Name 5 Songs you know the lyrics to by heart...

and sing them out loud. Just kidding. Just tell me 5 songs you know the lyrics to by heart. I'll start

1. Santeria - Sublime (always makes me happy)
2. Don't Look Back - OMD (this is the first song I ever memorized as kid)
3. I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man - Prince (this song made me a fan!)
4. Microphone Fiend - Eric B. and Rakim (My favorite hip hop track of all time)
5. Hot Fun in the Summer Time - Sly & the Family Stone (Reminds me of my dad!)

Ok your turn!

I could name almost any 5 songs I've ever heard lol.
Me and my mom have photographic memories.
I can listen to most songs once and memorize the lyrics.

That could easily make my list too.

But let me pick Forever In My Life. Just ONE P-song will make this list, but I know dozens by heart, just this one actually DOES something to me, everytime.

Like ALL these songs, all from my PURE playlist, which lists 348 items, some of which are instrumental, but those I can hum along to.

Easy Living- Chet Baker.
Sound And Vision- David Bowie.
Pennyroyal Tea- Nirvana.
In Every Dream Home A Heartache- Rcxy Music.
Isolation-Joy Division.

Somehow, I think very few rap songs will make this list.

But *I* know all the words to "Rapper's Delight"! Too bad no one ever wants to hear them... sad

I'm pretty close to the same. Hearing a song only once, I'll recognize it sometimes even years later. Hearing it 2-3 times and I know it all by heart.
