First time...been there! ;) It's hard to figure out what questions you can and cannot ask...



Maybe it's my age, but I only recognize one:

#23: Teenage Dirtbag - Wheatus



Hope your quiz will get finished. :)

I was nervous!  Karma to you for being nice enough to get things started - and you got it right.  Maybe my choices are too, er, British?

Could be - but then there's quite a lot of UK residents on this board. ;) On the other hand: most people that take quizzes on this board prefer 1980s (and earlier) songs - at least, that's my experience. But don't let that discourage you! We'll see how things develop.

If this does OK I plan to do some more with 80s and 90s stuff.  Maybe even 70s - we'll see  :)

#25 - "Wherever You Will Go" by The Calling

Karma right back to you - you like Morrissey?  I would never have guessed... and don't feel bad about getting the Bon Jovi one - it's one of their best songs IMHO  :)
