This is an 80's Lyrical Awareness Quiz. I scored 46, which isn't bad, but isn't great either...

I got a 40.2...however in fairness, I was born in 1984...

I must note thought, The REM song along with the Garth Brooks song were from the 90's.

also, i didn't get points for Jesse - it's Jessie??? if it was jessie's girl - wouldn't Rick's girl be gay???

sry if im giving away any answers...

Actually, Tsunamy, the REM song came from Document, released in 1988.

I got a 4.2... I wasn't much into pop music during the 80's. And there must be a cultural factor included as well: I didn't even know most of the items to choose from in the generation factor :unsure:

I thought it was so hard, I didn't take it. ^_^

I was born in 82, but I listened to the Ramones, The Sex Pistols, and a lot of early rap.

I lead :P

My results are:

Hi, Mom. Mom bonus of 20 points.
5 point bonus for telling me where you saw this. Thanks!
Final Score: 144

And I even got 2 wrong due to spelling (yeah after Jacksong even warned me that spelling counts) :(

I can still smell the smoke, had to work out my burnt out brain on this one! :wacko:

Actually I probably had a major advantage over everyone.
In the 80's I worked midnights running an injection molding machine and listened to headphones 8 hours for 5 and sometimes 6 days a week. :eyes:

Is that cheating?
