I’m sure we’ve done this before.
Here’s how it works: post a few lines from a song. Identify the songs, and where possible, the artist. Bonus points for naming multiple artists if the song was covered.
No peeking (at Google)!
Here are a few to get us started, all from heavy-ish rock genres:
R1: Every day sends future to past
Every breath leaves brings me closer to my last
R2: Shut me down
Knock me to the floor
Shoot me up
Fuck me like a whore
R3: Pick a crime from the menu
Pick a sentence and a venue
And pay up the down payment called bail
The system’s for sale
R4: Feelings are intense
Words are trivial
R5: I’m a perfectionist
And perfect is a skinned knee
R6: *In the headlights
Of a stretch car
You’re a star *
R7: So follow me into the desert
As desperate as you are
