Subject: 80s Quiz Medley II <Limit Removed + Hints Added>

Written By: whistledog on 02/04/07 at 1:10 am

Here is another 80s Quiz Medley.  This time, each of the 5 medleys contains 10 songs.  Each song within each medley is worth 1 point for a total of 50 points.  Remember to keep track of which song is in what order when you answer (ie: Medley 1, song 3; Medley 2, Song 2)

The One Hit Wonders are based on pop charts, and are defined by country, so many of them are or might not be one hit wonders in other countries

NOTE:  This quiz may not work with Firefox.  It works flawless in Internet Explorer

LIMIT = 0

I'd no idea that Sal (as a solo artist) had another hit.  What was it?  I need to download it.  lol

His other 'hit' was the follow-up to 'San Damiano', entitled 'Music And You'...

I'm not sure exactly how easy/difficult it will be to find...it scaled the giddy heights of #52 here during the spring of 1985...
