That stupid LJ song thing

I: Load my playlist on random.
I: Pick my favorite lines from the first 10 songs, excluding those lines which contain the song’s title.
I: Post those lines.
You: Guess what song each line comes from.
You: Don’t use Google or any other website which would allow you to easily derive the answers

1. It’s true today I saw it from the plane/ aeroplanes were never built to fly.
2. Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
3. napoleon/ wore a black hat/ ate lots of chicken/ and conquered half europe
4. “Gee my life’s a funny thing, am I still too young?”
5. And she said, “I’ve swallowed a secret burning thread/ It cuts me inside, and often I’ve bled”
6. It swings/ It jives/ It shakes all over like a jelly fish,
7. And of the midnight picnic/ Once upon a time/ Before the rain began…
8. and they stood at the edge of the earth to see the view/ they threw stones into space and she fell and he did too
9. If I am dancin’ Roll up the floor./ If I am whistlin’ Whewt me out the door!
10. Can’t you see the sunshine/ Can’t you just feel the moonshine

    Whee!

    I love having games to play today.

    I feel like I should know 1, but I can’t place it. The only other one I know for sure is 2 which is Tiny Dancer by Elton John. Or William Huong. Hee.

    Argh. I know some more of the words to 1. but I have no idea who it’s by or the title. It goes something like, “stars can’t fight the city lights, they’ve turned their backs on us, blah blah… deep down, deep down, don’t look down, something something people trapped alive… we’ve got a female pilot who’s not afraid to die…”

    Now it’s going to annoy me until I figure out where I’ve heard it. I’m thinking it’s a pretty obscure song.

    #6 – “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” by Queen.

    I can just hear Freddy Mercury’s voice singing it. 🙂
