As if there weren't enough music quizzes already, now there's

                  John & Jer's Eklektik Music Quiz!
                  =================================
RULES

The rules are simple, and probably very familiar.  Just figure out the
artist and song title for each quote, and send it in using the
intructions provided below.

SCORING

Ok, see, it's like this.  Each question is "worth" 30 points.  These
30 points will be divided up between everyone who gets the question
right, with anyone who guesses only the artist or title getting half
of what the others get.  All fractions will be rounded up to the
nearest 1/2 point.  So theoretically, more than 30 total points can be
given out for one question if, say, 40 people answer it right (getting
1 point apiece, unless a few got it only half right, so they'd get 1/2
point.)

It all boils down to this: getting a really obscure one right can help
your score a lot.  (And there are definitely some obscure songs in
there. :)
