singing is the lowest form of communication

[bossymarmalade]

1. you say guns, i say pistolas / well if you got beef son callate la boca
2. don't treat me like i'm a trick, i won't treat you like you're a prick
3. honey i been waiting, waiting patiently / let me unlock your heart, boy--i think i got the key -- gettin' lucky, the chipettes (miss_saigon)

7. i turned up your tv and stomped on the floor just for fun - the old apartment, bnl (indirajames)
8. you looked at me with that sweet smile and said / something they won't let me repeat

10. school's back in session GET READY FOR A LESSON!! - ADIDAS, jc chasez (trumpeterofdoom)

13. and de way dey true nice it finga' lickin' - hey mama, black eyed peas (overloved)
14. goodbye--please don't cry / we both know i'm not what you need - i will always love you, dolly parton (indirajames)
15. now i don't mind chopping wood / and i don't care if the money's no good - the night they drove old dixie down, the band (indirajames)
16. now i gotta decide if i'm'a help raise your mind / seems like the ultimatums or me that's no fun - nothin' else, jt (escapist_xbq)
17. eeeeehn the lights are blinking i'm thinking / it's all over when i go out drinking - insane in the brain, cypress hill (grissecon)
18. this way is a waterslide away from me / that takes you further every day - say it ain't so, weezer (cathybites)
19. see the purple of her eyes / the scarlet of my lies - love rescue me, u2 (escapist_xbq)
20. your man talkin' bout hummers and little cars that only fit in his little house little garage - show me your soul, diddy & pharrell (flabbergast)


Whoo! Now I will go attend a talk about the US occupation of Iraq, and when I come back I expect answers, people!!

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

[marej.livejournal.com]

11. Still D.R.E.

Well let me tell you the biggest pimp on motherfucking Earth is her momma!

[marej.livejournal.com]

Saying that it's Dre and Snoop would be redundant, right? And now I got the whole damn CD playing in my head. Good thing I love it so much. woot!

Re: Well let me tell you the biggest pimp on motherfucking Earth is her momma!

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

16. damnnit, a song by La Timberlake I can't remember

[imogenics.livejournal.com]

Urg, I mean Hard To Handle. Too Hot To Handle would be something...else.

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

Yes indeedily do! I am delighted that you got the OC theme song, ahahhahah!

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

4) More Than a Feeling- I'm guessing by the emoting that it's the nysnc version?
6) Hard to Handle- Black Crowes (or Otis Redding)
10) All Day Long I Dream About Sex- JC Chasez
14) I Will Always Love You- please tell me it's the Dolly version
18) Say It Ain't So- Weezer

whee!

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

I'm guessing by the emoting that it's the nysnc version?

ahahaahahah! Yes indeed.

please tell me it's the Dolly version

IT SO IS. Although I do listen to the bombastic Whitney version once in a while, because it's so fun to belt out!

And you are correcto on all the others! Whoo-hoo!

[chrismm.livejournal.com]

Here's how old I am--I saw #4 and went "Boston!!!! eeeeeeee!!!" *grins* The (few) others I would have gotten everyone else has gotten too--The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and All Day Long, and whatnot.

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

Hee! I do know the Boston version, I just like the syncian version better. *G*

[chrismm.livejournal.com]

So, I've looked and looked and looked, and I can't FIND the syncian version. *pouts* Where does it live? If it's not available legally (and I tried, truly!) would you be willing to share? I'm dying of curiousity, now.

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

Download with my blessing! *g*

nsync - more than a feeling (http://www.tamarindball.org/ashley/nsync%20-%20more%20than%20a%20feeling.mp3)

[chrismm.livejournal.com]

Cool! Thank you so much.

[callsigns.livejournal.com]

9. U2 - Two Shots of Happy, One Shot of Sad
16. Jup - Nothin' Else
19. U2 - Love Rescue Me

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

whoot! You have identified the U2 songs before anybody else! That's awesome, yo.

