First off, this quiz is set up in a very specific way that I want you to understand before you begin. Most questions in this quiz will ask you to recall a few songs that are of different types. To "recall" it, you don't have to know what year it was released or on what album, I just ask that you could at least sing some of it or name the song and artist.

Secondly, have fun and learn!
