Beatles Songs Quiz

Thanks! Now to find a spare 15 minutes and a comfortable chair...

189! A bit more time and I might have got them all. Except Komm Gib Mir Deine Hand and Sie Leibe Dich which have been criminally omitted :P

Since the early 70s this list has been considered the "official" list of songs the Beatles released during their recording career- to include "Free As a Bird" would be to include all songs released for the first time on the Anthology series (in the mid nineties). Then there's the "Live at the BBC" songs, Hamburg bootlegs, Christmas stuff and more- I think this list is comprehensive enough :)

WOW! Great quiz but......not NEARLY enough time. I couldn't have typed in all those names even if I had the albums right in front of me!! Need AT LEAST 20 minutes! And by the way, who are these creeps who are typing from a list? Ever heard of the word CHEATING??? If you don't know the answers then try another quiz. Don't skew the stats for those of us who play fair.

My Sharona was The Knack...

only got 75, and I used to be really in to them when I was younger. :(

And there's an hour of my life well spent. Took me four tries to get them all in time, another 5 minutes would be GREATLY appreciated. Took me longest to remember the name of Michelle, but I knew it was the French one!

im kinda ashamed of myself. I really LOVE the beatles, and i only got 121 out of 210. :(

I've got a feeling, that this quiz needs more time, oh yeah. Oh Yeah!

More time would be nice.

How do you make the separate sections for each album like that?

My performance on this quiz best summed up by the expression at the top of column 3.

This is almost impossible. I've managed to get about 94 in time given. The only way this is possible is if you literally have another tab open with the answers on it and even then I only did it with 5 seconds to spare.

Love this quiz! Typically I end up around 110 and facepalm at the list of songs I forget.

Nice quiz!!

I suggest moving the albums around so they're in chronological order or at least putting the two white album discs so they appear next to each other.

Possibly, but I'm not sure about that myself, adding 'free as a bird' and 'real love'

Doing it by cheating (having the right answers in another window besides this one) I had about 9 minutes over. Would say the time is about right now.

Got all of them wiht like a minute to spare! Woo hoo! I just go by album and then look up the rest i don;t know. :)

I am very disappointed in what I forgot to put.

I got 4% come at me... (most of the songs i got i copied from tthe album title.. LOL ;)

100% with 4:03 left, i knew them all it was the typing that does your head in

i only got the famous ones that i know

I used to listen to the Beatles a lot, but haven't listened to any albums in a while. Only got 19.

can we have albums sorted chronologically please?

Interesting to see how the percentages come out, although I think the sheer volume of songs makes it difficult to remember everything, even the obvious ones (I got Old Brown Shoe, Yer Blues, and Chains, but forgot Strawberry Fields Forever...d'oh). I am surprised only 35% knew In My Life, right about the same number as knew Girl, which feels much more obscure to me. Maybe I have just heard "In My Life" at like 100 weddings, so it seems more famous? I suppose the Beatles have reached such a level of saturation that, after the 20 or songs absolutely everyone knows, it's really about who introduced you to the band, what they emphasized, and then curious experiences through which you picked up other songs. There's a busking duo near my subway stop that always plays "Baby, It's You." To most, that's an obscure cut, but it's always one of the first three or four Beatles songs that come to my mind, just because of which train I ride. I think it's neat the Beatles are that ubiquitous.

If you like this quiz try "Mal's Towns/Cities mentioned in BEATLE ALBUMS. "

My best score is 201. Usually in the 190s somewhere.

Challenge version: minimize the screen so that you cannot see the album names or blanks but only the running count. Shuffle between albums as though you were going to hear it as a mix. I have been trying it this way for a long time but have never made it to 210.

"I'll Be Back" and "You Can't Do That" should be flipped, as should "I'll Follow the Sun" and "Mr. Moonlight"

149/210, I think this is a good score. I completely failed Help!, Beatles For Sale, A Hard's Day Night, and With The Beatles! I got almost all of Let It Be (Only forgot "I've Got A Feeling"), Please Please Me (Only forgot "Boys"), and Magical Mystery Tour (Only forgot "Blue Jay Way"). Got more than I thought I would in White Album and Singles. However, I got all of Abbey Road, Rubber Soul, Revolver, Yellow Submarine, and Sgt. Pepper.

How did you format this? I've tried doing a similar one for Home Free, and I get hit by block limits and they all disappear off to the side and I can't view them. Help would be much appreciated ;)

I got 210 out of 210, because I'll have you know that I'm Ringo Starr.

They're literally my favs

How did only 75% get Hey Jude though?

Can you accept just "Anna" and "Money" since those are the actual titles of the songs.

That. Is. A lot. Of songs.

"Yesterday" is not the most guessed song. Interesting.

Interesting - Yellow Submarine is the most-guessed song that isn't also the name of an album.

Hey Jude #2 and Yesterday #3

I'd put 30 mins for this if it were my quiz. You need to be basically typing constantly for 20 mins, and add some thinking time eh?

This is extremely hard, even if your really into their whole discography. Knowing the names of the songs isn't that important when you listen to album. So recalling the more obscure tracks from the minor albums is tricky.

'Money' should be accepted for 'Money (that's what I want)'. It's a motown cover and is usually just referred to as 'Money'.

The song Glass Onion is useful for recalling other songs. 'I told you 'bout Strawberry Fields, you know the place where nothin' is real'

I suppose adding "Now And Then" wouldn't make much sense, as "Free as a Bird" and "Real Love" would have to be added, along with all of the Anthologies and BBC songs...

So, it would be best to keep the songs released in the period in which the Beatles were still together.

I love this quiz!

The ones I've been listening to the most lately are Think For Yourself and I Want You
