These are the results of Gerald's Lyric's Quiz #24.
Quite a strange competition imho as the lyrics server was still online when it started, then it was shut down for about 10 days and in the end it opened up again for queries but only returned the hitlists while the actual lyrics pages were still closed.
Made it more interesting for me and I'm glad that a lot of people were taking the challenge even without the usual aid by the swiss folks (btw: I wish them best of luck for the lawsuit. imho this doesn't help or protect the artists anyway and will only feed the tricky lawyers)
Okay, let's get back on the topic. Still 12 entrants went beyond the 100 points mark and Kevin only missed it by one point. WOW! Great job, folks.
The Shoosters ended up with more than perfect score as they were the only ones to identify the Edwin Starr sound clip, so they finished 20 points ahead of Tom, who knew everything but that particular song.
Okay, that's all for now, thanks everybody for participating.
