### 2/5 — Frustrating

*2012-08-03, version 98800000001.0*

Ok till it gives the same lyrics twice but to different songs. Then tells you that you got it wrong when you know absolutely that you're right. Then gives the wrong answer- if you understand what I am saying.

### 1/5 — Lyrics Genius 60s

*2012-04-05, version 98800000001.0*

Faulty program. Same lyrics for two questions in succession but correct answer not offered with second question. This has been mentioned umpteen times but no effort to resolve problem. Plus scores gained are not always given in winners list. Winners list looks computer generated as it seems Milo is only other competitor with me!  Stopped playing due to these probs. would pay but lazy developers means I won't be doing that.

### 5/5 — So Fun!

*2011-12-10*

I'm actually surprised at how well I did. I knew many of the songs. But this app hasn't been updated in well over two years, which is a shame.

### 1/5 — I've given up

*2011-10-25, version 98800000001.0*

Deleted 
Bye

### 2/5 — Promising

*2011-06-19*

This app's UI is extremely polished, it was enjoyable to play.  However, after less than thirty questions I was getting not only repetition but outright error.  Lyrics being attributed to incorrect answers on my first two playthroughs, then on the third a flawless run.  My dad is insanely good at getting the songs from this era, so I've noticed it tends to make errors more often when he is nailing the answers very quickly.  Game is still enjoyable despite its shortcomings, willing to pay for an updated version.

### 2/5 — Going wrong

*2010-12-30, version 98800000001.0*

First exactly what the person said below me also I got 4850 and it said I got 300! Please sort it out

### 3/5 — Love the game. Hate the bugs.

*2010-07-13*

Love love love this game. Only problems are the questions are the same twice in a row and the correct answer isn't there the second time and when I do beat my score it doesn't record it over my other score. Fix this and I'll give five stars

### 3/5 — Nice little trivia app

*2010-04-11*

Fun and surprisingly challenging trivia game.  The questions tend to repeat somewhat.  Get it while it's free.  It's fun but I wouldn't waste any money on it.

### 3/5 — Shortcomings on song library

*2010-01-08*

I thought I'd pick up this game because it was free, and I enjoyed the 90's version. But after a number of rounds, the songs start to repeat themselves. It's been over 50 years, I'm sure we have catalogued all of the hit songs from this era by now. And lyric questions like "oh oh oh oh oh" make it almost impossible to determine a song.

### 2/5 — Would be ok if it always worked

*2009-11-18, version 0*

Sometimes this will give you lyric from previous question, and answer choices arn't related to that lyric.
