18/23. Accidentally clicked the wrong answer for Stayin' Alive, and had no idea that Step By Step, Superstar, RESPECT, and Girls Just Wanna Have Fun were covers.

Didn't realise the Cyndi Lauper song was a cover.

I've never heard the original of Girls Just Wanna have Fun
but I know a guy wrote it and recorded it first and was sung from a guy's perspective
think Cyndi Lauper changed it quite a lot to fit in her style

The original version of Girls Just Wanna Have Fun by Richard Hazard instead of being a feminist anthem becomes a hymn to cheating nymphomaniacs as shown on the
middle 8 that was left out Cyndi Lauper's version:

I know your love for him
Is deep as day is long
I know you'd never be the
Thing to do him wrong
But when I knock on the door
I'm close now, you could come
It really wasn't important
'Cause girls just wanna have fun
Yeah, girls just wanna have fun

21/23: There were two that I knew weren't written by the performers but wasn't aware of the original recordings of.

Coincidentally, I was (and still am) listening to the original of one of the songs in the quiz! I got that right, obviously.

I got the first 10 correct but ended up with 16/23. There's quite a few that I never knew were covers.
