    yeah, that is the literal translation, but I didn't know of any band named Sugar....so I went with the Sweet because at least I had heard of them

    Sugar is/was a great band back in the '90s....lead singer was Bob Mould (Husker Du). They had a couple minor hits on college radio off the album Copper Blue (songs: Changes, Helpless, If I Can't Change Your Mind). They were the loudest band I have ever seen live.

    ....pretty surprised that wasnt the right answer
    In my world everyone is a pony,
    and they all eat rainbows and pooh butterflies!

    Has anyone tried the online cryptic music quiz on this site? I'm up to question 54 of 665:eek: but I have parked 15 of those to go back to.
    I got stuck on number two for a while "oysters mad at heavy traffic".;)

    it's the link on the first page, it says downloadable quizes, then next to it online quizes, if you click on online quizes then the music section it's called gav and arno's cryptic music quiz.

    That's the link Chris01 posted not me.:)

    I was only able to get 99 right on the first go round. I don't think I can keep this up though, my boss might not think this is good productive work.
