While I was checking out the facebook this evening, an addiction for which there appears to be no cure, I discovered a friend of mine had created a quiz involving his iPod library. Following his lead, I put my ipod on shuffle and I’ve quoted the first line of each song. All I need is the song title and the show in which it appears. Some are easy, but I’m not going to lie, some are rather obscure, so knock yourselves out!
