OT Friday time waster alittle early

80s lyrics quiz. The comments on the answers are amusing, for certain
values of.

http://www.yetanotherdot.com/asp/80s.html

I scored 77 without googling and missed some really obvious ones, but
it's harder to do with kerrang in the background.

 

Too much effort

 

35.1 mostly from the metal that's in there, seeing as I was born
partway through the eighties.

 

74.5, not bad for saying I was only 6 when the 80's started.

 

They're not all 80s, are they?

 

Nope, it's off Pretty Hate Machine, released in '89.

 

One isn't. The one you get a whacking ten points for knowing.

Top track to dance to. As is 'Closer'

I was convinced it wasn't 80s, but the album was 89, that and sweet
child of mine made me feel old.

 

76.45 (including 10 for the one 70s song)

 

So I'm still the sad git who knows more eighties lyrics than the rest
of you?

<proud>

<backcombs hair, puts on loads of bracelets, applys eyeliner with a
paint brush>

<walks like an Egyptian for the hell of it>

 

who are you again?

 

*cough*

109.5
Without even rolling up my jacket sleeves......

Respect. Now I've earwormed myself with Mel and Kim's 'respectable'

 

Ewwww, you had to do that?

It really was my music, though.

47.5, and I find the vast majority of 80s music utterly detestable.

 

Old fart.

 

It was my revenge for your beating my score. Not that I'm competitive
you understand.

Even the awful stuff was good.

 

Hell, yes.

You just *had* to beat my 3.5 didn't you. I lost marks for not filling
in the questionnaire bit at the end.

 

36 with no googles. Annoyingly some of the answers I got wrong or
left turn out to be from some of my favourite albums.

 

I got told off for requesting "Closer" in Eddies in Birmingham as
"only chicks request that".
