It's time for a new quiz! Slightly different format this time, no multiple choice or true/false. This time, you'll hear a sound clip, and you have to tell the song title and the artist for each. One point will be granted for each item you get correct (for example, if you know the song title but not the artist, you get one point). There are 10 clips for a total of 20 points.

As is the case with most of my quizzes, I have no idea how difficult this is going to be. All the songs were chosen from my own iTunes playlist. I picked 5 songs each from the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, and 2000's. From those 25, I randomly picked 10 to use for the quiz (I'll give you a little bit of a hint by saying that all 5 songs from the 60's were chosen, while no songs from the current decade made it in - chosen randomly!).

When you finish the quiz, enter your name at the bottom and click "Submit." It sends me an email with your name and answers. I figured that would be better than having people post answers in the comments, both for ease of use and for preventing cheating.

I'll post the answers sometime Tuesday. I want to give people enough time to get to a computer with speakers, but not enough time where you can ask all your friends "what song is that?" The top point scorers will win my respect and admiration, as well as the title of "omarphillips.net name that tune champion of August 2006."

A relatively recent version of the Flash browser plugin is required. Also, a warning to dialup users: after you click the link to take the quiz, you should probably go make yourself some popcorn, make a pit stop in the bathroom, and maybe call your mom. By the time you're done with those things, the page should have completely loaded.
