Do you know your 80's? Really??
 
http://www.yetanotherdot.com/asp/80s.html


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 12-11-2003 07:56 AM

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

88.5

kurtism 12-11-2003 08:25 AM

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

cuervo72 12-11-2003 08:27 AM

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

Would like to see how KickStand would do though.

kurtism 12-11-2003 08:28 AM

Actually, this has frozenrope written all over it :)

cuervo72 12-11-2003 08:31 AM

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

Scarecrow 12-11-2003 08:40 AM

Final Score: 98.5

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

Bonegavel 12-11-2003 09:04 AM

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 12-11-2003 09:25 AM

I got a crappy 45.5. ugh

Celeval 12-11-2003 09:28 AM

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

FishFan 12-11-2003 10:05 AM

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 12-11-2003 10:08 AM

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 12-11-2003 10:50 AM

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 12-11-2003 11:09 AM

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 12-11-2003 11:43 AM

113.

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

vtbub 12-11-2003 11:51 AM

59.5

mckerney 12-11-2003 11:52 AM

10.45

Swaggs 12-11-2003 11:58 AM

108

Killebrew 12-11-2003 12:04 PM

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

Fido 12-11-2003 12:33 PM

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 12-11-2003 01:06 PM

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 12-11-2003 01:09 PM

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

EDIT : 49.5

rkmsuf 12-11-2003 01:29 PM

50.5

sabotai 12-11-2003 02:32 PM

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 12-11-2003 03:03 PM

ummmm 8.5.......

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

rufusjonz 12-11-2003 03:24 PM

62.5 without much though

cool quiz

Maple Leafs 12-11-2003 05:33 PM

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 12-11-2003 09:35 PM

127

I'm a true child of the 80's

Celeval 12-11-2003 10:41 PM

120.5 Eeeeeeek.

EagleFan 12-11-2003 11:40 PM

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