80s Lyrics Quiz
I found this thanks to Bebo's Retro Site: A lyrics quiz with lines from 222 1980s pop songs. The challenge: Name the song and artist/group. I decided to post the first 20 lines that I actually knew (minus the answers of course). To take the full quiz, head over to In The 80s.
1. Suckin on chili dogs outside the Tastee-Freez
2. Can you hear them? They talk about us, telling lies, well that's no surprise
3. Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
4. You take me by the heart when you take me by the hand
5. Are you happy, are you satisfied, how long can you stand the heat
6. Knew he must've been about seventeen
7. I am the maker of rules, dealing with fools
8. Step on a crack, break your momma's back
9. Everyone you meet, they're jamming in the streets
10. Every time I see you falling, I get down on my knees and pray
11. I said to my reflection 'Let's get out of this place'
12. Didn't know how lost I was until I found you
13. I'm about to lose control and I think I like it
14. Write it on a pound note, pound note
15. We are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong
16. Out on the road today, I saw a deadhead sticker on a Cadillac
17. I know her love is true but it's so damn easy makin' love to you
18. Oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones
19. No April rain, no flowers' bloom, no wedding Saturday within the month of June
20. There's a skeleton chokin' on a crust of bread
I'll come back in a few days and post the answers in the comments for anyone who's curious.
