	:( i would've done better on the chimp song.

	Great quiz! But suddenly I want to play the lottery.

	StephenM:	Sep 1st, 2009 at 21:08 GMT	4 points
	Hah! Brilliant idea! :)

	Tree FORT? sigh. Should have known the BL's would have hire aspirations than a mere tree house.

	HudsonHawk:	Sep 1st, 2009 at 21:18 GMT	8 points
	And maybe some pre-wrapped bacon. ;)

	Woulda got a perfect score except Merrick is only spelled with one r in this quiz. Might want to check that out.

	KarenNfld:	Sep 1st, 2009 at 21:25 GMT	-1 points
	Like Chris said, John Merrick's name is spelled incorrectly. Please fix it.

	cmkeller:	Sep 1st, 2009 at 21:25 GMT	4 points
	Great. Now the chorus of the song is stuck in my head, AND I CAN'T REMEMBER A SINGLE SPECIFIC ITEM!!! Thanks a lot!

	Diane:	Sep 1st, 2009 at 21:38 GMT	0 points
	I was going nuts, because I knew SOMETHING like "tree house" was on there. Got hung up on it.

	voljtw:	Sep 1st, 2009 at 21:46 GMT	4 points
	I just mumbled/hummed the whole song in my head and still only got 2...I know HOW they sing it, I just dont know what they're saying. Oh and I was hoping "I'd be rich" would be on there at least as a bonus.

	I love BNL. We don't really appreciate them enough in the U.S.A.

	vogz:	Sep 1st, 2009 at 21:47 GMT	6 points
	i'm thinking maybe an extra minute? after all...the song itself is longer than the time you have to complete this quiz for those of us trying to sing it in our head

	This song is practically the unofficial 2nd national anthem of Canada. When the CBC held a vote for the bast Canadian songs of all time, this song was #2 behind Four Strong Winds. Seriously. http://trinimansblog.blogspot.com/2005/03/cbc-radios-top-50-canadian-songs-of.html

	Woulda done much better if I didn't keep having the wrong lyrics in my head. For anybody who lives in the maritimes, you may know of a song called If I Caught a Million Lobsters as a parody. Every time I'd sing a line from the BNL version, I'd switch the lyrics to the parody and get the wrong answers.

	Damn it I was almost there, I was typing Kraft dinner when time ran out, great song

	tamazin:	Sep 1st, 2009 at 22:23 GMT	3 points
	hooray canadian content

	knifeyspooney:	Sep 1st, 2009 at 22:53 GMT	0 points
	@SilverCup I had a similar problem. I'm more familiar with the Brobdingnagian Bards' version, "If I Had A Million Ducats".

	toadturtle3:	Sep 2nd, 2009 at 00:11 GMT	0 points
	amazing quiz idea. It is so hard to think of these without the music and them singing along. Over and over, I thought, If I had a million dollars... thinking it would just pop in my head and I blanked on about half of them.

	LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. As a huge BNL fan (at least, I was back in the day... "Barenaked Ladies Are Me" is an incredibly terrible album), this is one of my favorite quizzes in recent memory. (With that said, it took me until the last 13 seconds to get 'em all- I had to mute the TV so I could sing to myself, and even still, the second verse stumped me for a few moments.) Oh, BNL, you'll always be in my heart.

	This is going to be stuck in my head all night now :)

	nearlyextinct:	Sep 2nd, 2009 at 01:14 GMT	3 points
	I love BNL, but this just reminds me of how Steve left.

	Cerekk:	Sep 2nd, 2009 at 02:58 GMT	5 points
	If I had a million dollars, I'd be rich.

	NCBerge:	Sep 2nd, 2009 at 04:01 GMT	4 points
	It should accept "A Nice Reliant Automobile" if it takes things like "sausages".

	newenglander:	Sep 2nd, 2009 at 04:55 GMT	2 points
	that all probably cost more than a million. a house and a picasso would take out a huge chunk

	livfred:	Sep 2nd, 2009 at 04:57 GMT	3 points
	The parenthetical comment about John Merrick should actually read: (all them crazy elephant bones).

	tobinw:	Sep 2nd, 2009 at 06:11 GMT	1 point
	This quiz made my day.

	TheTallOne:	Sep 2nd, 2009 at 07:50 GMT	1 point
	This is a great quiz, I was listening to this song the other day and thought "This would be perfect for Sporcle." What a great surprise.

	Gumpster:	Sep 2nd, 2009 at 10:44 GMT	0 points
	i kept thinking limousine, but then rejecting it because there was no way they would except that. i guess they showed me huh?

	Patteroast:	Sep 2nd, 2009 at 12:11 GMT	2 points
	Wow, nice! Barenaked Ladies is my favorite band. :)

	SundropKid:	Sep 2nd, 2009 at 21:00 GMT	1 point
	great idea for a quiz, love it!

	AtlasSighed:	Sep 2nd, 2009 at 21:20 GMT	1 point
	BnL ftw!

	L102:	Sep 3rd, 2009 at 01:39 GMT	-2 points
	Very hard to guess when you don't know the lyrics. It's not common sense things. :P

	segacs:	Sep 3rd, 2009 at 05:36 GMT	2 points
	Yay! Much love for this quiz, and this song.

	suppasonic:	Sep 4th, 2009 at 05:31 GMT	0 points
	Was I the only one who thought 'two chicks at one time' was going to be an answer before clicking on the quiz?

	chikka2:	Sep 4th, 2009 at 07:32 GMT	0 points
	I heard this song about an hour before doing the quiz and still missed four. I'd have sworn it was a tree "house"...love BNL

	sammynic:	Sep 30th, 2009 at 11:48 GMT	0 points
	This made me sooooo happy. :]]

	shawnoc:	Oct 17th, 2009 at 21:44 GMT	1 point
	I had to google to find out why it wasn't accepting "John Davidson's Remains" as an answer. Apparently the live version I have on my iPod changed that lyric from the original.

	blueshoelaces:	Nov 7th, 2009 at 23:22 GMT	1 point
	I agree with NCBerge about the "reliant automobile" and think it should also accept "all them crazy elephant bones" because I don't know who John Merrick is and spent the last forty-five seconds typing "maron... marin... merrin... merril... merryl... merit... mera....."
