Pretty fun quiz.  But, I got a Final Score: 112.45

They deducted 30% because I was a "yuppie?"  I was born in 1966.  I'm too young to be a yuppie!  When I went back and entered me as part of the "Just Say No" generation, I scored 158.5!  But I will take my lumps and settle with my chastisement and move on!   ;D

Thanks for the quiz rubixgirl!

I got 104 1/2 when I counted up all my points including the bonus.  But it deducted 30 points for being a "yuppie."  I was born in 1969.  This person obviously doesn't know what a yuppie is, other than someone who does not spend their time making up dumb quizzes on the internet.  

Nonetheless, I can't believe I missed Madness, Our House (Our house in the middle of the street...), and Irene Cara's "Flashdance" (In a world made of steel, made of stone...).  I missed a lot of 'em because when I don't like a song I make no effort to remember lyrics.  Now, with "Flashdance" it's different because it was the biggest song of the summer of '83, oh no wait, that was The Police, "Every Breath You Take."  Anyway, "Flashdance" was one of the biggest, and it was pounded into your head every five minutes!!!

I got a 45. It said, "You grew up in this." About right; I was a kid in the 80s.

I got 111.7 which is pretty good considering I don't exactly recall much of the 80s!! Damn, I wish I was born in '74 instead of '84 :(

Congrats I think you're the highest score so far. It definitely isn't as easy as I thought it would be.  :D

A lot of them were pretty easy for me; some of them I had to think about them for a few minutes (go over the words in my head for a while), and then there were some I just could'nt figure out and then I'd see the answers to them and it would be like "Duh"

I scored 115.5 - no penalties for me  ;D

Some I missed just because of poor spelling, or getting two songs confused.

Anyway, fun little survey.  Thanks!

My score was a 91 until I got 30% taken away for being a yuppie.  Even with my bonus points I ended up with 68.7  :P

115. The penalties for misspellings are pretty lame, IMO, but it was fun nevertheless.

I took this before. I will say, I suck at remembering lyrics. They are always on the tip of my tounge.  :-/

Got a 52.5...thought I would've scored way better than that!  Stupid misspellings!

Thanks for the heads up Safety Dance. Okay, I will just give this thread a bump. Alright, I scored a lousy 35. Tis a pity.
I always had a problem remembering lyrics. This score only prooves my lack of long term memory. :-[
