:
Step 1: Put your ipod on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line or two (unless the first line reveals the song title) from the first 25 songs that play. **If the first line had the title in it, I blanked it out.**
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and song title correctly. (I'm not sure I can strike through my words so I will highlight them and write the song as they are picked).
Here goes: (Wow...only three weren't guessed...Good job everyone!)
