There's a lot of lyric quizzes on Listology, so it was high time I stuck my hat into that ring. Couple that with this game showing up on socialretard's website right here, and then throw in the iPod I got for Xmas... well, I couldn't just sit around, could I?

If all of these get guessed, I will be highly surprised. (In particular, if there's anyone else here who has heard #15, it'll be a damn miracle.) But let's see how many do get guessed. There's a couple hangers in there that shouldn't be too difficult.

#19: "Kielbasa" by Tenacious D.

(Hey, I got one! These are usually very hard for me.)

Hell yeah!

Damn, yours are hard man! A lot of rap, some of which seems familiar but I just can't get them. The only one I know is:

3. "Mark David Chapman" - ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead

Hey, you did better than I did with yours - I didn't recognize a single one. :-)

And actually, only #4, #8, #11 and #12 are rap songs. #15 I guess loosely qualifies too, but it's closer to electroclash. (Which is odd, since I generally despise that genre.)

Yeah, this is a very popular game in LiveJournal Land. I'll throw my hat in the ring:

4. Richard Hell and the Voidoids - "Blank Generation"

I'll see if any more come to me.

Yep!
