And the final results are in...
1 chrissmith276 - 42.5 2 Blade - 40.5 3= dan-G - 37.5 3= XhannahlongX - 37.5 5 jimwatts - 37 6 StoneDragon - 36.5 7 dj_tim_e - 35 8= jlj - 34 8= Bjork - 34 10= CianS - 33 10= n4yr - 33 12 Cremey - 32.5 13 Riser - 32 14= awardinary - 30.5 14= Ansel - 30.5 16 Dobbo - 30 17 PeteFromLeeds - 24.5 18 Grim Bréaper - 23.5 19 Jahq-o-lantern - 23 20 Pting Rollo - 22 21 paulgilb - 21.5 22 Dan17F1 - 19.5 23 vibe - 18 Well done to chrissmith276, that is a truly remarkable effort and I bow down to your superior musical knowledge, although unlucky on dropping that half point with The Beatles one! Also, you were the first to submit your answers so you can imagine how worried I suddenly was that I'd made the quiz too easy Thanks to all of you for taking part, I'm glad so many of you enjoyed the format, and I hope the three parts weren't too lengthy  it'd be great if you could let me know which part you enjoyed the most so I can bear that in mind for future quizzes!I'm gonna take a look at Wardy's album covers now, I only got a small handful on first glance so fingers crossed some more jump out at me...

Woohoo!
Thanks for hosting - really enjoyed the multi format. The paraphrased lyrics definitely the most challenging! |

Over the moon with 2nd place and a 40+ mark! Congrats to Chris for pipping me to the post with a near-perfect score
 Thank you so much for this quiz Mango! I loved the idea of three quizzes in one and a good spread of decades. Flawlessly executed

I can’t believe me a Gaga stan didn’t guess Poker Face in the paraphrased lyrics section!
I’m literally flabbergasted with myself at that especially as my guess was My Neck My Back The last section was my strongest!  Thanks for hosting this! Top ten again on leaderboard is good to see. |

Not coming bottom 5 is a victory for me. I'm usually shit at all non-FF/Pointless quiz formats (and I'm shit even at those half the time).
Thanks for hosting Mango and even more thanks for accepting my tardy votes

Aw man, I kinda rushed my answers and robbed myself of a top-10 placing because of that...but leaderboard aside, I'm impressed with how I did! I enjoyed all three rounds but the paraphrased lyrics stands out due to how challenging it was. Congrats Chris on your resounding victory and thanks Mango for hosting!
Really surprised I didn't recognize the intros to Don't You Want Me or Like A Prayer

Thanks for hosting Mango, I enjoyed the multiple formats. Very happy with 5th, though I really should have got the Lady Gaga one (I put Ciara but wasn't quite convinced). Well done Chris for the win!

Ah, I can see how the 'Green Day' and especially 'U2' text on the album covers can be made out if I squint a little but didn't think to do that at the time.
The only thing I'm really kicking myself over is missing 'Don't You Want Me' in the intro section after the lyric section had drawn me to listen to the song a couple of times  Nothing else in any section I think I was any close to getting.Thanks for hosting M4NGO! Would love to see more paraphrased lyrics but would be nervous about an entire round of them as I think it's probably the most difficult out of these three formats (unless a bit of help is given like you gave us with the decades and the fact they were #1 singles). QUOTE(M4NGO @ Oct 27 2020, 10:07 PM)  9. DaBaby feat. Roddy Rich - Rockstar I thought this would be close to a 100% correct guess rate seen as it's the most recent song in the list but it seems not! Ah, but some of us completely ignore the charts these days so I've never heard this or most of what's in the current top 40 before (Though I did try listening to a few recent #1s as the clip sounded very 2019/2020 - clearly didn't help/maybe I skipped over this one, it made me cast doubt over whether #3 was really One Direction and the red herring )

oh I was 100% sure that intro was The Clash
they should totally sue One Dire if they didn't, it's a total ripoff could have ended up much higher if it weren't for the 2 One Dire questions Questions about One Dire shouldn't be allowed in a quiz for grown up people tbh |

Great quiz MANGO - really liked the diversity and I'm pleased with 6th (after finishing in the bottom 3rd of the other two quizzes). 1 point away from top 3 too (damn you Estelle - I was convinced that was Feels by Calvin et al).
