Hey everyone! I'm very sorry for the mysterious disappearance over the past few weeks. Thank you so much for all the messages of concern, and for checking in on me. That is greatly appreciated. On a personal level (health etc.) I am absolutely fine. Unfortunately, the reason for my absence, is that I've been tangled up arguing with RUclips (again). For some inexplicable reason they don't like the way I create my content. Apparently it's an issue that I code all of my games myself. It's perfectly cool for others to use 3rd party software to quickly crank out videos (including music trivia), but apparently spending hundreds of hours to custom code my own quizzes is a problem. It truly boggles my mind. Since day one of starting this channel I have gone out of my way to create a music trivia experience that is completely different from anything else you can find on RUclips (or anywhere else). It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but many (you guys!) do embrace the challenge/interactivity, and together I think we've built an amazing community of diehard music trivia fans. Unfortunately, in this case, RUclips has decided they are going to play gatekeeper. I guess you, the viewers, don't get to decide what sort of content you like. They'll take care of that for you. I'm not exactly sure what they think they are protecting you from, but rest assured they are on the job! Anyways, as you can tell I'm very frustrated, but this is already a long rant, so I won't go on. The upshot is that I won't be creating any more music trivia for the time being, I guess. I'm extremely disappointed as this has been a long time passion project for me, and I've absolutely loved the chance to connect with you, my fellow music trivia diehards, every week. I will really miss it. I will continue to brainstorm and see if there is a way to bring back the channel in some way in the future. In the meantime all the best to you and your families. Thanks so much for supporting the channel and playing the games each week. I hope you had as much fun with them as I did. Friday nights just won't seem the same without you guys. ☹ Cheers, MM
We are sure going to miss you AGAIN!! Is there any way we can help fight the fight against RUclips!? What if you make your own website for trivia?! I’m so so sad we won’t get to have your weekly games and so sorry you’re going through this again! I told Paul two weeks ago, I said I bet it’s the stupid RUclips rules again and he’s back in a fight with them.
if you had any interest in creating a patreon, I would absolutely subscribe. I'm sure others would as well. This is mine and my girlfriend's weekly routine lol.
We are sorry to hear this is happening to you. But, we are also glad to hear that you are physically ok. Thanks for the update, and will hope that something shifts to where you can continue to do these.
glad to hear you are okay, you really have built such a beautiful little community and it’s a shame that youtube feel the need to try mess that up. hopefully you manage to find a way to make things work and are able to continue making quizzes in the future at some point i’ll definitely be keeping an eye on the channel for if that day comes. best wishes.
Wondering if the backwards song was Self Esteem by Offspring? Well we blew our perfect score lol!! We finally got stumped on a rap song 🎵 hehe 😅 thanks again for a FUN time. Always enjoy your trivia game with some incredibly fun music 🎶 🎉
RUclips is such a pain in the ass. Your videos are like my favorite thing to do when I get off work on Fridays. Perhaps you can start some kind of patreon or something. I would pay a few bucks a month for music trivia
@@madmartiganstriviaThanks! Ahhh, of course. I can hear it a bit now! You as well, looking forward to the next quiz. Loving the new categories each video :)
My bad, sorry! He was definitely on the list, but I had used both Danger Zone and Footloose in recent quizzes. I'm Alright from Caddyshack would have been another option though. Next time!
@madmartiganstrivia I'm free which was footloose or meet me halfway from over the top :p I do want to add I hear so many of these songs and cuss because I know it but can't place the damn name lol
Did you run into a problem with the Reused and repetitious content policy - lots of channels are being demonetized for that right now. One fix is to show your face during the game play, I know no one wants to do that but YT tends to grant monetization to channels that show a human face ...
“I listened to the first track and then I turned it off and put on Celtic Frost - To Mega Therion because I felt old and afraid and now I feel safe.” Copacetic!

Does "Lola" technically qualify for the "Who's That Girl" category? Keep those quizzes coming.
LOL!
I guess it depends on your politics🤔🤷♂️
Wondering if the backwards song was Self Esteem by Offspring? Well we blew our perfect score lol!! We finally got stumped on a rap song 🎵 hehe 😅 thanks again for a FUN time. Always enjoy your trivia game with some incredibly fun music 🎶 🎉
Ok so my wife decided to follow thru with the divorce after all-but this trivia still rocks!

