Was this a chart-topping pop song in 1969 or 2019?
Travel down the "Old Town Road" to the age of "Aquarius."
In 1969, it was hard to scan through the radio dial without hearing "Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In." This year, "Old Town Road" seemed to be thumping inside every car and sports arena.
You can certainly hear the difference between the pop music of then and now — but can you read the difference?
Below, we've gathered the titles of huge hits from 2019 and fifty years ago. All but one of them were No. 1 smashes.

Never heard of the song in the year 2525
16/16. This one was easy. If I never heard of the song, I clicked on 2019. I was right every time.
Very easy. If I recognized the song, 1969. If I didn't, 2019.
I stopped listening to pop music about 20 years ago.

16/16. I've never heard of any of the 2019 songs but I've heard of all of the 1969 songs, so I just voted 2019 if it was something I never heard of.
