I did it on a computer and got 126, then after time ran out a bunch of songs flooded into my mind. I clicked away quickly again and only saw one song I didn’t get, so I’m gonna try one more time, but 126 is probably the fair score.

If I spoke prose you'd all find out, I don't know what I talk about.

154. Not too bad, but I hate myself for missing Getting Better , Fixing A Hole , You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away , Till There Was You … and Think For Yourself , one of my all-time favorites from George. 

The majority of the songs I missed, though, were from the first three albums, which I’m not as well-acquainted with as the touch of the velvet hand like a lizard on a windowpane. The only albums I actually completed were Abbey Road and Revolver .

Just tried it again and got 170 this time. I’m getting better all the time. This time, though, I missed In My Life ! I keep trying to remember the obscure tracks and forgetting the classics.

Gee, no, no way…! I don’t want to know which song is in which album by heart; sometimes I do (I pretty much know The White Album song-by-song) but mostly I just enjoy playing a CD and “discovering” what’s in there –I feel like a teenager again, listening to it for the first time. When I know a certain CD by heart I stop listening to it for a while, listen to other LPs or other musicians, and then go back to the Fab Four –and there they are, waiting for me, full of surprises. It’s like being in love forever; always dating without getting married and having the routine ruin it all!

I need to try this again later, but clear my mind for now so it’s fair.

Actually, that one is only the penultimate quiz, for THIS, my friends, is the ultimate quiz.

 

EDIT: I just finished that quiz, and I got all but ONE……………..Little Child . Ugh. I literally NEVER get that one – I got the Yellow Submarine  orchestral songs and all the other fillers, but not Little Child . Never Little Child . Not on the penultimate quiz either, which I took many more times.a-hard-days-night-ringo-12a-hard-days-night-paul-3ahdn_george_01    a-hard-days-night-john-1

It’s alright. I’d say it’s just another reason to listen to the Beatles.a-hard-days-night-george-9

My problem is the typing. Though I’ve been typing for 30+ years, I’ve never really gone beyond being a one-finger typist. I’m a good one-finger typist, but nowhere near fast enough for this.

I can’t use that as an excuse for my horrible score, because I learned how to type properly. :/ I got a really bad score. I had a complete black-out with Beatles For Sale and Rubber Soul . I nearly had almost all the songs on side 2 of the White Album and nearly all the songs on Abbey Road , but I still failed.

Now I know it is time to hold a Beatles album marathon.

I play this every once in a while, and now I can really see that I haven’t listened to the Beatles in a long time. Completely blacked out on a few albums, like the first few and let it be. Forgot about some of my favourite songs too, and forgot most of the covers they did (hence blacking out on the first few albums)

175/192, I could probably do better if I wasn’t under the last 2 minute pressure lol. Can’t believe I couldn’t remember some of my fav songs.

I had 126 with a few minutes left and I accidentally made the page go back!! I have to do it again now, and more songs are flooding my mind. Might be good…

Well i could name a very few, i need to come back from my Beatles hiatus which i have taken for almost a month. Another game came to mind was that we should turn it into last lyric letter sort of thing. Like we should write 3 or maybe 5 songs names like this                        

Another Girl   (write another song after the last letter)

Long, Long, Long

Girl

 

(Next Person your letter is L, please don’t write Long, Long, Long again cause game will get boring and no cheating !)
