This came back around and I did it this time. This time swiped fom [livejournal.com profile] penguinicity I set iTunes to shuffle and take the first 20 songs. Quote them here. You tell me what song in comments and I cross them off. Some are easy. Some are...well...if you get them, you must be stalking me. 3 of them can't be googled. I tried.

1. And wet rose she from the lake and fast and fleet rode she/ With half a form of a maiden fair and a jet black mare's body

2. She was a Gemini on the cusp of Mars/ She holds me back while she goes too far

3. It's so hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand

4. D to the I to the A to the M/ O to the N to the D to the pearls of love -[livejournal.com profile] sunneyonePrince ANd The New Power Generation- "Diamonds And Pearls"

5. Just cry, tears are made to cry let it go and just cry I'm telling you...

6. I may not know what you're going through/But time is the space between me and you [livejournal.com profile] corpslave Seal- "Prayer For The Dying"

7. And there are voices that want to be heard/ So much to mention but you can't find the words

8. I saw the devil cry in pain down in Barcelona/He looked so alone there, I swear

9. Come back baby cause I'd like to say/I've been around the world back from Bombay [livejournal.com profile] sheraraRed Hot Chilli Peppers- "Around The World"

10. Get down, real low down/ You listen to Coltrain, derail your own train now who hasn't been there before? [livejournal.com profile] corpslave Sheryl Crow "If It Makes You Happy"

11. Only Noah saw it coming, 40 days and 40 nights/ Took his sons and daughters with him, yeah they were the Israelites[livejournal.com profile] penguinicity The Hooters- ""All You Zombies"

12. So down the main drag we ride with the engines open/If there's a fire inside that's the one thign going

13. Don't you know my tears will burn the pillow/ Set this place on fire 'cause I'm tired of your lies [livejournal.com profile] mmc327 Lisa Lisa And The Cult Jam "All Cried Out"

14. With love we sleep with doubt the vicious cycle turns and burns

15. An innocent bystander but somehow I got stuck/ Between a rock and a hard place and I'm down on my luck[livejournal.com profile] penguinicityWaren Zevon "Lawyers Guns And Money"

16. I took the turn and turned to/Begin a new beginning

17. The moment I jumped off of it/ Was the moment I touched down[livejournal.com profile] mmc327 Alanis Morissette "Thank U"

18. You think you found a dream/ Then it shatters and it seems/ That Alisha rules the world

19. No one ever speaks about the monsters

20. She's the only one who knows so off the little queenie goes/ To flaunt her ill-begotten diamonds and her elevated nose

21. So all you freak punks and all you cool Ginos/Pump up your Jeeps and brass down your chinos[livejournal.com profile] penguinicity Bran Van 3000 "Forest"

22. So here's the way I'm gonna break it down/Speak my mind any time cause I've got the master plan/Power in my soul, strength in my hand/ I'm going up north to claim my land

23. The flowers that we stole from San Jacinto/They're in the vodka vases by the window

24. It was just a mirage so I hid in the garage until someone called your name

25. I don't worry about all your reversible talk /As significant as the death of alternative rock

9. Jumped right out at me ^_^ Red Hot Chili Peppers, All Around the World (or is it just Around the World?) from Californication. Ah, high school.

17. I *think* it's Alanis Morisette, from that song where she ran around nekkid in the city in the video. Maybe.


I feel rather dorky for not knowing more of these.

And I don't know whose version that is, but it's got a couple changes in it. I was afraid I'd been messing with it, and double-checked.
"And wet rose she from the lake, and fast and fleet gaed she, one half the form of a maiden fair with a jet-black mare's body."

I don't ken any of the rest.

Who am I? Umm... that's a tough question. You turned up in Maugie's LJ and I followed the thread and saw that line in your quiz, and by accident it's one of my all-time favourite songs. No big deal. I'm that sort.
