Gakked from weirdweb, but a shortened version.
Basically, it's set your mp3 player to random and write down your favorite phrase for each one. The challenge is for your readers to recognize what the lyrics come from.
I did ten.
1. And they call me happy-go-lucky/They don't know the hurt that's hiding inside
2. I wanna lay like this forever/Until the sky falls down on me
3. Could you look me in the eye/And tell me that you're happy now
4. What makes you different/Makes you beautiful
5. Poverty stole your golden shoes/It didn't steal your laughter
6. If you believe/They put a man on the moon, man on the moon
7. If I could wear your clothes/I'd pretend I was you, and lose control
8. Why do I always have to say, love/come on, come on
9. Stars and planets taking shape/A stolen kiss has come too late
10. The barely blooming 18 wants to know/What's keeping her from searching
Good luck. I go for obscure.

I'm fairly sure I'll kick myself, but...who were the rest of the tracks by?
