matociquala:So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool...
...For this exercise I just loaded the Rock/Pop tree, leaving out Amdient/Cosmic, Trance/Electronica, Soundtracks, etc, which still gives me 4743 tracks.

Sho'nuff

Jimmy Buffet - "Fins"
That's what you get for going stag!

My sister in-law's band. Woot! And, yeah, it's a dues paying tune.
The Night Before The War:
Jethro Tull - "Sweet Dreams"

Shriekback - Carrying Cameras
Don't shoot! I'm CNN!
Moment of Triumph:
Fleetwood Mac - "Little Lies"
You know, this runs pretty well with the war correspondent thing.

There's a fitting end.
suddenly i stop
but i know it's too late
i'm lost in a forest
all alone
the girl was never there
it's always the same
i'm running towards nothing
again and again and again
Funeral Song:
Joan Osborne - "Hurricane"
Live Fast, Die Hard, Leave A Lot Of Colateral Damage!

My sister in-law's other band. The usher's aren't shoing me out until I see the very last words roll up the screen
