You Scored 40% Correct

You know some 80s stuff
Like that Paula Abdul was a star back then
But you're not sure who Suzie Q was
And you don't know what Samantha Fox was really famous for!




And I'd just like to add that number 17 wasn't even in the 80s that was the 90s. rolleyes

You Scored 65% Correct



You are a solid child of the 80s
You'd never confuse Tiffany from Debbie
And while you may not know Prince's first #1 hit
You know every word to Little Red Corvette


...actually, i do know what prince's first #1 hit was.

I should have done better.

There were no "Flash Gordon" soundtrack questions so I consider the test null and void.
