	Kate, I did horribly on this (4/24), but holy crap, what a remarkable list of song titles. I have no idea how you found even a third of what you did. How did you get started on this and how in the heck did you find something for every hour of the day? What was the hardest to find? If for no other reason than sheer tenacity, you've earned 5 Sporcles and an Editor's Choice. Bravo!

	One other note: Thank you for using the proper terms Noon & Midnight instead of the completely confusing 12 AM and 12 PM. Technically both 12 AM & 12 PM refer to midnight, neither refer to noon, since they translate to 12 hours before noon (ante meridian) and 12 hours after noon (post meridian). You'd be amazed how many people don't get that.

	Excellent quiz, though I had to quit after I failed to name the songs by They Might Be Giants and Tom Waits back to back, who are two of my favorite artists.

	There's also: 40 Past Midnight (Ocean Colour Scene); 3am Eternal (The KLF); Just Who Is The 5 O'Clock Hero? (The Jam); 5:15 (The Who); 10:15 Saturday Night (The Cure). I remembered that The Jam had "In The Midnight Hour" but not "Tonight at Noon"! Very good quiz.

	Oh thanks rockgolf! Believe it or not, there are actually websites (yes, plural) dedicated to listing songs in categories like times of day (fla's suggestions were all options). Between my own knowledge and 2 sites, I managed to come up with almost a full day. I actually put this quiz aside for a while and completed another one, so I'm not sure I remember but I think it was 6PM that was the last one I found, and therefore I'm assuming the most obscure. There are many more songs titled with early morning hours than late in the day. The inspiration came from the 4PM song - I had a completely different quiz in mind (that I still might do eventually) but it became this instead.

	EXCELLENT quiz!

	For some reason 3 to 4 in the morning is popular for song titles. There 3AM by matchboxtwenty (apparently lower case one word is the bands preference), 4AM by Our Lady Peace and "25 or 6 to 4" by Chicago.

	VAredsox:	Jun 23rd, 2010 at 11:42 GMT	1 point
	25 or 6 to 4 should definitely be on here. That is an amazing song.

	katesutton:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 02:02 GMT	1 point
	@VAredsox I've got nothing against Chicago, but the 3AM slot was already filled by a song I personally like better. If the song had been called 25 or 6 to 8, it would have definitely been included and made things easier on me.

	I think the singer should be visible. Otherwise this is just guessing. I tried "After Midnight", "At the Midnight Hour", "Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M.", "11 O'Clock Tick Tock" and then hit the Give Up button. I think you've got to narrow the focus a little bit.

	rush's 2112 should've been on here. military time?

	mennoknight:	Jun 27th, 2010 at 14:53 GMT	1 point
	3AM Eternal's another one for 3.

	katesutton:	Jun 28th, 2010 at 00:35 GMT	2 points
	I thought it went without saying, but I guess I need to specify that you need to listen to the clip to take the quiz.

	my only problem with this quiz is 9 AM really refers to 4:51 rather than 9, but upon doing research, i havent been able to find any 9 o'clock songs other than Panic! At the Disco's 9 in the afternoon, which isn't useable either for the morning. Also, 9 o'clock by Parvati Khan from some bollywood movie, and a singaporean metal band NAMED 9 o'clock. http://digital.othermusic.com/search/full.php?UID=488295, elk city, but I haven't heard of them before now. Other than that, great quiz, and just to contribute my favourite time song, sometime around midnight - the airborne toxic event
