I now appear to be able to work the iTunes shuffle function, so it's my turn at the First Lines Quiz at last!

So, here are the first lines of the first ten tunes Shuffle gave me, sans instrumentals and the trivially obvious ("Blue Jean, I just met a girl called Blue Jean"). 1 point for song title, 1 point for artist, extra credit for special insights into my music collection e.g. "That song is usually by X but I bet you're listening to the cover version on the Return to the Forbidden Planet soundtrack" :-)

Comments screened, answers on Monday evening.

1. Every pupil in the classroom will answer the same if you ask them

2. I want to shake up this world and not to feel so useless

3. Put your head on my shoulder baby, things can't get any worse

4. We arrived at the gig looking rough; not happy, we'd all had enough

5. In the entrancing dell we laughed and sometimes fell

6. Seems like it was only yesterday when momma told me don't fall in love with the first girl that comes your way

7. The trouble with your brother, he's always sleeping with your mother

8. I never thought I'd miss you half as much as I do

9. You've done it all; you've broken every code

10. Let me put my arms around your head, gee it's hot, let's go to bed

A big six points for [livejournal.com profile] bibliogirl! Sorry, I don't have that cover version.

4 points - I should deduct a sliver for inversion of brackets, but who from? You give me one version, [livejournal.com profile] bibliogirl and the Gracenotes db another, and the sleeve notes a third...

3/6, good brackets! It is not the LS version.

Ah well. Maybe you'll kick yourself later when I post the answers. Maybe you will remain blank.

Again, six points.

None of your wild guesses have hit the mark.

6 points, as you may have ascertained. The only one to recognise #2. (I don't know that I'd've recognised it from just the first line)
