Rock Music Lyrics Trivia Quiz


Some fairly simple lyrics and 'who sang it' questions. If you like classic rock from mainly the 70's and 80's, this shouldn't be hard at all. I give you the lyrics, you give me the song or the artist (depending on what I am looking for in the question).

A multiple-choice quiz by spaceyfan. Estimated time: 6 mins.