Really liked "Name that Girl"
18,600 - and we know it’s the Offspring but no idea on the song! Great quiz, as always!
Awesome score, and the Offspring song was Self Esteem, in case you were curious. Thanks for playing and have a great weekend!
@@madmartiganstriviaThanks! Ahhh, of course. I can hear it a bit now! You as well, looking forward to the next quiz. Loving the new categories each video :)
I hope everything is okay!
Self esteem. Offspring. Great band. Awesome quiz. Loving the categories
Yep, you got the bonus, and I 100% agree, The Offspring definitely rocks! 👍Glad you are enjoying the quirky categories.
Cheers!
MM

I WILL hit 10,000 someday!
Great categories, MM!! 🥳
$4,400 and "Self Esteem" by The Offspring
This was our best board yet! Had a lot of fun 😊
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed the game, and thanks for playing!
Is the backwards sing self esteem by the offspring?
3,600 is my score for this quiz
Please do more 2000’s and newer
Please don’t
My mom and I hope you're doing okay.
Bonus song is The Offspring - Self Esteem
Correct! 👍
15,600 for Lisa and Paul today! This was a tough one, I thought one word songs were hard but nope it’s two word ones lol. And self esteem by offspring
Definitely tougher this week than last, so still a great score! And the bonus too. 👍
mmk. Sir, we need to chat about your 80's movies themes and its lack of Kenny Loggins. The brother did like every other 80s movie soundtrack
My bad, sorry! He was definitely on the list, but I had used both Danger Zone and Footloose in recent quizzes. I'm Alright from Caddyshack would have been another option though. Next time!
@madmartiganstrivia I'm free which was footloose or meet me halfway from over the top :p
I do want to add I hear so many of these songs and cuss because I know it but can't place the damn name lol
Is there any way to get the volume the same for each of the songs. Thank you for all the music quizzes.
So what's the backwards song?
We hope you’ll come back 😔
Hope you are well, we miss you! 😢
self esteem, the offspring
$20,600👍
Nice one! 🍻
@@madmartiganstrivia - I'll be *totally* screwed if I ever miss a daily double.😦 *EVERY* time I *always* bet it *ALL!* 👍
9:22 That's not a girl, my friend ;-)
And "Self Esteem" sounds about the same backwards heh heh.
My wife scored $21000 only missing Fight the Power and the knee by One Republic
$16800, one of my best games so far. That's the Offspring, I forget the name of the song though. Right, yeah-eah-eah
Did you run into a problem with the Reused and repetitious content policy - lots of channels are being demonetized for that right now. One fix is to show your face during the game play, I know no one wants to do that but YT tends to grant monetization to channels that show a human face ...
9000, and no clue about the backwards song
WTF man We needs our Trivias
Man…this was not my board today!
“I listened to the first track and then I turned it off and put on Celtic Frost - To Mega Therion because I felt old and afraid and now I feel safe.” Copacetic!
It's Jess!
New Girl reference! Nice!
Self esteem, The Offspring?
Self-Esteem by Offspring
Yep! 👏
@@madmartiganstriviaAwesome! Thanks for such a great quiz!
Self esteem by offspring
17/25
20,400.
Offspring idk song
Self Esteem: The Offspring.
13,800
Sadly I didn't get the "Amanda" answer.
That's my name!
Haha! I almost put Mandy by Barry Manilow in the quiz as well, but didn't because I already had Amanda in there! 😉
@@madmartiganstrivia I go by Mandie so I know that song well. I for the life of me don't know why I didn't get Amanda.
"Self Esteem" by Offspring
Error: Lola was not a girl.
$6,600. Boooooo.
Who's that Girl?
Not Lola!
(in my best Austin Powers voice) LOLA IS A MAN, BABY
🤣
I called you out and you disappeared! I'm sorry! Come back! Post more video! Please!
Seriously though......
Hope you're doing well
lola by the kinks isnt about a girl just sayin
errr you do know that Lola was a man in the song ... right!? so shouldn't have been in "who's that girl" category.
Yep, I like to have a little fun with my quizzes, so often add goofy categories and/or song choices that make people go, "Hey, wait a minute..." 😉
It is not „I want your sex“, it‘s „Faith“
Nope, that's definitely "I Want Your Sex".
Instead of playing the same clip twice for the answer, play a different part of the song.
