Board 8 > Can you name the 80's bands/artists that these three 5-second clips are from?

(+) Yeah! (+)

http://www.sporcle.com/games/grapefruitking/80s-3x5

Made another fun quiz. You get three 5-second clips from an 80's band and you must guess which band it's from. Simple but fun
Post your scores and comments in this topic!!


And try the 90's version I did, if you hadn't already:

Sometimes I leave B8 for several months and everything's different.

Thankfully GrapefruitKing's sporcle obsession ensured this didn't happen this time.

Got 26 out of 36.

The hair and metal bands messed me up pretty good. Also neither of the two wham songs I know were used for them so I missed it.

--
SuperNiceDog had a super nice bracket too.

28. Likewise, mainly got messed up by the metal stuff. Fun quiz!

--
James - Board 8's Resident Warm And Safe, Slipper-Wearing User
& The Cream of Porcupine Tree Fanboyism

I got the metal stuff, oddly enough it was a few of the super popular ones I had no clue on (U2, etc)

25 of 36, would've been more, but I had a massive brainfart on the names for:

:30-:45
:45-1:00
2:30-2:45
4:45-5:00
5:00-5:15
8:00-8:15

1:15-1:30
4:30-4:45
7:15-7:30
7:30-7:45

36. Easiest quiz ever, but of course this is just a matter of "Do you listen to good music?"

Prince
Motley Crue

Got 29 of them. I figure it's far enough down that only those who have finished would read this, so I'm gonna go ahead and spoil away.

I'm glad you took George Michaels for Wham! Hahaha, I heard the first two songs and went ahead and skipped it because I had no clue, and then it started playing Careless Whisper, and I was like "WAIT I KNOW THAT!"

There were a few like that for me. I only got Prince from When Doves Cry, Culture Club from Do You Really Want to Hurt Me (which was awful, because I love Karma Chameleon and somehow didn't recognize it), and Cyndi Lauper from Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.

What I'd like to know is, how the **** did I not get Iron Maiden or Queen. You somehow managed to pull three songs of both of theirs I've never heard. Granted, I don't listen to Iron Maiden much at all, but you could pull any 5 seconds from Run to the Hills, 2 Minutes to Midnight, or Number of the Beast, and I'd nail it in one second flat. I mean, I still should've gotten it from the vocals, which weirds me out further, but oh well. And Queen...... I have no idea what brain lapse I had there.

I didn't regret missing of the other ones nearly as much, though. I had pieced together that one of the songs was It's Tricky, but I didn't know who that was, so that was a lost cause. I don't listen to the Pixies, the Cure, or the Smiths at all, so no loss there, either. My one hope at getting Duran Duran was if you played Hungry Like the Wolf, and that didn't happen.

Speaking of guessing on that one, I probably guessed Loverboy initially for 5 or 6 of these. >___>

20/36

much less than the 90's where I got all but one (which was U2 then, got U2 now because 80s U2>90s). I blame it on all the generic 80s rock in there. Some good stuff in here too though (Smiths, Pixies, Clash).
