About This Quiz

You’re at the clipboard. The card says an album name, the door shows four years. Three are polite pretenders, one is legit. Don’t over-parse. Match the room: early-70s Motown warmth, late-70s studio sparkle, or the sharp 80s camera flash.

Let a few anchors help. Ben has soft-focus teen drama. Thriller is blockbuster neon with horror-movie grin. HIStory feels bigger, darker, steel-gray. Don’t chase numbers; chase lighting, drums, haircuts, the whole vibe package your brain saved for no reason.

Misses are rented, not owned. Keep tempo. You’ll finish half-smiling at a crooked poster, tapping the table like snare hits while your tea goes a little too cool.
