	Really great idea, though it needs a little tuning. Every clip needs to be at least 12-15 seconds long with a good-size gap in between, since it usually requires repeated listens to identify a song. When I saw the list of artists in the third column, I thought that was giving away too much information, but it's definitely necessary since this is way tougher than one would think. Only complaint: where on earth did you dig up that Doors song?

	I agree with strags11. For a quiz that's this challenging, it might be better to opt for more familiar songs.

	Thanks to both of you for your input! I think I have a bit of a warped sense of what songs are and are not well-known, since I thought that Doors song was pretty popular. Mostly I put it in because I thought how different the main riff sounds from the original is really funny. I'll either redo this one with more familiar songs or make an entirely new quiz when I get the time.

	Great idea, but I found that having the 'Artist' column made this quiz much too easy. Perhaps making the third column a clue to what the band or song is, instead of giving us the information outright, would turn up the difficulty level a bit.

	I agree with The23, I don't think you should directly show the artist. =)

	Only 10 songs? You can do better than that

	I would say the Doors song is pretty well known, perhaps just not by its title. Other than Everybody Hurts, which I got primarily because Stipe's vocals slowed down sound like a normal rate of speed, Peace Frog was probably the easiest one for me personally.

	@bmo1616: I was originally going to make it longer, but decided not to after realizing how annoying this sounds after too long.

	more entertaining to hear the songs than actually guess them, i havent heard of most of these
