If you have a lot of time on your hands, you can take this 100 question quiz to show how well you remember the songs of the 80s. If you're really old, like pqbon, and just watched MTV's I Love the 80's Strikes Back, then you should score a 100 on this one. If you're like honeyfields and were still learning to say "better" in the 80s, then you might not do as well. I got a measly 36.5, partly due to being too tired to go through all 100 questions, and mostly due to my hatred of the 80s.
We hear the playback and it seems so long ago
Another one Christine pointed me to. I scored a 61, though I should note that whopping ten points I received for knowing Eagles lyrics:
parakkum: 83. Warm smell of colitas Rising up through the air Ok either 1)You've read The Straight Dope or 2)You are a god. Either way 10 points.
They missed option three: this song was played at every high school dance you ever attended. As, indeed, it was.
I loathed most 80s music. Even during the 80s, when I was stuck listening to it because I had an older sister. I don't think I'd watch an "I hate the 80s" show if that imaginary counterpart came out, because that might require my listening to said music.
Shane got 74.5. I got 84.5. I think it's fitting that my score was in the 80s on an 80s quiz.
