### 1/5 — Yawn

*2010-11-23*

So painfully boring.

### 2/5 — Too much Mariah

*2011-02-24*

Every other question is Mariah carey. There was way more artists in the 90's than her. It's the same 50 questions that keep coming back over and over again. And only featuring 15 or so artists. And please stop with all the Mariah Carey questions!!! This game has potential to be amazing but please more content!!

### 2/5 — 2much mariah

*2010-11-28, version 0*

Ok if all u listened to was mariah Carey , would be better with more variety

### 2/5 — Eh

*2010-04-03*

It would be great if it didn't shut down after every question.

### 2/5 — It's ok for free

*2010-01-30*

For free this is a fun app for a while, but I found that even after a few games the lyrics began repeating...won't take long to get bored with this one. I was going to get the '80s version but if there aren't that many different lyrics offered how much fun will that be?  I can't believe that a full decade of songs to choose from and that there are that many repeated lyrics in a game.

### 2/5 — Eh

*2009-12-19*

It keeps closing on me!

### 3/5 — Not bad

*2012-11-16*

It's ok, except for the fact that every other song is Mariah Carry. They should add more variety.

### 3/5 — Shuts down

*2009-12-26*

It's a fun app but it keeps shutting down on me after I finish the 20 questions and doesn't save my score!

### 3/5 — Some good ones!

*2009-11-28, version 0*

Very good app, love these type of apps where u have to guess lyrics, seems to be alot of mariah Carey mind!!! Will get the others for sure..

### 5/5 — Poop

*2010-05-10*

I play this while I'm on the jon i would be more happy if this costs money
