(Yet another) quiz...

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

(Yet another) quiz...

(Yet another) quiz... thing! Yay! Because Haley has nothing better to do! Inspired because my music library is actually on shuffle for once, and I love these things.

This time, open whatever application you use to play music (e.g, iTunes) and put it on shuffle. For each question, your answer is whatever your player chooses to play when you hit the next button.

In other words, iTunes>shuffle>read question>skip to next song>answer with song title.

And no, you're not expected to answer truthfully. It's supposed to be silly and nonsensical. That's why it's fun! However, you are allowed to write your comments on the music app's answers.
