Are these songs from the '60s, the '70s, or the '80s?

We'll name a song, you pick the decade!

 

This quiz is pretty self-explanatory. 

We'll name a big, hit song, and then it's your job to tell us which decade it came from. We'll even throw in the act that recorded the song! 

Three distinct decades, right? Should be pretty easy. Well, give it a shot, and be sure to share your score in the comments section below!

  1. Jean Knight - "Mr. Big Stuff"
  2. Chaka Khan - "I Feel for You"
  3. James Brown - "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag"
  4. Neil Diamond - "Sweet Caroline"
  5. Fleetwood Mac - "Everywhere"
  6. Aretha Franklin - "Who’s Zoomin’ Who"
  7. Vicki Sue Robinson - "Turn the Beat Around"
  8. Donovan - "Sunshine Superman"
  9. The Staple Singers - "I'll Take You There"
  10. The Temptations - "Papa Was a Rolling Stone"

  13. Sly and the Family Stone - "Everyday People"

13/15 I missed #2 and #15. Never heard that Michael Jackson song before.

For some odd reason I thought Fleetwood Mac’s song “Everywhere” was a late 70’s song.

I only know the 60s; after that I tuned out til the Beatles and the Stones.

Like FLETCH, I thot Sweet Caroline was from the 70's, I did my Neil Diamond impersonation thru the 70's, but yeah, I think Sweet Caroline was one of his first big hits. I got 9/15, coz I put several borderline earlier songs in the next decade. Oh well...

13/15 Missed 4. I thought Sweet Caroline was from 1970. Missed 9 because I can't remember the song.

How many times do you take the quiz before you post the score?

That's too bad to hear Eric Carmen passed away. Loved his music solo and with the Raspberries.
Very sad indeed :(

Since we are on the subject of 70's music. I just heard some very sad news yesterday. Eric Carmen, lead singer for The Raspberries passed away. I am devastated! The Raspberries are one of my favorite bands & their music was the soundtrack to my childhood & school days. R.I.P. Eric. Your music will live on forever!

8/15 I believe I have all the songs listed in one form or another. But I usually just have everything on shuffle play.
