I got this from another board, apparently it's from someone's livejournal:

The Liza Mix Disc Scavenger Hunt

Are you up for it? Here's the basic idea: Below are twenty song topics. You find a song—any song of your choosing—that matches said topic. Here are the songs:

1. Your favorite song with the name of a city in the title or text.
2. A song you've listened to repeatedly when you were depressed at some point in your life.
3. Ever bought an entire album just for one song and winded up disliking everything but that song? Gimme that song.
4. A song whose lyrics you thought you knew in the past, but about which you later learned you were incorrect.
5. Your least favorite song on one of your favorite albums of all time.
6. A song you like by someone you find physically unattractive or otherwise repellent.
7. Your favorite song that has expletives in it that's not by Liz Phair.
8. A song that sounds as if it's by someone British but isn't.
9. A song you like (possibly from your past) that took you forever to finally locate a copy of.
10. A song that reminds you of spring but doesn't mention spring at all.
11. A song that sounds to you like being happy feels.
12. Your favorite song from a non-soundtrack compilation album.
13. A song from your past that would be considered politically incorrect now (and possibly was then).
14. A song sung by an overweight person.
15. A song you actually like by an artist you otherwise hate.
16. A song by a band that features three or more female members.
17. One of the earliest songs that you can remember listening to.
18. A song you've been mocked by friends for liking.
19. A really good cover version you think no one else has heard.
20. A song that has helped cheer you up (or empowered you somehow) after a breakup or otherwise difficult situation.

Extra tracks, if you have more room:
21. A song you've listened to while fucking/masturbating. AND/OR
22. A song not in English—preferably a foreign-language version of an English-language hit.
