La la la
Sorry this is late, but I fell asleep. My body is really making full use of this holiday, especially given how I've looked back on this term and realised how I've literally been flung from one essay to another with little break.
Right, let me explain. I've got 60 sets of lyrics here, and your job is simply to recognise as many of them as you can. I'll elaborate a little first:
* No two songs are by the same artist.
* All lyrics are in English (although the song may not necessarily only be in English)
* None of the lyrics contain the song title. (For example, 'What's that coming over the hill? Is it a monster?' would, because the song is called Monster)
* All comments are screened, to ensure you remain unaffecetd by other people's guesses.
* I've tried to ensure that there is as little crossover with previous lyrics quizzes as possible.
* Difficulty varies, both in choice of song, and in selection of lyrics (ie: it's easier to know the chorus than the bridge)
* I've tried to ensure the lyrics are correct, but even lyrics sites frequently get things wrong, so bear with me if something is slightly wrong, and I apologise in advance.
With that said, here we go.
