Song first line meme

Take all tracks in collection (all 3362 of them), shuffle, pick the first n in order, post the first line and see who can guess the song (artist, composer, whatever).

I've left out the instrumentals. There are a few.

Of the following, some should be trivial, some will be impossible, the rest will be in between.

  1. Oh, you wired me awake and hit me with a hand of broken nails.
    Rusty Cage, Soundgarden [livejournal.com profile] lokicarbis
  2. Je suis d'Allemagne

  3. It was an April morning when they told us we should go

  4. All aboard, all aboard, whoa-o!
    Last train to Trancentral, KLF [livejournal.com profile] tcpip
  5. Every dead body that is not exterminated becomes one of them: it gets up and kills, the people it kills get up and kill...

  6. Kyrié eléison
    Kyrie, this version from Missa l'Homme Armé by Guillaume duFay [livejournal.com profile] ghymoreids_mum
  7. Aller êrst lebe ich mir werde

  8. What do you do when you're falling, you've got 30° and you're stalling out

  9. Sanctus sanctus sanctus Dominus
    Sanctus, this version from Missa l'Homme Armé by Josquin Desprez [livejournal.com profile] ghymoreids_mum
  10. (After sanctus sanctus sanctus &c...) Give Me Release

  11. And if I die today, I'll be the happy phantom
    Happy Phantom, Tori Amos [livejournal.com profile] alecto23
  12. I am just a newborn, stranger in this town.
    Young Lust, Pink Floyd [livejournal.com profile] lokicarbis
  13. Here, in my head, I found you here and running around and following me
    Here, in my head, Tori Amos [livejournal.com profile] alecto23
  14. It's alright, I'll come round when you're not in.

  15. All alone all alone all by myself
    Fingertips #12, They Might Be Giants [livejournal.com profile] lokicarbis
  16. And through the life force and there goes her friend
    Bells for Her, Tori Amos [livejournal.com profile] alecto23


Ach, who has the time for more? I don't sure as hell.

11. Happy Phantom, Tori Amos
13. Here, In My Head, Tori Amos
16. Bells For Her, Tori Amos (that one came up for me, too!)

It's hard for me to say whether the kyrie, agnus dei etc are parts of masses or requiems or various other possibilities.

I have no idea why Tori made so many appearances.

Oh, wait, it might have something to do with there being seven albums worth of her in the playlist...

Yes, I'm kind of surprised that with 11 albums and 13 singles, I only got one of her songs in my sample! There is a lot of other stuff, too, of course, which must explain it.
