Step 1: Put your mp3 player on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 40 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song. (I've skipped the Spanish language songs.)
Step 3: Let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Bold the songs when someone guesses correctly.

1. Bury me softly in this womb.
2 Based on your smile, I’m betting all of this might be over soon.
3 We live on a mountain right at the top.
4 What I'm searching for, to tell it straight.
5 Heartbeat, why do you miss when my baby kisses me?
6 September, 29th, 1984, dear so and so.
7. You wired me awake and hit me with a hand of broken nails.
8. I’ve been a bad bad girl.
9. If I could open my arms and span the length of the isle of Manhattan.
10. Oh please don't you think baby that I am wrong to cry, yeah.
11. I want you to understand, you're under observation now, you and your monkey gland.
12. I want you soft in the middle.
13. While I'm far away from you, my baby.
14. I've been sinning I've been livin' I've been beaten.
15. Every finger in the room is pointing at me.
16. Apartment in New York, London and Paris.
17. When I was eight I was sure I was growing nerves.
18. This is a song about Susan.
19. Hello little boys, little toys.
20. So I'm back, to the velvet underground.
21. You think I'd leave your side baby?
22. You’re not ready for the world outside.
23. Hey now girl, what's the matter with me?
24. What else should I be?
25. I see your sister in her Sunday dress.
26. Early in the morning, risin' to the street.
27. It's a sweet sensation over the dub.
28. Long as I remember the rain been coming down.
29. In our endeavor we are never seeing eye to eye.
30. Some people say my love cannot be true.
31. One, two, three, four, tell me that you love me more.
32. I have tried my hopes have blossomed.
33. Unsure of what the balance held I touched my belly overwhelmed.
34. You and me are the disease and the germs are spreading.
35. Norm life baby, we're white and oh so hetero and our sex is missionary.
36. Everything that keeps me together is falling apart.
37. You liked me til you heard my shit on the radio.
38. It's not her fault that she's so irresistible.
39. Help, I have done it again.
40. There's a broken beam inside of the big big bridge.

3: Hyperbalad, Bjork

27: Man I don't know the name of the song but it's Gorillaz, first album, track 6ish, certainly before Clint Eastwood.
30: NIB, presumably by Black Sabbath
37: I don't remember the title. I'll guess "Shit on the Radio" by Nelly Furtado

2 - Cocoon, Jack Johnson - my favorite song by him!
15 - Crucify, Tori Amos

I knew #8 too, and I would have gotten #38 if you'd put it in Spanish...
