I'm sorry it took so long to get around to this, but the results are in for the Alt90's Music Quiz, 2007 Edition! Thanks to everyone who took the time to participate; this was not an easy quiz, and I'm grateful that y'all made effort to give it a go. Right now, it gives me great pleasure to announce the winner: with a very impressive 25 out of 33 correct (plus another three that were partially correct, but with misidentified tiles), our Grand Poobah of 90's Alternative is...[livejournal.com profile] domani! Congratumalations! Your prize will be in the mail as soon as I get off my duff to rip and burn the necessary doodads.

For those of you who were curious about the answers, here they are:

1) "Good," Better Than Ezra
2) "Seether," Veruca Salt
3) "Come Out and Play," The Offspring
4) "Cut Your Hair," Pavement
5) "Selling the Drama," Live
6) "Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth With Money in My Hand," Primitive Radio Gods
7) "Loser," Beck
8) "Stay," Lisa Loeb and Nine Stories
9) "Would?" Alice in Chains
10) "A Girl Like You," Edwyn Collins
11) "Sucked Out," Superdrag
12) "There She Goes," The La's
13) "Plowed," Sponge
14) "Feed the Tree," Belly
15) "Unbelievable," EMF
16) "Shine," Collective Soul
17) "Big Bang Baby," Stone Temple Pilots
18) "Popular," Nada Surf
19) "Sure Shot," The Beastie Boys
20) "Laid," James
21) "The Gentleman Who Fell," Milla
22) "She Don't Use Jelly," The Flaming Lips
23) "Spoonman," Soundgarden
24) "Low," Cracker
25) "Found Out About You," The Gin Blossoms
26) "Hunger Strike," Temple of the Dog
27) "You," Candlebox
28) "Sour Times," Portishead
29) "Voodoo Lady," Ween
30) "Drive," R.E.M.
31) "I Nearly Lost You," Screaming Trees
32) "Happier," Jennifer Trynin
33) "Cannonball," The Breeders

Some of these, I'm aware, were considerably easier than others, and there are a few that absolutely no one got correct. (Honestly, though, if anyone had gotten the Jennifer Trynin clip, I'd have been deeply impressed.) The most frequent mistake, by the way, was identifying the Flaming Lips track as "Vaseline"—right song, right band, but the wrong title.

Thanks again, everyone!

HOORAY!!!!! I so so so wanted to win!!! Wow, looking at the actual answers, there were quite a few song titles I got wrong. I moved to Kansas City last week, so you guys probably don't have my new address (and to be honest, I don't really know it either) I'll be in touch and OH BOY I'm so excited about that collection!!!!
