Song Lyric Guessing Game - No Prizes!!!

Thanks to the glorious GABSTAR for this idea. Basically what you do is play your music player on random (in my case mine is broken, so its my entire CD collection on the PC) and write the first line of the first bunch of songs down, and when people guess the title and artist right they are showered with sod all.

See how many you can get - I've done fifty since some of my collection is a bit obscure.

For my email readers, follow the link at the end of your email (it says "Posted by Algo to Wall Shadows") and comment on the site rather than send me your guesses by direct email so everyone can see your answers.

I know its easy if you just do a lyrics search online, but that's hardly the point. This is supposed to be for fun!

Oh, and the first one that came out was "Could it be this chemical attraction provokes an equal and opposite reaction?" which no-one should get, so I ignored it.

If you can, have a biscuit. There is one of my songs sitting in here though...
