i don't know them too well, but better than the person who sent me the link.

56.5 points for me.

they give you an 80's lyric, and you fill in the missing blanks. way tougher than i thought!

answers come at the end.

[cuervo72]

I can't believe I didn't get #50. Shame on me! And #76.

88.5

[kurtism]

79.5 - looks like I need to bone up on my 80's schlock...

[cuervo72]

I'd say that's not too bad kurt :)

Would like to see how KickStand would do though.

[kurtism]

Actually, this has frozenrope written all over it :)

[cuervo72]

Ooohhhh, you're right! Not many disco songs there though ;)

[Scarecrow]

Final Score: 98.5

Probably spent too long on it. Don't know techno.

[Bonegavel]

60.5

Not bad for an idiot.

the 80's need to be destroyed.

But,,, it is an abstract period of time in the past?

[cody8200]

I got a crappy 45.5. ugh

[Celeval]

Skimmed it, know a bunch, will have to take this later. Hehehe.

[FishFan]

Uh, 124. Why in the hell do you get 10 points for the Hotel California lyric? I also got a lot that were worth 3-4 points that I thought were fairly easy.

[Frozenrope]

123.5.

yeesh, I feel like an idiot for missing a couple of those.

But 'in the name of Jesus' was a lyric by Front 242.

[Abe Sargent]

49 but here's the thing -

I think I went 0 for 20 on the Metal and hard rock stuff, 4 for 5 on the R&B, maybe 5 of 40 on the crappy lite pop and like 31 of 35 on the electorinc stuff.

(Numbers dont add up, I know.)

[cthomer5000]

I only looked at the first quarter and last quarter of the questions - 49.5

Maybe I'll finish it up and re-submit. It's just so damn long!

[CubsFan915]

113.

Damn, I didn't think I knew that many 80's lyrics.

[vtbub]

59.5

[mckerney]

10.45

[Swaggs]

108

[Killebrew]

-10.5 (I had to quit after becoming ill during question 4)

[Fido]

I got a 62 and thought that was ok until my wife took it and got a 135.5. Not sure if I shoudl eb sad that she beat me or sad that I married her...

[Tasan]

I should have done a lot better than I did, considering I grew up during the 80s, and that I listen to an all 80s station now. A lot I knew, but couldn't get with just the sliver they give you.

39.5

[Vince]

Can't believe I missed the White Snake one, and misspelled 'colitas.'

EDIT : 49.5

[rkmsuf]

50.5

[sabotai]

60.5

It was lower, but I went through each question and corrected my misspellings. Anyway, I'm ashamed. As someone who hates the 80's, I would have hoped for a lower score... :(

[tucker342]

ummmm 8.5.......

I'm glad I don't know my '80s music

[rufusjonz]

62.5 without much though

cool quiz

[Maple Leafs]

Egads. 101.5 without even going back for the ones I skipped.

(Did Pretty Hate Machine really come out in 80s? Dear god, I'm a hundred yeard old...)

[VPI97]

127

I'm a true child of the 80's

[Celeval]

120.5 Eeeeeeek.

[EagleFan]

109.5, I think the Hotel California one was worth a lot because of spelling, I mispelled it and got no credit for it.