[callsigns.livejournal.com]

::waves solitary flag of U2 IDness::

I love music memes!!

[robanybody.livejournal.com]

I thought #12 was Chicago's Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now, but I am horribly, horribly wrong, so I give up on this entire meme. I admire anyone who actually guesses these right because I am awful at it.

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

*giggle* These memes have a special power to make people forget the lyrics to all the songs they know, never fear. I still love you. *mwah*!

[robanybody.livejournal.com]

Thank God for that because after seeing that I missed Hey Mama by the Black Eyed Peas, I have lost my WILL TO LIVE! Somebody take away my CDs now because I do not deserve them!!! And other such drama queen tactics.

[unlovablehands.livejournal.com]

4. "More than a feeling," we'll guess the NSync version.
7. BNL, "The Old Apartment"
10. JC Chasez, "All Day Long I Dream About Sex"

and, yeah. I just guess easy ones. (nevermind the previous entry in which I TYPED THE WRONG SONG TITLE >:O

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

ahahh! And right on all counts. *g*

[strippedhalo.livejournal.com]

I am ignoring all other answers! All successes and failures are MINE and MINE ALONE! I love this one!

4. More Than a Feeling - *NSYNC (it's all in the inflection)
6. Hard To Handle - Black Crowes (or possibly... Otis Redding?)
10. All Day Long I Dream About Sex - JC!!
14. I Will Always Love You - Whitney Houston (or possibly Dolly Parton)
15. The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down - Joan Baez?
18. Say It Ain't So - aka my favourite Weezer song ever!

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

The artists dip back and forth (which is no fault of your own), but on the song titles you have COMPLETE SUCCESS!! Whoo-hoo!!

[overloved.livejournal.com]

like rice and peas and chickin stuffing!

13. hey mama/black eyed peas

fonetiks arrr funn!!

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

Hee hee hee! I am delighted that you got that one!

[overloved.livejournal.com]

i only got it cause you spelled it phonetically. it's a distinctive line. plus, i listen to that song when i work out.

[kimannebb.livejournal.com]

13. and de way dey true nice it finga' lickin'

Is this one "Hey Momma" from The Black Eyed Peas?
:-)

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

It sure is! Excellent work, brudda. *g*

[trixiesfic.livejournal.com]

Oh god, I KNOW #20. I know it. I just can't figure it out. Argh!

Is it something by Nelly? This is going to drive me crazy until someone gets it.

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

Heh! It is somewhat related--it's "Show Me Your Soul" by Diddy, Loon, Pharrell etc., which is off the Bad Boys II soundtrack just like that Nelly/Diddy/Murphy Lee song! Association, man. You get partial credit. *G*

[grissecon.livejournal.com]

17. Cypress Hill - Insane in the Brain

... am I the only one who knew that? *blush*

[miss-saigon.livejournal.com]

Damn you! I thought I was going to get to be the one to guess it;)

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

You perhaps are. Which only makes you the COOLEST. *g*

[flabbergast.livejournal.com]

i clooo-osed mah EYYYYYES and i slipped awaaaayyyyyyyyy!
Ahahahaha. Fabulous.

Also! #20 is Show Me Your Soul by the Diddy, Pharrell, Lenny Kravitz and Loon.

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

Absolutely right! I have MAD amounts of love for that song, yo.

[miss-saigon.livejournal.com]

3. honey i been waiting, waiting patiently / let me unlock your heart, boy--i think i got the key

Give me a clue tell me what I need to do, to get lucky with you:)

The Chippettes, Get lucky with you.

You realize I'm going to be horribly embarrassed if it turns out they covered that from a non-animated musical artist, right? On the other hand the Chipmunk Movie rocked and if you don't think, I don't even want to know you:P

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

HOORAY!! I was desperately hoping that somebody would get this, and you have pulled through!! That song fucking rules (and if anybody sang it other than the Chipettes, I don't know about it either), and between this and identifying Cypress Hill, I think you've cornered the obscure on this meme. *G*
