Dazzy's Quizzes - Come Join The Fun [Round 5: Riddle Me This]

edited July 2021 in The Rail
The small football names quiz I posted the other day seemed to go down a treat, so I thought this may be a fun thing to do, and keep me occupied.

It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but everyone is welcome to join in.

I'll admit I am kind of winging it to begin with, hopefully this first one turns out okay and the idea can definitely evolve into all sorts of things. And I can post at least one of these things a week.

The first quiz is really simple, mainly just me testing the waters. It's a NAME THAT TUNE quiz & the theme is very common around here.

So everyone, name these tunes and artists from their intros. With any luck, if you click the link, they should play fine.

    Well they all seem easy to me apart from number 1 which is totally impossible. It sounds very crisp tho, as in the sound is good quality.

    This might be the best quiz so far.

    Really?

    I thought number 1 should have been an easier one, considering what brought us all here to begin with.

    Anyway, glad the audio played successfully, and 'the best quiz' is a great compliment. Thank you.

    I have a few more ideas, and preparing the next round. Ready to be posted once someone can name tune number 1 :D

    Well now you just said that I fired up The Gambler. I do not recall it starting like that but by golly it does.

    Correct!

    I maybe thought it would be easy on how famous and well loved that song is. I guess naming a song simply from the intro is totally different from hearing lyrics or a chorus.

    It probably didn't help, that I've heard that song like 2,481 times :D

    And congrats to, @MAXALLY @waller02 and @kapowblamz on completing my first (hopefully of many) quizzes

    Now that the testing of the water is complete, the more difficult next quiz will be posted shortly.

    Well done Dazzy.

    Thanks.

    I was hoping by making it difficult it'd take a bit longer to complete, but at the same time, by using countries, everyone can make decent enough guesses.

    There's always a chance to give extra clues down the line if need be
