Credit to Lynn for the idea for this. This is, as you might see, the fourth fifth incarnation of this challenge. I've never finished it myself, but maybe this time, I can do it.

The challenge is simple:
Step 1: shuffle your playlist.
Step 2: write down the first 30 songs.
Step 3: start threads named after/themed around said songs.
Step 4: feel smug and awesome when you finish!

30 SONG CHALLENGE 2023
By Bee
Listen, I don't have a lot of variety to my music, it is 98% country and I'm not sorry. Unfortunately it doesn't give a ton of variety, nor do I have a plethora of characters, but I am determined.

---

You, Me & Whiskey Justin Moore & Priscilla Block	THREAD It was you, me, and whiskey all night long Sinkin' to the bottom of them country songs Fire burnin' hot 'til the last drop's gone Let's turn it up, turn it up 'Til we take that Black Label buzz too far And say them things that stay in the dark Ain't nothin' as sweet, ain't nothin' as strong As you, me, and whiskey all night long
One Night Standards Ashley McBryde	One Night Standards Well, I ain't Cinderella, but who is? Call me what you want if the shoe fits I ain't gonna say I never do this, 'cause truth is Lonely makes a heart ruthless This fits Angie Swan or Bronwyn Moony who I could be persuaded to bring back for something ~plotty!
Wishful Drinking Ingrid Andress ft. Sam Hunt	THREAD Maybe I'm just wishful drinkin' Give my heart somethin' to sink in Better make it two, nothin' I won't do For another round of me and you I know it's a shot in the dark Lookin' for what's left of a spark Throwin' 'em back like I got nothin' to lose It's a slow burn just like you Everybody says, "Give it time" But I'm feelin' like I'm stuck on rewind Throwin' 'em back like I got nothin' to lose It's a slow burn just like you I mean this SCREAMS Dabble to me, but #yolo.
Wasted on You Morgan Wallen	Wasted on You I don't always wake up in the mornin' Pour myself a strong one Ah, but when I get lonely I do Your memory gets burnin' Lean back on the bourbon Sure as hell can't keep leanin' on you
Next Thing You Know Jordan Davis	Next Thing You Know Next thing you know You're savin' money like never before Just to spend it all at a jewelry store Gettin' down on one knee on her mama's porch Just prayin' she don't say, "No" Next thing you know Your best man gives a half-drunk speech And you're sunburned on a honeymoon beach And your left hand's gettin' used to that ring And there the next two or three years go Next thing you know Honeypotts?
Then Some Nikita Karmen ft. Walker Hayes	THREAD I'll get over you and then some Day I'll hear this song and I won’t even Think about thinking about you Won't even be a double take in my rearview I'll get over you and then some Body's gonna love me like you didn't Every kiss will get me closer to closure Trust me, I ain't just gonna get over you I'll get over you and then some
Rock and a Hard Place Bailey Zimmerman	THREAD Between a rock and a hard place Red wine and mistakes Tears rollin' down your face When I walked out that door And that's when I lost it A midnight in Austin Damn, I'm exhausted What the hell's this all for? Is this where it mends or it breaks? Between a rock and a hard place ugh Jellon <3
You Didn't Brett Young	THREAD I could never hate you even if I tried Girl, I love you too much and I've loved you too long to fight It ain't always a bad thing saying goodbye And the last thing that I wanna be is a waste of your time There's nothing I could say To make you wanna stay Your heart made up it's mind I don't want you to lie one more minute You ain't done nothing wrong I'm not where you belong Don't let one teardrop fall Girl, you think it's your fault But it isn't I fell in love and you didn't gimme some unrequited love plz.
