Music Quiz: 4 Decades of Music Hits
Last week’s competition could perhaps be described as the Falklands War of Music Quizzes, with Bruce (https://vinylconnection.com.au/) just pipping Rich by the thinnest of hairs (3 seconds).
This week’s quiz requires you to match the song to the decade.

It’s a bit of a speed contest, although it can get tricky when a song is near the cusp of a decade. I scored 24/24 in 0:55 – can you join me on 100%? Can you beat my time?
This follically-challenged contestant enjoyed your introduction this week. And I matched you exactly at 24/24 with 3:05 left on the clock. That was intense.

Did you get both hair jokes. The Falklands one might have been too obscure…

22/24: 2:48. The quiz was kind enough to say, “Nice, solid effort. We are so proud of you right now.”

I actually would have put Shannon in the 1950s if I could.

Falkland’s? I’m thinking ‘Shipbuilding’, I’m thinking Harrier Jump Jets, er…
Although my time was good, I got one wrong. Someone I’ve never listened to at all named Celine Dion. Was she big or something?

Huge voice, little soul. I do like It’s All Coming Back To Me, which has Jim Steinman and Todd Rundgren.

22/24 – one misclick and I missed Celine Dion

Celine Dion was all over the radio in my teens, so I find it pretty easy to match her to the 1990s.
