Great quiz! It might just be me, but I felt I could have used a little more time because of the need to scroll up and down.

Yeah, there are a lot of answers. I originally conceived it as a 20-minute "guess the song" quiz, but then I realized that would be impossible.

Loved the quiz! However, I believe "Hurts So Good" should be listed as John Mellencamp or John "Cougar" Mellencamp, either of which should be accepted. Also, please consider accepting BOC for Blue Öyster Cult. Thanks!

Actually, I misspelled Mellencamp in the alternate answers, so thank you for the heads up. "Hurts So Good" was released under the name John Cougar. He didn't use John Cougar Mellencamp until the 1983 album "Uh Huh."
