Some of these were difficult to answer because a lot of your "antonyms" were used in the form of slang. For example "Your death wouldn't rule me" in that context the word rule comes of more as like if you were to rule over somebody like a King. Other than a few other questions like that overall a fun quiz.
Yes, rule the way it is used here is no antonym of suck. Someone rules, as in "is awesome". And someone rules you, as in "controls you". So you are ruled by someone.
the way it is used here is grammatically incorrect.
rule is also slang in this instance, why not use a slang antonym for a slang word? it took me a minute but I got it even though I've never heard of the song
"Killed" would be a better opposite for "Born", as one can be born or be killed. One cannot be "Died". I'm not trying to be picky, but if the word had been "Killed" I would have gotten the answer.
Yes, born needs an auxiliary verb. You get born and you die. Though they both mean things that just happen. The get in getting killed refers to someone activiely doing it. So even though the amounts of word needed are closer in your example, language wise they are not closer at all. (and also not meaning wise)
Funny quiz idea; the problem with quizzes like this, however, is that there is often more than one technically correct answer. For instance, "Big Daddy" is a song by Talking Heads (and for me, it's much more familiar than Big Poppa).
Got 100% even including the songs I've never heard of before- even "Your Death Wouldn't Rule With Me," bit surprised I figured that one out. Lots of death and dying on this quiz...
This is because of the fact that if pairs of words are "antonym'd" the result is a double negative or positive, ie the overall meaning is the same and not the opposite. But the quiz is really just a fun thing of thinking of antonyms for each significant word and figuring out a song title. I actually got the "rule with me" one without believing it until I tried it in Google, because I've never heard of that one (whereas I know at least two songs called Without You by Harry Nillson alone!)
It might not be being used literally, but most of the other answers have the actual opposite words, even if they arent the literal replacement. Rule isn't the opposite of Suck anyway, if you wanna go literal it's gotta be another slang word, like pimpin or pwn or whatever, cos the slang aspect is what messes it up
These are great! So funny. I loved this quiz. "The Fake Fat Sunny" is by far the best, although they were all hilarious. "Do start doubting"....so good.
It's already been said, but Heaven and Earth are not opposites. Like, at all. Please change it to something else, like Sky which has already been suggested.
Could it? Genuinely asking. Tomorrow is the day after today, and yesterday is the day before today- opposites. Today is the day before tomorrow or the day after yesterday, but tomorrow is not the day after tomorrow nor the day before yesterday, so in my head only yesterday and tomorrow are antonyms. Today is different than tomorrow, but not opposite per se
Ball v cube is terrific; gotta chuckle at that one. Really had me scratching my head as well.
Box - interesting suggestion. It did get me wondering what is the best logical opposite for "ball".
One could go the whole hog and have the antonyms of words like "of" - that is effectively the ablative, so maybe you could have "at" or "to" (the equivalent of the dative) as the opposite. But that would be going too far.
Was this expanded? I left a comment saying I got 100% before but just now it says my point total increased by 5. I don't recall Wrecking Ball being on here before.
Don't worry, it took me also three attempts to finally get that one, and even then I almost didn't. My initial thinking was "Breaking Ball", and when that sounded like something familiar, it started to dawn on me.
I love this quiz - only missed two. I've never heard of Big Poppa, though I did try an educated guess at Big Pappa and other variations to no avail. I also didn't get "Wrecking Ball" - I don't think it's too picky to say that cube and ball are not antonyms. They're just 3D shapes (well technically ball is just an object) which, as others have mentioned, can't have antonyms.
Disappointed that I didn't get Wrecking Ball, I remember hearing it a lot when it came out. There are so many potential parody songs here, much of the rest are very dark such as Hate Mansion and Died to be Tame. Dyin' la Muerte Cuerda is easily both.
I kept thinking false grays was true blue. It didn't really fit but I couldn't come up with colors as the opposite of grays! And I didn't get Wrecking Ball - I was thinking sphere. not ball.
I can support the argument that a cube is the opposite of a sphere, but it's definitely not the opposite of ball. Thinking about what would be the opposite of ball, I immediately thought of net. In most sports, a ball goes into a net (even if it goes through a hoop first). Can anyone come up with something better?
the way it is used here is grammatically incorrect.
Otherwise, awesome quiz!

Rule With Me".
Nice quiz!
Well done! :)
