Music Quiz: Artist by Badly Drawn Song 1990s

25 Comments

1. A pathetic 12/20. It didn’t help that I never heard of Acqu or Hadaddy (?) or wouldn’t know a Tupac song from my arse.

   • Aqua made the top two in my recent 1990s worst songs list.

2. Holy crap, the ’90s isn’t “my” decade, at least when it comes to mainstream music, but somehow I managed to score 20/20 with 4:11 remaining. If this series continues into the millennium I can guarantee this will be my only perfect score.

   • Perfect score, fast time! I think there aren’t any more in this series.

3. 20/20 with 2:32 left. I took my time, watched the clock and made some lucky guesses.

   • Great job, sounds like a strong strategy.

4. I almost made the same mistake with the Michael Jackson song, and probably would have if I wasn’t warned! 18/20.

   • It would have been helpful to put the clues in the other order – it’s clearly Men in Black in hindsight but it sort of fits that one too.

5. 18/20 with 4:07 left. Guessed on Haddaway & Aqua, neither of whom I’d ever heard of, and the picture for the Nirvana song was no clue for me. The 90s are my least-favorite decade for music by a very long mile.

   • Aqua’s Barbie Girl was my pick for the 2nd worst song of the decade.

6. 10/20 with 9 seconds left. only guessed 6 right and started madly clicking until some hit

   • Passing grade!

     • 🙂 You’re kind.

7. 18/20 – I didn’t know the Mullins song and that mixed up with 2Pac.

   • I can’t imagine knowing about that Mullins song if you didn’t grow up in the 1990s or before – it was huge but I haven’t heard it for years.

8. 20/20 with 5:07 left. Another fun one. Sad to see in your comments above that there aren’t any more of these. Very creatively done.

   • Ooh, I think you have the fastest time!

9. 13 of 20 – as with others, didn’t know several of these artists – Aqua, Shawn Mullins; my favorite drawing was the Nirvana one – that cracked me up.

   • Aqua’s Barbie Girl is pretty polarising – I dislike it but at the same time it’s only a few steps away from brilliant.

10. Liking the new look of the blog btw!

    • Cool! Just means I need to do things like backups and security, and work out how to make sure my posts make the reader feed.

11. 20/20 with 3:11 left to go, my decade but need to up the coffee next time. Digging the new blog style too

    • You still got 20/20, so good job!

12. I might be late to this one, but I’m glad I didn’t miss the last of the badly drawn series. 20:20 with 4:29 left. That was a good one.

    • Perfect score!
