Noooo! If only I'd done one more. :(

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

I did warn you. :D

[mayoisms.livejournal.com]

Smart ass. :p

What I really wanted to know is how do you get the lyrics to accompany your playlist, without jotting them all down ofcourse.

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

I just jotted them down. Not sure if there's a way to make lyris accompany your playlist.

[wimmeke.livejournal.com]

That's what I thought. Most of my spiritual / Brazilian music I don't even understand with my concious mind. I guess I could write down what it sounded like, but who's going to guess those right ? ;-)

[rane-ab.livejournal.com]

Whee! I'm in shared first place! *puffs chest up* ;p
Ok, so I also knew 12, 20, 31, 33 (and 44, 46 and 48, but not well enough to know the lyrics), but I guess on the whole I recognised most of the songs I could be expected to recognise. So I'm not going to hide in shame right now. Nope. Absolutely not.
Also, I don't think I got more than two answers right with anybody else (though most others only posted twenty quotes), so I guess my taste in music is most compatible with yours, when considering my flist. :D

Well, with 12, 31 and 33 I deliberately picked a more "obscure" line, though er. There's no excuse for 20.

And yay! Someone with compatible music tastes! :D
