Metafilter turned me on to this nifty 80's lyrics quiz, and now I'll pay it forward to you. Tip: to get your score unmodified by lame bonuses/penalties for your age, choose "Just Say No" to the generation drop-down at the bottom of the page. Oh, and spelling counts, so be careful.
My score: 113

Posted by: Don on November 14, 2003 6:15 PMI could do without the snotty commentary for every wrong answer...
Posted by: Scott Hardie on November 14, 2003 7:06 PM70 here, but I didn't listen to many of these songs deliberately,
just absorbed a bunch through osmosis. Would have been 60 except I knew "colitas."
108.5 - so close...

Posted by: Nathan Beeler on November 15, 2003 6:20 PM107 -- and I coulda kicked myself for some of the near-misses (including spelling & plural problems). :-P
Fun all the same ... lots of high school & early college scenes popping up in my head while I did the thing. ;-)
