Subject: Doc's A-Z CryptiQuiz #8 (FINITO, LOKI WINS!)

Written By: Doc Brown on 03/30/09 at 1:21 pm

Sorry folks, but I truly feel from now on, I will only be a player for these CryptiQuizzes. I am completely out of songs to use! :(
Bookmistress4ever says she wants to try writing them, and I wish her all the luck I've had. It would be great if Hawk came back for more, but if not, I challenge someone, anyone, to take over where FD, Tanya, and I have left off. Let's keep this flag flying! ;D

I thought of that song, but the clue was 1982 and the song you listed is a 60's song.
So I have been thinking of 1982 songs that begin with the letter "T"

I just figured I first heard it about 1982 so you know why not guess...  ;D

I thought about that one too, but it came out in early 1981 and the album came out in 1980 (at last it did in Canada) , but maybe you are right!
