I had sent my score to the list but I see now that it never made it.
I don't remember my exact score; it was 76 point something.
Looking at the ones I missed, I definitely had some DOH! moments...

I don't remember my score ;-(  I think it was 70, cause he took 30 off and

I got this from Jon's LJ.  I don't recall my exact score, but I do know I 
got The 80's are my life, which sounds about right.  :)

As did I.  And I can't remember my score either. :)  I know it was at least 
130+.

The last question was my favorite.

I used to remove them.  My shoulders were blocky enough already, added 
padding right there was overkill.  (I've filled out to where the shoulders 
aren't so blocky now.)  :)

I guess I dived yours. I got 3.85. To my excuse I can say that I'm 
no good at lyrics without hearing the tune. Actually I'm no good at 
lyrics. But I probably would have gotten most of those if they had 
quizzed me by inserting beeps into the original music instead of just 
one liners.

I got 133, but some of the songs meant nothing to me even after I read 
the answer and looked up the lyrics, so I'm guessing there were some USA 
only hits in there... But I did get serious bonus points for the Eagles 
(well, for having read the Straight Dope about Colitas) and for knowing 
Toto's Africa.
I like the bit at the bottom where it says I did scarily well on the 
80's music test

I didn't like the music of the eighties much. Not until Guns n'Roses.

42.5 . . . not too good.  But then I didn't like a lot of the 80's music and
I don't watch music videos.

I could do quite well if their was come Jethro Tull in there (not really
from the 80's of course)
