Music Quiz: Nonsense
Congratulations to everyone who scored full marks in last week’s quiz, but especially to Tony who had the fastest time.
This week we’re looking at songs with nonsense titles.

I only knew about half, but using the process of elimination based on date of release I lucked my way through to 20/20 with 3:05 remaining.
Can you equal my score and beat my time?
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.
I’ll need a little TLC to console me on my 19/20 score this week. I was flying through it and thought I would nail it in record time, but couldn’t quite close the deal. Still pretty enjoyable.

19/20 here. Since when is bootylicuous a nonsense word? I’m sure I just read it the Brothers Karamazov, perfectly legitimate word

Fyodor Pavlovitch’s first wife, Adelaïda Ivanovna, belonged to a fairly rich and distinguished noble family, also landowners in our district, the Miüsovs. How it came to pass that an heiress, who was also bootylicious….

20 – 14 were effortless, 3 I was able to determine based on dates, the final 3 were guesses & thankfully, the right ones!

I had to make a lot of informed guesses based on date for mine.

17/20 – knew about half of them, then it was just matching the year with the artist.

I love the album, it’s in her top 3 albums for me with ‘Red’ and ‘1989’.

I’ve only listened a little so far – seems good writing, but a little samey.

15/20. The ones I got wrong I don’t know and never will. Sound like a pantload of crap anyway.

Took your strategy of deduction based on what was remaining and date and it took me to 17-20. I think all three were 90 R&b/hip hop. not my bag. fun quiz though!
