Music Quiz: 1990s Song Title Beginnings II
Congratulations to all of our quiz participants last week. But a special mention goes to Jim, Rich, Aaron, 2Loud, J., and Tony, who all scored 100%, with Tony finishing at a blistering pace with 5:23 to spare.
This week’s quiz is centred around the pop hits of the 1990s – can you name the first word?

I scored 32/32 with 3:45 to spare. How did you get on?
Aphoristical
Graham Fyfe is fascinated by pop music, and he may be the only blogger in the world to cover Neil Diamond and Ariana Grande.
So close to perfection but ended up with 31/32 when I got the penultimate clue wrong. Since the ’90s were the decade when I turned 30 and they weren’t my formative musical years, I’m proud of my score.

Maybe we should take a 2000s quiz (the decade I turned 30) next.

28/32. Some good – but not good enough – guessing.

Yes, I think it’s easier for the 90s kids.

I wouldn’t call myself a 90s kid, not with my approaching birthday, but it was certainly the decade I zoomed in on music wise and remain stuck in

30/32 for me. Couple that I thought I’d genuinely never heard of… though turns out I had actually heard one of them.

Think there were a couple at the end that I just common-sensed.

31/32 with 3:45 to go. And it was Eve 6 that got me and I knew the answer but clicked too fast dammit.

You know, I have no idea who Eve 6 are. Must have got theirs at the end with common sense/process of elimination.

Looks like I missed out on them – it’s just an obvious word pairing when there are just a few left.

A bunch I didn’t know by name. If I heard their hits I’d prob know them. 20/32

Having lived through the decade, there are definitely a few songs I don’t need to hear again…

I did better than I thought I would…31/32. It helped skipping a few and coming back once I narrowed down a few choices.

About 11, but my titles were much more fun, uncliched and often more obscene than the originals.

Stuck it up this week 20-32. The 90s were sort of my lost decade. 😀

Hah. No not in that sense. In early 90s I was living in San Antonio Texas and kind of absorbed the whole country pop stuff – hell I had boots and a cowboy hat and learned to line dance. Then after moving back to DC area kind of focused on classic rock and Springsteen so not as up on the 90s stuff.

Yes and Brooks and Dunne and Cotton Eyed Joe.. in my defense I learned line dancing and country dancing as a way to pick up girls (and it worked) so….
