What was that? I know I had at least 20 right, especially #6 can be no mistake, yet the score says I have 0? Uh WTF? I'm telling my boss your game is rigged and I want extra money for the time played. :mad:

that's tricky. i'm sure they play some of the songs longer than the others... i haven't filled in the blanks yet. sure i'll do most poorly.

maybe we should all post the ones we got right, then we could compare notes and eventually, get the correct titles for all 50!

Okay I got 22. I really need 7, 9 and 20. They are driving me bananas.

Heres my list
4. elton john - tiny dancer
5. public enemy - fight the power
6. beastie boys - intergalactic
8. beatles - hey jude
11. oasis - little by little
14. talking heads - psycho killer
15. van halen - jump
18. GODDAMN IT I keep typing "simple minds - don't you forget about me" because i am pretty sure thats what it is but it wont take it
19. rage against the machine - killing in the name
22. foo fighters - my hero
23. clash - rock the casbah
25. white stripes - seven nation army
27. eagle eye cherry - save tonight
28. de la soul - me myself and i
30. jimmy eat world - the middle
31. joy division - love will tear us apart
32. pixies - where is my mind

36. bloodhound gang - the bad touch
41. smashing pumpkins - 1979

EDIT: Figured out 20, queen - i want to break free. 7 is pearl jam - even flow, but i had to look through my pearl jam songs in itunes to find it. 42 is also girl from mars by ash. That makes 25. Number 10 is by motley crue i think. But I have no idea what song it is.
