I don't expect anyone to get most of these. To me, this kind of meme is like watching Alex Trebek reading lyrics or movie quotes - frustrating and somewhat annoying. ;)
Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random.
Step 2: Post the first line(s) from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song. (Skip the instrumentals, the remixes and the mashups)
Step 3: Let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
