The Rules:
* On your current playlist, hit shuffle and pick the first twenty-five songs on the list (no matter how embarrassing).
* Write down a couple lines of the song (avoid using a line with the song title).
* Have your friends comment and see if they know the songs and artists (for cover versions, they can guess either the original writer or the covering artist). (additionally, Iwillinitially screened comments for spoiler-avoidance)
* When someone guesses correctly, strike out the line and list the correct title and artist next to it.
* Using a search engine is CHEATING! Shame on you!
