That's pretty hard. Scrolling through the first 20 I only got 3.

That test was totally made for me. I did pretty well (about 75%), but I spent quite a bit of time on it and I also pay unusual attention to lyrics. I think that is why I seldom have music on in the background. If somebody is singing something and I can’t hear exactly what they are saying (or if I don’t like the sound of the voice of the person who is singing i.e. Radiohead) I get a little twitchy. The only ways I listen to music are alone in my car or at home with headphones on so that I can devote my full attention to it. That is pretty weird since I can listen to talk Radio all day, and rarely find myself actually paying attention to what the people are saying. I guess if somebody really wants me to pay attention they have to sing to me! :lol:

Cool quiz.

Its geared toward a certain level of thinking about keywords & whatnot.

Difficult, but fun.

I'm just the opposite of JVO. I listen to the Music. Only after a number of listens do I even notice the lyrics.

Yeah, but both you and SQ know a zillion more songs than I do. I think my limited overall musical knowledge probably helped me!
