I might have gotten it, but I have never heard of most of those songs.
What is the fun in a "puzzler" that just requires me to be familiar with a number of singers and songs??? I don't see the point. I either know them or I don't.
Trivia?
Never heard of any of those
The theme was "COLOUR ME" so actually it wasn't so hard, I thought it was fun
i 100% agree with bestgirl
I loved it! I liked the wide variety of song styles and artists. And I got a majority of them because I knew each title contained a color.
Great teaser!
