i guess the meme, though i didn't see the original, is to take ten songs from your playlist and provide a line of the lyrics, and commenters have to try to identify what songs they come from.

So, I'm picking ten random songs and putting up a line from each of them. I'm just picking some of my favorite songs from my iTunes library, which has been hovering around 7000 songs for quite some time (higher as i add songs, lower as i ferret out duplicates and improperly-named files left over from my days of rampant piracy).

By the way, I am really enjoying the new iTunes 4.5's Party Shuffle playlist thing, which autogenerates a randomized playlist from whatever playlist or library you tell it to, and then lets you rearrange it as you see fit. Very handy to just have going, and whenever in passing I see a song I want to add to it, I just have to right-click and add it to the playlist and it goes into the mix where I want. Very neat. However, lame name.

1) You do your brain surgery too, mama, with your monkey wrench.

2) He drank a fifth of grappa, he told me that he loved me, and then he kicked me in the chest.

3) I'm sorry that I love you; it's just a phase I'm going through

4) Cars break down and people break down and other things break down too

5) I were lookin back to see if she were lookin back to see if I were lookin back at her

6) You'd better stay away from him: he'll rip your lungs out, Jim. I'd sure like to meet his tailor.

7) All I ask: Don't tell anybody the secrets, don't tell anybody the secrets I told you.

8) You can do what you want with me, but you let my little sister, let my little sister be.

9) I got a thing for assholes who tell good stories.

10) I've mellowed a lot since then, so it takes two-- Seconds for me to knock the hell right out of you.

Sad. I got one conversation via IM where Corey admitted he couldn't guess even one of them and he was sure it was all my angsty folkrock chicks.
But, no.
So I told him, and then he claimed that the Warren Zevon one was obvious and he recognized the Spin Doctors one now. But I don't know if I believe him, and he went off with his sense of musical invincibility shattered. :D My work here is done.
