	Honestly, I think you have too many questions; if I have to scroll up and down- even after hitting F11- to get between the questions and answers, I'm probably not going to take that quiz.

	I assume the answer for Stronger was supposed to be Kanye West, but Britney Spears had a hit with the same name.

	@michaelm - Okay, duly noted and changed. @Kicking222... I'm not so sure. Spacing is an issue, but the 1980-84 and 1985-89 quizzes had 125 each. I'm not sure how much I could cut out and get away with. Maybe removing the least significant 20 answers.

	Cut out 10 answers, going to wait for more plays to decide who stays and who goes.

	Say it ain't so is a single released in 95 from an album released in 94 ! You can pick Hash Pipe or Island in the Sun instead.

	the_hmh_project:	Apr 14th, 2012 at 16:35 GMT		2 points
	Fixed!

	theworryrock:	Apr 14th, 2012 at 16:38 GMT		2 points
	I was also gonna mention the Weezer thing. Missy Elliott's last name has two Ts, too.

	sbme:	Apr 14th, 2012 at 17:43 GMT		4 points
	Rihanna had a song called "Rehab" in 2008

	rockgolf:	Apr 14th, 2012 at 19:23 GMT		3 points
	Both Snoop Dogg & Xtina had top ten hits with the title Beautiful, so I'd swap that one out. And you may have noticed that alphabetical order causes the lower-case (but correct) t.A.T.u. to appear at the end of the list. After writing these style quizzes for the 60's 70's & 80's, it's neat to be able to see how I would fare at this game if someone else wrote it. Great variety and I really enjoyed it. (Any chance you can link to my 85-89 version?)

	the_hmh_project:	Apr 14th, 2012 at 19:36 GMT		2 points
	@theworryrock - Thanks. I knew there would be a spelling error in there somewhere... Gonna fix it. @sbme - Thanks, I didn't know that. Her other notable song is the top result on YouTube, so I'll change it to that. @rockgolf - Thanks. I don't think I'll change t.A.T.u., for the sake of correctness; but I will swap out 'Beautiful for a different Aguilera song. Will link in your quiz. Can I do the 90s edition as well?

	ThatStarGirl:	Apr 14th, 2012 at 21:21 GMT		5 points
	Britney Spears also had a hit with a song entitled 'Crazy', and Christina Aguilera had a song called 'Hurt', plus I think there may have been one other that I've forgotten. Also, being very fussy, Lady Marmalade is from the soundtrack of Moulin Rouge and features all 4 artists equally - not primarily Christina. So I would choose a different song for her, but that's just me. I did like this quiz, despite it being US-Centric (some songs/bands I've never heard of in the UK), but very enjoyable :)

	rockgolf:	Apr 14th, 2012 at 21:45 GMT		2 points
	@HMH: Sure, go for the 90's but give it a couple of days. I plan to make this an Editor's pick on Monday.

	@ThatStarGirl - Grr... stupid pop princesses ruining my quizzes. Okay, will have to change Johnny Cash's to 'The Man Comes Around', Christina Aguilera's to 'Candyman', and I will leave 'Crazy' as it is, because the Britney Spears single you're thinking of was called '(You Drive Me) Crazy' - and, not to sound like a music Nazi, if you recognise one of Britney Spears' album tracks over a Gnarls Barkley song... you deserve to get that question wrong. @rockgolf, 90s is in the wings, will be released Monday or Tuesday!

	ParanoidThyroid:	Apr 16th, 2012 at 13:21 GMT		4 points
	I don't know if it's just me, but I got really annoyed with all of the "the" bands being alphabetically ordered as "t". For example "the Killers" should be under K.

	the_hmh_project:	Apr 16th, 2012 at 13:35 GMT		3 points
	@ParanoidThyroid - aside from having to coolest name on Sporcle, you are absolutely right. All such bands will now be listed as (e.g.) Killers, The.

	Juvo415:	Apr 16th, 2012 at 14:18 GMT		2 points
	Generally speaking, the number of answers I got on this as I played was inverse to how I felt about myself...

	Alex951998:	Apr 16th, 2012 at 21:20 GMT		2 points
	The way I've handled the "The" conundrum is simply stating in the notes that "The" is omitted from band names. That could save you a bit of trouble, in the future when you make other music quizzes.

	paddy26:	Apr 16th, 2012 at 23:38 GMT		3 points
	The Fountain's of Wayne song is spelled "Stacy's Mom". Outstanding quizzicle.

	alsanali:	Apr 17th, 2012 at 00:47 GMT		3 points
	Thanks for reminding me of all the terrible music I used to listen to as a teenager.

	josh4colts:	Apr 17th, 2012 at 02:47 GMT		2 points
	Papa Roach also had a single called "Forever".