More Hearts than Mine Ingrid Andress	More Hearts than Mine If I bring you home to mama I guess I'd better warn ya She falls in love a little faster than I do And my dad will check your tires Pour you whiskey over ice and Take you fishing but pretend that he don't like you Oh, if we break up, I'll be fine But you'll be breaking more hearts than mine
Strangers Maddie & Tae	THREAD You see the me no one else sees And I see the you you don't show You've read every page in my story And I've read every chapter of your soul There's no way I found you on my own 'Cause loving you's like breathing, don't you know? How were we ever strangers? Seems crazy to me now Haven't I known you forever? 'Cause the thought of the days without You and all your love Have all but disappeared I'll never be convinced, baby, that you weren't always here How were we ever strangers? happy ship somewhere? XD I have used lyrics for thread titles recently lol
Strawberry Wine BRELAND (Originally Deana Carter)	THREAD I still remember When thirty was old And my biggest fear was September when he had to go A few cards and letters and one long distance call We drifted away like the leaves in the fall But year after year I come back to this place Just to remember the taste Of strawberry wine and seventeen The hot July moon saw everything My first taste of love, whoa-oh, bittersweet Green on the vine Like strawberry wine aww this makes me think of Sloane, whoops.
Last Night Morgal Wallen	THREAD Last night, we let the liquor talk I can't remember everything we said, but we said it all You told me that you wish I was somebody you never met But baby, baby, something's tellin' me this ain't over yet No way it was our last night I kiss your lips Make you grip the sheets with your fingertips Last bottle of Jack, we split a fifth Just talk about life, goin' sip for sip You, you know you love to fight And I say sh- I don't mean But I'm still gon' wake up wantin' you and me
HEARTFIRST Kelsea Ballerini	Heartfirst Met him at a party, accidentally brushed his body On the way to get a drink at the bar I couldn't wait 'til later, talking in the elevator Then we're kissing in the back of the car That voice in my head says to slow down But it can't see the way you're looking at me right now It may not be next week, what I need Then again, maybe it might be Could be forever or we might break That's just the kind of risk that we take My head is yelling that I could get hurt But I'm gonna jump right in Baby, with my heart first Antorie?
Almost Over You Jessie James Decker & Randy Houser	THREAD I wasn't lookin' for love I was getting on the right track I was about to head home 'Til you started talkin' to me like that And now you're kissing me slow With your hands on my back Oh, feels like we're falling in something Just like we used to
You Should Probably Leave Chris Stapleton	THREAD 'Cause I know you and you know me And we both know where this is gonna lead You want me to say that I want you to stay So you should probably leave Yeah, you should probably leave There's still time for you to finish your wine Then you should probably leave And it's hard to resist, alright, just one kiss Then you should probably leave
Religiously Bailey Zimmerman	THREAD I went looking at pictures I didn't wanna see They brought back memories You look happy, I guess, got the life that you wanted But it ain't with me You would think by now that I wouldn't care It's been a couple years And yeah, I've had my share of other broken up hearts But I only shed real tears over ours And now I'm in this cold bright light And this don't even feel like life 'Cause I don't have the only woman who believed in me Religiously And now I'm in the back of the church Praying just to stop the hurt 'Cause I don't have the only woman who was there for me Religiously
Flower Shops ERNEST	THREAD It's a beautiful day, she's been crying all night Aw, there's tears in her blue, bloodshot in mine This bender's been bending, it's hell bound to break My baby's had all she can take Mister, I'll take your roses If you cut off the thorns, she can't take no more I'll buy violets and daisies to hide all the crazy, it's gonna take all you've got Aw, it's a bad day for love, but a good day for flower shops this is on Daff's playlist too
Getting Good Lauren Alaina	Getting Good Once I get a little older, I won't worry Then you get older and it don't feel like it should I'm thinking once I learn to grow right where I'm planted Maybe that's when life starts getting good
Heart's in Your Head Renee Blair	Heart's in Your Head But when your heart's in your head And it's doing all the thinking When your will ain't as strong As the well you been drinkin' When you know what you should do But you do the other thing instead You put your hand on a flame When your heart's in your head
