Bleme Lite: First Lines of Songs

[dvandom]

Snurched with major modification from stankow.

1. Put your media player on shuffle.
2. Post the first lines of the first five (not 25, I'm not THAT hard up for ways to waste time) non-instrumental songs that come up, no matter how embarrassing. If you know it's a cover, put an asterisk (another mod, just because I have about a dozen tribute albums loaded).
3. Let your readers guess the song and artist.

It'd probably be a good idea to write the answers down on a piece of paper, too. Just in case you don't have your own playlist memorized.

I don't have lyric sheets for all of these, so I might mis-hear some words.

1. "You think that we connect, that the chemistry's correct..." - "Spiderwebs" by No Doubt: kail_panille
2. "Dear mother, can you hear me whinin'?"
3. "Verdant land of forest green, dark and stormy plains..."
4. "Hello, children! It's time for an important lesson, with Professor Flans!" - "LMNO" by They Might Be Giants: finback
5. "Kick out the jams, brothers and sisters!"

FWIW, the sixth to come up was "Kyle's Mom's a Bitch". Which was on stankow's list. :)

Well I feel terribly uncool for only knowing this one, but I believe that #1 is No Doubt--"Spiderwebs."

I think I know #2, but the artist's name escapes. "I'm hungry, I'm starving, I'M BLEEDING TO DEATH EVERYTHING'S FINE!"

One of the horde of alanisalikes.

Nope.

Not that song, huh? Rats.

#4 is off Here Come The ABCs, but I can't recall it right now. I THINK it's "LMNO".
