Music Quiz: 3 Songs, 1 Common Name

I found this week’s quiz confusing at first. You need to link three songs to one first name – a name shared by people who sang the three songs. So the answer for ‘Suspicious Minds’ and ‘Alison’ would be Elvia.

I scored 19/20 – can you get the whole set?

Congratulations to Eclectic Music Lover, who was the fastest in last week’s Three Dog Night quiz.

  1. It took a second or two to get the feel of this quiz, and then it was an easy 20/20 with 3:30 left on the clock. I’m sure that won’t be the fastest time but I’m proud of my performance.

  2. I’m terrible at these, and as usual completely misunderstood the assignment. I thought it was asking for three songs with the same name but by different artists!
    I once had a playlist with three songs titled “Demons” in a row. By Imagine Dragons, Guster, and The National. Guess I won’t quit my day job.
