Quiz Answers

So how did you like the quiz? I know it was a challenge but I did say it was obscure lyric Saturday. Don't be discouraged if you had trouble, no one got all the songs. I'm looking at ideas for the next one. Some of them include a single artist and multiple choice for the answers. If you have any thoughts or suggestions please send them my way.

Okay so the way these songs were chosen was I put my entire iTunes library on shuffle and pushed play. After filtering out music without vocals, these were the first 20 songs that played.

And now for the answers:

"Hello, I'm a Truck" by Red Simpson

That wasn't fair, I did know more of them than I wrote. I demand a recount! Hanging chad!

I knew you knew more of them. I thought it was odd that you missed some of them.
