    A coworker sent me this[^] about 20 minutes ago. So far I'm at 28/40 (14 title/artist pairs). A lot of them are rather obvious, but I'm stuck on a few. EDIT: I'm up to 17 (34/40) now.

    26/40 so far The "yellow and the green tree" was a PITA - I went through half a dozen cover artists before I got the original! (Make that 28 - don't you feel a fool when the penny drops on some of them?) Nope: I surrender at 32/40!

      Got bored after ten seconds and decided to listen to actual music.

      How does working on those "brainteasers" prevent you from listening to actual music at the same time? :doh:

        38/40 (with a little help on some of the artists). The only one I didn't get was obvious once I saw the answer! :doh:

            Why isn't No 6 Kacey Musgraves then? I don't know what the actual answer is yet but it's gotta be less logical! Edit: no 6 not 8, obviously!

              I'm up to 36/40 now, and will admit that I had to Google the artist for that one.

                Sounds like you haven't got the right title. :) Hint: The background colour matters. (Select the black blob to read the hint.)

                  Ah , that one! I still say my answer's more logical though!

                    Because then all my answers on this one would be a Meatloaf song.

                        Now that's just cheating! :laugh: If you're going to cheat, there's a "see all the answers" link when you first load the page. Far easier than your option! :rolleyes:
