Saw that on FB the other day. I got 'em all right.

[DONNIEP]

I didn't know the Ramones one or the RHC one. Cause they suck. And I missed the Elton John one too.

[Kristy]

19/20 That Joan Jett one threw me.

[FORD]

17/20

I missed Dolly Parton, and Diana Ross because I'm not familiar with either album, and Pat Benatar because I couldn't remember any album she did with a goddamned owl on the cover. But then "Tropico" is about the point where she got too Top 40 for my liking, so I forgot what the album looked like.

[Mr. Vengeance]

20/20

And the Ramones DO NOT suck.

[Kristy]

17/20...Pat Benatar because I couldn't remember any album she did with a goddamned owl on the cover. But then "Tropico" is about the point where she got too Top 40 for my liking, so I forgot what the album looked like.

"Painted Desert' is off that album and quite possible the best tune she ever record. Ever been in the Nevada desert in the dead of night in summer and you'll understand why.

[Kristy]

And the Ramones DO NOT suck.

But you do, hippie.

[Seshmeister]

Now this is proper hippie

[Jérôme Frenchise]

16/20 - but without the 3-answer choice I'd have got less points.

"Thriller" was released on November 30th, 1982 BTW (I've just checked).

[Jérôme Frenchise]

And the Ramones DO NOT suck.

I'm no fan, but saying they sucked is going way too far.

We all have our own bands we can't stand hearing, and it's not always easy to say "I don't like that" instead of "that sucks".
That said, sometimes it really does and you can't honestly be diplomatic.

Anyway, remem... ber the Ramones!

[Jérôme Frenchise]

Here's a tune from an album that was released in '84 that delivered:



The Mama's Boys - "Midnight Promises"

[Nitro Express]

Now this is proper hippie

it's not true new age hippie commune without a few naked and fat Mamma Cass dykes.

[Nitro Express]

Now this is real hippie. Dirty kids playing with dogs and no parents to be found. Naked hippie chicks who probably haven't bathed in a week. A naked maniac tripping on acid behind the stage. I couldn't enjoy our local park in the early 70's because these kind of maniacs took it over. Hippies. I hated them.

[DONNIEP]

I'm no fan, but saying they sucked is going way too far.

You gotta be kidding me. I hope you don't take everything I say seriously. That was mainly a jab at Ford. Geez, do I have to explain everything?

[twonabomber]

You gotta be kidding me. I hope you don't take everything I say seriously. That was mainly a jab at Ford. Geez, do I have to explain everything?

He's not from around here, so yeah, do some 'splainin, Lucy.

[DONNIEP]

He's not from around here, so yeah, do some 'splainin, Lucy.

See??? This is EXACTLY the kind of heavy handed, demanding, over moderation that killed this place! And now you're out to get me too!

[twonabomber]

Yeah, see?

I knew some really cool hippies but they weren't into hard drugs and being filthy like most of the other ones were. They were Jesus freaks. They had long hair and beards and wore hippy clothes but they bathed on a regular basis. They were alright with drinking a little wine in moderation and they didn't care about people smoking a little pot but they were totally against mind altering substances natural or man made. I think most of them did way too many before they found Jesus.

Haha. I used to go try to bum smokes off the hippies. Not one gave me one. Bastards. Canada's "Haight Ashbury" was at Central Park in my hometown.

[Von Halen]

I got 16/20.

I guessed on at least 6.

[lesfunk]

19/20 I got Diana Ross' wrong cause she sings flat