	Frappuccino:	Apr 17th, 2012 at 04:28 GMT		-2 points
	I'm ashamed I knew Nickelback.

	iamausername:	Apr 17th, 2012 at 12:08 GMT		2 points
	Sean Paul and Kylie have both had songs called "Breathe".

	the_hmh_project:	Apr 17th, 2012 at 14:36 GMT		3 points
	@everyone. Everything now fixed. Please play the 90s edition of Clickable Classics as well.

	someone_else:	Apr 17th, 2012 at 20:23 GMT		2 points
	Mariah Carey had a "Hero" as well.

	gvilleguy1124:	Apr 17th, 2012 at 23:37 GMT		2 points
	you shouldn't have songs on here that two or more of the artists on the list sang. its confusing.

	the_hmh_project:	Apr 18th, 2012 at 12:40 GMT		2 points
	@everyone - Hopefully fixed the last of the same name confusions by replacing Enrique Iglesias, and also replaced every artist whose score was under 20% with three far more familiar artists.

	tobinw:	Apr 18th, 2012 at 13:58 GMT		3 points
	Interesting mix of some really good music that will turn out to be classics, and also some of the most dreadful artists ever signed to record contracts. Good quiz.

	rockgolf:	Apr 18th, 2012 at 18:58 GMT		3 points
	If you don't list "Bad Day", there's no point trying to find another Daniel Powter song. That was his only charted track anywhere, including his home country of Canada.

	the_hmh_project:	Apr 19th, 2012 at 08:50 GMT		4 points
	I'd have to say 'Bad Day' was the weirdest One-Hit-Wonder I've ever heard... I can't work out why it got so popular, but then resulted in no follow-up. It's not really the kind of song which has no follow-up, most adult alternative artists at least try to squeeze in a second hit. According to Wikipedia, he released a few other singles all over Europe, had another 'hit' in the UK with 'Free Loop' which (I kid you not) was deemed ineligible to chart as it was released with 'Bad Day' as a B-side.

	He then, being the highest charting Billboard artist of the year (and therefore about as big as Nickelback or Adele were)... went on tour with Z-list artists Alphabeat and Lil Chris, who barely even got famous in the UK. Since then, he played piano on an upcoming Marcy Playground track, and will release a fourth album. Mr Powter, a word of advice. Fire your manager.

	Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now" was released in 2010 winning the grammy in 2011... your quiz says 2000-2009.. just letting you know!

	EpicWinFTW:	Apr 19th, 2012 at 22:21 GMT		0 points
	Miley Cyrus had a hit named "I Miss You".

	davidbrown90:	Apr 20th, 2012 at 07:02 GMT		0 points
	So did Avril Lavigne, I think (re: "I Miss You")

	the_hmh_project:	Apr 20th, 2012 at 10:30 GMT		2 points
	Lady Antebellum gone, Blink-182 song changed.

	wallyballz:	Apr 20th, 2012 at 14:01 GMT		2 points
	Staind also had a song called Home.....

	the_hmh_project:	Apr 20th, 2012 at 20:16 GMT		2 points
	Daughtry song changed. This quiz is now the most played on User Created Music this past week! Big thanks to everyone who played, shared, favourited, rated commented and criticised! I really don't want to sound like I'm plugging anything, but the '90s edition of Clickable Classics is up. I'll link that into this quiz and link rockgolf's '85-9 quiz in the '90s edition.

	A few personal shout-outs to @ThatStarGirl, who made a more UK-friendly version of this quiz, please check hers out - makes me proud to be British. Also, as inspired by @tobinw, comment what you think the future classics are on this list. For me personally, "Maps", "Feel Good Inc." and "Seven Nation Army".

	STLIllinifan:	Apr 22nd, 2012 at 08:55 GMT		-1 points
	Either add more time or take away some questions. It's simply impossible to get through all of the questions in the time allotted. Otherwise, great quiz.

	the_hmh_project:	Apr 22nd, 2012 at 16:52 GMT		1 point
	It's 140 questions in 15 minutes at the moment, @rockgolf's are 150 in 20 minutes. Therefore... I will increase the time. But unlike @rockgolf, I'm evil. Therefore, the time is 17 minutes. Everybody else: was it enough time for you?
