On your current playlist, hit shuffle and pick the first twenty songs on the list (no matter how cheesy or embarrassing), and write down your favourite line of the song. Try to avoid putting the song title in the line. Then, have your friends comment and see if they know the songs.
...That is to say, the first twenty minus instrumentals, Korean, Arabic and anything else impossible for me to transcribe or google, Japanese in romaji, Chinese translated because my pinyin suxx0rz, yes I listen to a lot of non-English music you've noticed? Also minus anything blatantly self-defeating, i.e. songs that not only I wouldn't be able to identify either, but I'd have to make fun of you if you could.** (There were a surprising number of these.)
