Devon

Wertz - 2 correct.

Wertz

So #2 is wrong track
I knew n#1 wasn't right...wrong decade too

Okay gonna change #2

SoulIISoul-Back 2 life

Makaveli

You got 2 right, which just happened to be the only one I know.

Back To Life is from the 80's I think.

Devon

Sorry guys... #2 is wrong... it's a 90's song you're after...

I should have been clearer Wertz. Out of your 4 previous guesses, you got 2 correct and 2 incorrect, rather than #2 being correct, which is still incorrect.

Wertz

No I got what you meant and I know which two are correct...just wanted to change the

soul 2 soul t

rack for another...both are from late 89 so not 90s but that 's what they sound like, the kick drum at least.

Okay last guess for answer no.2 :

pm dawn - set adrift on memory bliss

That's me all out, not got a clue about any of the rest...

Devon

Think more 1992-1993 for song #2 and you're getting warmer. Male singer born in Cuba...

Wertz

Ah knew I knew it

Just another day by Jon Secada

/shudder

Okay I'll let someone else get the other 9 :rolleyes:

Devon

Hey... it got him a grammy along with a nom for best song and best new artist.

Now.. anyone else dare to take on the 90's or should we go back to the 80's...

Makaveli

So 2,7 & 8 are right now yeah?

Also, I see how I completely misread the 2 correct first time round. Funnily enough I read it properly this time.

Devon

Yes well done to merritt for getting another 2 that hadn't been previously guessed. Out of his 7 guesses, he got 5 correct and 2 wrong. Oh the suspense...

smashey

I told you the nineties are a bit of a blur. There are a couple there that I still don't recognise.

Devon

This next one should be a tad easier. Lots asked for a 90's quiz claiming they were too young for the 80's. Fair play to Nea for getting 3 and 6 though...
