Scores

  1. 3 and above.

    Forget about the B-list, you didn't even make the Z-list. Try again.

  2. 5 and above.

    Hmmm ... like a lot of B-side, you're just there to make the rest of us look good.

  3. 8 and above.

    Wow! That was a pretty good attempt, but falling short of greatness. Try again!

  4. 10 and above.

    Like a true B-side that surpasses the supposed hit song, you've proved everyone wrong. You nailed it, well done! Now go tell the world.