Wild as Her Corey Kent	Wild as Her She never wanted to be white picket fenced in Her heart's like a feather in a Tulsa wind Seaside breeze'll bring her to life And all them other boys say she's a goodbye girl She'll wreck your world And leave before the mornin' sun But here she is, free, layin' next to me 'Cause I ain't tryna to tame her love I keep the windows down and the wind in her hair Keep her heart hangin' on 'round every turn She ain't scared to get tied down, scared to get burned Just looking for somebody as wild as her Wild, wild
Just to See You Smile Tim McGraw	Just to See You Smile Just to see you smile I'd do anything that you wanted me to When all is said and done I'd never count the cost, it's worth all that's lost Just to see you smile When you said time was all you really needed I walked away and let you have your space 'Cause leavin' didn't hurt me near as badly As the tears I saw rollin' down your face
All to Myself Dan & Shay	Here in My Arms I want you all to myself We don't need anyone else Let our bodies do the talkin' Let our shadows paint the wall I want you here in my arms We'll hide away in the dark Slip your hand in my back pocket Go and let your long hair fall I want you all to myself To myself
The Last Time Taylor Swift ft. Gary Lightbody	The Last Time And right before your eyes I'm breaking No past, no reasons why Just you and me This is the last time I'm asking you this Put my name at the top of your list This is the last time I'm asking you why You break my heart in the blink of an eye, eye, eye
Memory Lane Old Dominion	Memory Lane If I could buy a house on Memory Lane I'd put my money down and I'd sign my name On that little corner lot where it don't ever rain And we'd stay good as new like a fresh coat of paint You'd be mine In the shine of a front porch light Yeah, I might as well live there, baby That's where I spend most of my time
Memory I Don't Mess With Lee Brice	THREAD That's a memory I don't mess with The girl I was the best with The one I was obsessed with Girl, you just don't get it I'd fall right back with one slip Always leave me helpless Don't hate me, I can't help it Gotta leave us where we left it You're a memory I don't mess with
Somebody Like That Tenille Arts	THREAD But I want that all in, fallin' Keep the fire burning like the first time feeling No matter what if I'm gonna love I'm gonna love somebody like that Kinda heart, open arms Says forever and will never ever take it back If I'm gonna love I'm gonna love somebody like that
For What it's Worth BRELAND	THREAD Bad habits, my second chances always turn into three and four Late nights, all them back and forth fights finally turn into heartbreak war I admit that I was immature and I was insecure I took advantage for granted having my hand in yours I don't know if I should say this but I can't make it worse Baby, you can take this For what it's worth I hope that you're happy now and that you found what you didn't in me For what it's worth I'd trade everything I have for what I had, I know that talk is cheap But for what it's worth I done did some growing up, I ain't out there getting drunk I can be what you deserve 'Cause now I see your heart, your mind, your every curve And your love for what it's worth
God Gave Me a Girl Russell Dickerson	THREAD God gave me a girl Girl gave me a kiss Kiss gave me a feelin' that I still get Every time I look in her eyes I don't deserve her and I don't know why She gave me her hand I gave her a ring Then as soon as I could I gave her my last name Now I'm gonna give her forever I knew what I wanted but He knew better God gave me a girl, mm I am not particularly religious but I like the ~vibes
Change Your Name Chase Bryant	THREAD I wanna dream your dreams Wanna make 'em all come true Dance every dance that you want to Every breath I breathe will be for you I wanna change your name I wanna call you mine I wanna make you smile At least a million times I'll give you all my love Every night and day If you say I can I wanna change your name, yeah Honeypotts?
Leave Her Wild Tyler Rich	THREAD Don't tame her, try to chain her The second you do you'll break her Don't dull that shine that caught your eye 'Cause you're afraid somebody will take her She ain't a dial you just turn on and off She ain't found, but she ain't all that lost If you're gonna love her, if you're gonna love her If you're gonna love, leave her wild If you're gonna make her, if you're gonna make her Make her smile, smile If you're gonna let her, if you're gonna let her Let her dance, let her sing, let her be whatever she wants to be Leave her wild Oh, leave her wild, yeah Leave her wild, leave he wild Leave her wild
