1. This was a really easy one for me. 25/25 with 3:24 left on the clock.

   • Great work – I had a few problems with the afros.

2. 25/25 with 4:19 left. I also love that Michael Murphy song, and that live version is great.

   • Fast time – I’m glad someone else likes ‘Wildfire’.

3. 25/25 with 4:03 left. The afros threw me a bit, too

   • But you figured it out, so good work!

4. 25/25 with 2:53 left. Yes!

   • 100% – great work.

     • Heck yes! Thanks, Graham.

5. I’m of 2 minds on Wildfire. One part of me loves it, and the other part gags. lmao

   • Always a fine line between a great pop song and a cheesefest.

     • Well said!

6. 23/25 – not too shabby, I guess, especially given how much I tend to suck at these games! 😂

   I recall hearing “Wildfire” on the radio back in Germany many moons ago. I think you could do a lot worse!

   • I don’t know if you’re too bad at these – you’ve generally been scoring pretty well.

     • You’re very kind, Graham! 🙂

7. 20/25. I’ll take it. Thanks as always.

   • And thanks for playing!

8. 21/25… And one of those was because I rushing and clicked on Rod Stewart by mistake 😄

   • Yeah, Rod Stewart is usually a gimme, only rock star who looks like a cockatoo.

9. 17/25. I could blame being rusty but really, I was still just a little one in the 70s.

   • Your blog generally focuses on the 1980s and later, right? Which is fine, cos lots of blogs focus on the 1960s and 1970s.

10. Score

    03:58 This one was no trouble…although I almost got the BS song mixed up with the Billy Joel song title.

    Wildfire…that brings back a lot of memories. Not many songs about horses…Chestnut Mare by the Byrds I think of as well.

    • Great work!

      Wikipedia has a list – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Songs_about_horses

      Horse With No Name is a big horse song too!

      • Oh yes…I forget about that one…but sholdn’t!
