Lyrics Quiz: Hot 100's Top 100


Fifty years ago Billboard introduced a new chart to see what songs fans were purchasing the most. I have cherry pitched fifty songs from that list that are on my iPod for the next two lyric quizzes. As always you need to put both artist and title in the comments section (or you can e-mail me) and if you are correct I will un-bold it and give you credit. The Lyrics Quiz is for entertainment purposes only so please do not use anything besides your own meandering mind to help you up with the answers (that mean no searching for the list to help you). Now onto the quiz:

1. Take me by my little hand and go like this.
2. Man it's a hot one like seven inches from the midday sun. (Smooth - Santana and Rob Thomas; guessed by Taylor Blue)
3. I took you to an intimate restaurant, then to a suggestive movie. There's nothing left to talk about unless it's horizontally. (Physical - Olivia Newton-John; guessed by Angie)
4. Take a sad song and make it better. Remember to let her into your heart then you can start to make it better. (Hey Jude - The Beatles; guessed by Angie)
5. I need your arms to hold me now. The nights are so unkind. Bring back those nights I held you beside me. (Un-break My Heart - Toni Braxton; guessed by Rebekah)

11. There's no love like your love, and no other could give more love. There's nowhere unless you're there. All the time all the way . ((Everything I Do) I Do it for You - Bryan Adams; guessed by Angie)
