Last week’s 1990s quiz was headed for a tie between J. and Tony, before Aaron came in late with a winning time.
This week, let’s jump forward to the 2010s – complete the song titles with 5-letter words.

I scored a perfect 25/25, but I did have to do some educated guessing with the last few and was probably quite lucky.
Do you know your Psy from your Miguel? What did you score?

Heh! Worst score ever. I barely know who these people are and I couldn’t possibly care less. So I just took it for the hell of it. 9/25 of which there were two for which I recognized the titles, the rest I flipped a coin.
Some other scores have been pretty close to yours….
I’m aware of about half these artists but don’t know many of their popular songs. I was able to get 10/25 with only a couple of wrong guesses before time ran out, which is significantly better than I expected. At least I beat Jim by 1. Hahaha.
There’s a big spread in scores this week.
16/25. I went through once and knew a few, then guessed at the rest as the clock ran down. I hadn’t even heard of some of the artists, let alone the song titles! I consider it lucky I guessed this many.
I hadn’t realized I’d pulled off a win last week, though. Cool beans!
Yup, J and Tony had exactly the same time until you decided it.
And here I was just thinking I was lucky to survive it!
22/25 here with a LOT of guesswork
Good guessing! If you can get a few, it really helps with the guessing.
Week #2 of sucking!! 10/25 as time ran out. Good news I hadn’t actually missed any at that point.
Sounds like time management is your issue!
That is only one of many issues I have!!
I don’t think 2010s pop is your strongest genre?
Nope.
I got only 10/25! I’m shocked, shocked I say, as I should have known more of them. Also, the test time is too brief.
Thanks for playing! I think I knew about 15 or so, and was able to guess the rest from there.
Pass…7/25
Hopefully next week is more up your alley.
I’m going to get my son to do that one…I want to see how he will score.
It’s pretty heavy on pop so it might not be his thing still.
Yea he is more indie when it comes to newer music but I am going to get him to try
He did ok….16/25…the music he listens to is like Foster The People and Bon Iver…those are the ones I can think of.
Good work!
I gave up after 20 seconds as none looked familiar 🙁 I’m out of the loop for the last decade (at least!)
I recognise that most quiz participants are stronger on old stuff, but I like to mix it up sometimes.
I’m always happy to see a new challenge even if I’m not up to it 🙂
Well, I considered 15/25 a win considering most of those were guesses.
Good guesswork!
25/25 w/ 49 seconds left – not surprising for me as I am 21.
Great work! I think you might be the winner this week…
Oooft. 10/25. Think I got 3 before I resorted to guesswork.
I think that’s a mid-table score this week!
8 of 25 scraping the bottom – I knew like 6, guessed a few more (with a number of misses) and then ran out of time.
I think people would prefer a quiz from a different decade next week!
