Picked up this activity from Tuuli-chan's journal:
"On your current playlist, hit shuffle and pick the first twenty songs on the list (no matter how cheesy or embarrassing), and write down your favourite line of the song. Try to avoid putting the song title in the line. Then, have your friends comment and see if they know the songs."
1. For tonight I went running through the screen doors of discretion
2. My love is strong enough to last when things get rough
3. Just like a child, stubborn and misconceivin'
4. But then the Holy Spirit revives my soul again
5. Isagiyoku Nugisuteru Hadaka ni naru Jiyuu wo Mau Bara no Youni / Tatoe Futari Hanarebanare ni Natte mo Watashi ha Sekai wo Kaeru
6. Green to brown, brown to white, white back into green
7. Mokushi Kushimo/Shimoku Kumoshi/Moshiku Shikumo
8. Shinjite iruno Shinjitai kara / Uso ni Kirawarete itai
9. Aa kuudou nari/Soha, kuudou nari nari
10. And little Sir John in a nut-brown bowl proved the stronger man at last
11. Ain't no big decision, you know what to do
12. Once upon a time there was light in my life, but now there's only love in the dark
13. Come to this battlefield called life, life, life...
14. And someone way down here loses someone dear
15. Cada instante un diamante / de hoy en adelante
16. Tu rostro lo tengo fijado / en el lado de adentro de mis párpados
17. We're makers of peace, and wisdom of ages
18. We're gonna keep on loving boldly / keep on loving boldly...
19. Here lies a poor distressed maid/by Death so cruelly she was betrayed
20. His jacket was a deep sky-blue, and curly was his hair
I wonder if Jobiska will know the ones I think she will!
Romanization for the lines in Japanese was taken from various lyrics sites. Me, I have no clue about the accuracy of the transliterations, and only the foggiest understanding (acquired from the same sites) of the meanings.
I was surprised by how many of my truly favorite lines give away the title of the song--so I settled for second best in several cases. Often, my favorite part of a song is a portion of the melody rather than of the words.
