Music Quiz: Ruined by a Letter (1960s)
Last week’s debut quiz was pretty straightforward, and no-one got more than one question wrong. Bruce from Vinyl Connection powered through the quiz the fastest – comfortable in the 1970s (and with compatriot Olivia Newton-John included), Bruce completed the quiz in a blistering 18 seconds.
This week, we can see who’s best in the 1960s. This quiz is simple, but hilarious – iconic songs have been “ruined” by changing a letter. You need to guess the letter that has been replaced – for instance, for the clue Diana Ross – Torch Me In The Morning you need to select “u” as the answer.

It’s pretty straightforward (I think?) so it will probably be a speed race. Can you beat my time of completing the quiz in 1:30?

Graham Fyfe is fascinated by pop music, and he may be the only blogger in the world to cover Neil Diamond and Ariana Grande.
Easy-peasy. 100%. 2:59 left. I won’t even look at Tony’s as I’m sure his time is faster.

Ok, I’m an idiot and would pick the letter that replaced the letter not the letter that was missing. I did that like 4 times without thinking.

Whew, that was a fun one. Perfect score with 2:47 left on the clock. The Monkees incorrect song title had me groaning…and laughing.

Good work! Monkees one was certainly an anachronism….

perfect score with 2:02 left – I believe these were all songs from 60s? Maybe 50’s? Couple had no idea but did the old process of elimination. Like the Pat Boone one? Was that a cover? Weren’t all his hits covers?
