10/10...but I'll admit many were educated guesses!?

80%. A decent amount of guessing involved.

I basically knew it or didn't. There were a few I should have known but with some songs the lyric isn't enough if I can't pull up the tune in my head.

Same. It either hits me or not. And I tend to be really bad at figuring out lyrics without the music running.

9/18, I think I knew 3 and guessed 6 correctly. Hadn't heard of most of the people/bands mentioned.

10/18, and that was with a lot of guesses. Got the Shout question, though. Great knowledge of Scottish music there. :shifty:
