Q:Which question totally stumped 80s pop fans?
A:Only 42% correctly identified 1985 as the release year for a-ha's 'Take On Me.'
Surprisingly, more fans guessed 1984 (28%) than any wrong year — so close, yet so far! Turns out pinning down exact release dates is a real weak spot.
Q:How well did fans know Dexys Midnight Runners' biggest hit?
A:63% correctly answered 'Come On Eileen,' but a surprising 23% thought the answer was 'Blue Jeans.'
Nearly 1 in 4 fans invented a denim-themed hit that never existed — a hilarious misconception that makes 'Blue Jeans' the quiz's most convincing fake answer!
