I got 4/10.

[sonofsanta]

4/10 as well - though 1 of those 4 I only got by going "hmmm, inadvisably large collars, inadvisably large hair... looks early 90s to me" and picking the contemporary song from the options.

 

So three I knew, a couple I'm surprised I got wrong, and I'm disappointed Chesney Hawkes was nowhere to be seen.

[Ad93]

I got 6/10, should I be worried that I knew that many?

 

A

[Domino]

7/10 ...whoops

[Earthling]

I got 6, too.

 

I think 'Ring my Bell' was the only one I was absolutely sure about. I guessed most of them and I can honestly say I'd never heard, or heard of, 8 out of the 10.

 

Does that say something about me or about the state of contemporary music?

 

Answers on a postcard, please.

[themightymrp]

Woohoo! 5 out of 10, not bad I suppose

[Andrew_C]

I got 4, and looking at the ones I missed, they would have been guesses!

[rickjames]

7/10, alright I guess.

[unixman_again]

6/10 but a couple were lucky guesses.

[LincolnE]

1/10... then again, All but one of these were way before my time.

[fiza]

Your results

 

6 out of a possible 10

 

 

Not bad! Straight to the top of the charts...for one week!

[rich_tech]

5 out of 10

[hardtailstar]

8/10.....

 

I probably only knew one and the rest were educated guesses because I knew some of the options for answers couldn't have been the picture because I knew those songs/artists

[cobra427col]
