I shamelessly stole this from [livejournal.com profile] atara.

Here is the latest music meme.  I queued up of songs, set shuffle and grabbed a line or two out of the first fifteen (or so) songs.  Since I'm at work and don't have access to my full playlist, you might notice a bit of a theme running through the limited playlist that I have here.  A couple of these are fairly obscure, but most are pretty easy.  I tried to pick lines from each song that would make it fairly easy to identify if you know the song in question. 

See how many you can get.

1) Hey Hey Joe Joe Whatcha know whatcha know

2) The newspapers shout a new style is growing, but it don't know if it's coming or going,

3) Down in the street where lovers meet, that's where I'm waiting for you

4) We can dance if we want to, we've got all your life and mine

5) I've got twelve disciples and a Buddha smile

6) Try as I might - try as I may, yes I'll try anything to make you stay

7) He has his future in a british steel

8) I'm seeing my way for the first time in years

9) Being real is one thing, being nothing is something, but at this point there's something wrong

10) Don't tell me that they're anti-social, somehow not anti-social enough

11) It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things and people tend to pass you over because you're not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water or stars in the sky.

12) It's getting harder just keeping life and soul together, I'm sick of fighting even though I know I should

13) Waitin', watchin' the clock, it's four o'clock, it's got to stop

14) One man on a lonely platform, one case sitting by his side. Two eyes staring cold and silent show fear as he turns to hide.

15) Don't be afraid to be weak, don't be too proud to be strong

Definitely without hats.

I agree about that being a good song by Kershaw. Didn't get nearly as much airplay as it deserved, IMO. Maybe I listened to the wrong stations, but I only remember hearing it played once or twice when it first came out.
