Oh meme oh my...

Not sure who I got this from (though I have the vague impression it was kitschaster.) Take out your iPod or whatever, set it on random, and make a note of the first line(s) of each of the first 20 songs it brings up. Then post it and let people try and figure out what the songs are or something. Anyway,here's mine.

1. Don’t know what a fanzine comprises.
2. And there’s a starwind rising.
3. They tell me I am all right now.
4. When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me.
5. I peeked in to say goodnight, and I found my child in prayer.
6. The poison comes in such a pretty bottle.
7. I open the door and the light hits my face.
8. There’s a quarter outside of the spaceport gate.
9. Two and two, too and fro in the street the king’s men go.
10. But I’ve been working in the coal mine going down down down.
11. If what’s done is done, why won’t the wind forget?
12. It’s just a piece of old space junk, they told Rosie at the Yard.
13. Oh Danny Boy, the alarm is not yet ringing.
14. The star of rage is on my head, the white star’s on my hand.
15. There’s a danger zone.
16. When we were good she had a way with me.
17. There's a spider in the rose, and it's an old friend of mine.
18. Ooh I need your love, babe; guess you know it too.
19. I shouldn’t love him; he’s lazy.
20. I've been drinking with Gonvannon, of all drunkards, count him first.
