I LOVE that this one has an actual mix of eras and genres! That makes it so much more fun. :) (Putting my answers here so people don't insta-see the answers if they see my comment) 1. "Hotel California"--the Eagles 2. "The Twist"--Chubby Checker 3. "Stayin' Alive"--the Bee Gees 4. "Don't You Want Me"--the Human League (awww, I miss cheesy '80s synth music. I should go listen to some after the quiz.) 5. Dangit, didn't get this one. Although it did sound kinda familiar. 6. "American Pie"--Don McLean CLASSIC! 7. "I Want It That Way"--the Backstreet Boys (although, using the clip that CONTAINS THE TITLE kinda...yeah...) 8. I KNEW it was Barbra Streisand, but couldn't think of the song's name in time. Half a point for me. 9. "Waterfalls"--TLC 10. "Wonderwall"--Oasis 11. "Feelgood, Inc."--Gorillaz 12. "Smells Like Teen Spirit"--Nirvana 13. "Killing Me Softly"--the Fugees By the way, fun fact: The "he" who is "killing me softly with his song"...was originally an artist from earlier in this very quiz: Don McLean. 14. "Uptown Funk"--Mark Ronson & Bruno Mars 15. "My Generation"--the Who 16. "Take On Me"--aha 17. "You Really Got a Hold On Me" but I forgot the exact group name. 18. "What is Love?"--Haddaway 19. "W.A.P."--Cardi B and Meghan Thee Stallion 20. "Call Me"--Blondie 21. "House of the Rising Sun"--the Animals 22. Oof, I feel bad at myself for not getting this one. I like U2, dangit! 23. "Every Breath You Take"--the Police (aka, the Ultimate Stalker Song) 24. "Fallin'"--Alicia Keys 25. ...am I hallucinating, or did this clip almost not exist? A lot of silence, then ONE NOTE? Of COURSE I know this song! If we'd been allowed to hear it. Look, if something is that closely copyright protected...maybe don't use it on a quiz. I...nope, that put me in a bad mood and kicked me out of my zone. Sorry. It's not you, it's YouTube's SUPER-draconian copyright system. I just hate it so much. :(
