Congratulations to Eclectic Music Lover, who recorded a perfect 25/25 in last week’s quiz about Albums With At Least Four Top Ten Hits.
This week requires some language skills as well as knowledge of song titles. You need to put the antonym (the opposite) in the song title. For example, if the clue was “The Isley Brothers – Twist and ______'”, the answer could well be “whisper”, the opposite of shout.

It’s not too hard, but it’s a fun and eclectic quiz ranging from The Muppets to Dolly Parton to Katy Perry. I appreciate that “satiated” is an answer. I scored 20/20 with 2:40 remaining. Can you beat my score?
My posts don’t seem to have been showing up on the WordPress Reader recently – thanks if you’ve been checking in anyway. I’d like to apologise in advance for what’s perhaps the most off-brand post in the history of this site this coming week, beating out the 10 Sexiest Men in Music.

17/20, Tragically Hip messed me up. At least
Lots of the blogging community (and presumably the quiz maker) are from Canada, so they’ll find that one easy. I think I left it to last.
Ah. Then it was rigged. I demand a recount.
I’m sure those nice Canadians will let you.
I thought that until they had their trucker convoy. We Americans are a bad influence on them!
Pretty easy quiz with a couple of educated assumptions at the end. 20/20 with 2:04 left on the clock. Not super-fast but I was going for accuracy. I also want to hear Ozzy record a song called “Sane Train.”
My favourite was ‘Man! I Feel Like A Man!’
20/20 with 2:44 remaining. Your posts are showing up in my WordPress Reader.
You’re a relatively recent follower compared to the lifespan of the site – I wonder if that has anything to do with it?
And good work on the 20/20!
I’ve long since given up trying to figure out WordPress!
I’m on a self-hosted blog, which complicates things too.
13/20 and ran out of time
Good work anyway!
I try, Graham 🙂

TIMER
00:05 Barely but I got it in.
I just checked again…they are not for mine.
Yeah, seems like a weird problem where more recent subscribers can see it.
Your site will not let me unfollow and refollow…it gives me an error message saying “Sorry, there was a problem following https://albumreviews.blog/feed. Please try again.”
17/20 – I’ve forgotten the Black Eyed Peas song and I’ve got no idea about Nelly and Garth Brooks.
It’s getting hot in here, so take off all your clothes was pretty inescapable for a while there, but before your time.
20/20 with 3:06 left on the clock – I’d kind of like to hear We Didn’t Stop the Fire, it sounds like a more rebellious ‘let it burn’ tune.
I do get your posts on my feed though as I wasn’t tuned in for the sexiest men in music debate I’ve done a little time travelling and am curious as to what comes next
Good work! It looks like my feed is maybe fixed now.
