I was born in 1961, I enjoy the 60s and 70s. I was not into the 80s. I enjoy and still enjoy music from the 60s and 70s. If I had a time machine I would do it all over again. =)
Oh, the 60's. Life was just opening up for me. Entered university at age 16 and life followed from there....LOL. My score was 100% correct. It is easy when you have lived it.
Regarding, My Fair Lady, it is a musical based on the play, Pygmalion, by George Bernard Shaw. It was first performed on Broadway and starred Julie Andrews as Eliza. Jack Warner made the film refusing to cast Andrews in the role, believing her to be too unknown and opted for Hepburn. Hepburn received a lot of heat for accepting the role. Marne Nixon sang all of Eliza's songs, with Hepburn mouthing along. Disney stepped in and cast Andrews in Mary Poppins. Hepburn was not even nominated for her work while Andrews won the Oscar. Apparently, she was known well enough.
Ben, we lived in the Age Of Aquarius back in the 60's I remember it well. 😜 Julie Christie was my favorite actress then. Audrey Hepburn played Eliza Dolittle. Star Trek, Vietnam. Women's liberation, the equal Rights Amendment, the Civil Rights Act, JFK, RFK, The Moon Landing, the fantastic music, and the generation gap. As Dylan sang For the Tiems They Were A Changing."
Two quizzes in one day! That is a great Valentine's Day gift for me. So I think the bonuses are Little Eva and "Babs". If so, a perfect score. Hope you had a good Hearts Day. Cheers MD🥂
60’s smog so thick in the LA area you could cut it with a Knife. No recess. Key skates and a skateboard made out of a piece of wood and an old skate. A-bomb drills. Go-go dancers, hitch hikers, hair hair long beautiful hair, who wears short shorts? I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan. Fun times😂
I started this quiz thinking this was about music, but quickly realized this was about anything America stuff which was not up here in B.C. Canada. I could answer any music stuff, but other stuff was unknown. But it was fun trying to remember back to see how much was still my memory. I do have memories of all these times, but not correctly . So I would hear the answer - and go - of course - I knew that!! Thankyou for this fun quiz.
I remember the Blizzard of '66. Star Trek. Batman. Viet Nam. UFO's. Mini skirts. Paisley shirts. Muscle cars. Drag racing. Model kits. Comic books. Mad magazine. Playboy. Etc.
I was 3-13 years old during the 60's. So I was just too young to know a few of the questions. Still, I only missed three, but came close to missing a couple of others. For example, I was about to say heart transplant but then I remembered it was Christian Barnhard (SP?) so I knew it had to be liver. Its amazing what you can pull out of the clutter of your memory.
@@Quizzes4U Tie Dyeing garments and other materials is indeed ancient but I am unable to find any reference to anyone applying this to T-shirts until the 1960s, when it was an offshoot of the psychedelic era. The Tie Dye T-shirt is definitely a 1960s creation.
@@dennismccarty7728 The song The Locomotion was written by the prolific and very talented Carole King, a professional song writer at that time and later well known performer. Little Eva (Eva Boyd) was babysitting for Carole.
I remember in the early seventies, county dais had booths where you could make your own tie-dye t shirt. A white t shirt was attached to a spinning wheel, and you squirted dye out of plastic bottles as the rotating wheel spread the dye around.
33/40 I remember paper dresses although I never wore one. That fad didn't last long! I remember girls with paper dresses being chased by boys with scissors.
Valentina Tereshkova(sp?) was the first woman in space! Remember Twiggy? Christiaan Barnard did the first heart transplant......and the best music EVER!!
I have since discovered that Julie Andrews played Eliza Doolittle in the stage production of My Fair Lady. But the question did ask about the film, so in this quiz the answer was Audrey Hepburn. :)
Audrey Hepburn is my most favorite actress and humanitarian. More so, she was born in Brussels, the capital of my native Belgium so in a way I consider her a compatriot; before her parents moved north tho Holland where she grew up further and learned to speak my native language, proper Dutch...
The 60s saw me graduate from high school, serve 4 years in the Navy, married my first wife, the birth to my first child, and finally immigrated to Canada from California. After 5 very cold Winters in the province of Ontario, we moved back to California.
54 years in Alaska,by way of Florida an California.spent one winter in Ontario,Sault Ste. Marie. That winter was a breeze for me. But there are colder places, Ontario is the largest Provence.
Pretty good quiz. I missed 5. I lived in CA and was in San Fran for the Summer of Love. I did see a lot of Flower Children. And I was in NJ in 69 and was actually invited to Woodstock. A group of kids who I worked w/at a hospital was taking a carload. I refused! ! was not into alcohol, tobacco or drugs. or sex. My dad was a guard at Alcatraz. It was a famous break-out in the 60's and the prison closed. You never asked a question on that. Of course, you are from the UK? You did ask a lot of American questions, though.
1969: life began at 27! MGA, girls, parties, festivals, concerts, no haircut for 5 years, beard, sandals, bellbottoms, incense, music, music, music and friends.
Little Eva. Herbie was favorite actress (jk) Natalie Wood. Audrey Hepburn, was yours I'm guessing 'With a Little Bit of Luck'. The Beehive Hairstyle is what I remember most. Everywhere I went I thought I saw my mom. Oh, and the stories of spiders laying eggs and hatching in them was the stuff for nightmares. Great quiz, thank you.
Question 32. What didn't exist in the 60s. Walkman dishwasher or color TV. Answer was Walkman. But in Australia it was color TV. We didn't get it until 1974
Wasn't expecting to get 30/40 on a 60s quiz, but then again these were largely easy general knowledge questions. Of course I missed a lot of the pop culture stuff... even December 31, 1969 was nearly fifteen years before I was born.
I was born 1960.. so some were tough. I was just a kid then but great memory of the moon landing! I got 35.. little Eva for locomotion. But prefer Kylie! 😂😂
Born in 1944 and missed 5. Being a male with my head screwed on straight I never wore a paper dress (or any other kind of dress) from the'60's (or any other decade).
One mistake, tie dyed t-shirts not having been invented in the 60s'. We were wearing them from about 68 on, though commercially they were not available, you had to make them yourself.
Who did the locomotion first Little Eva(or Ava) 2nd Grand Funk Railroad 3. Kylie Minogue ( correct if I missed someone.) 35/40 Not to bad for being a baby for the first part of that decade.
The paper clothes came back in the 80s (assuming it was the same material). It was like waxed paper, only lightly plasticized instead of wax, or so it seemed. It also seemed to have synthetic fibers mixed into the paper to give it strength. I was probably 11, so I’m just guessing. The zippers, buttons, elastic, etc,… were standard, made of metal, plastic, and rubber. If you’ve ever balled a piece of paper into a wad and opened back up a few times until it was soft and flexible, imagine that with a slick plastic feel. In the 80s, it was used a lot for advertising swag for radio stations, concerts, theme parks, that kinda stuff. It actually held together much longer than one’s willingness to continue wearing it. 😏
I only missed 3/50 I knew all about the sixties, I was born in the fifties I see I have taken this quiz before p.s.The answer to the bonus questioon is "Babs" 🤔
36/40 with the options; 26/40 without. Q15 bonus is Kylie Minogue...? I think Q33 bonus is Julie Andrews? And for Q27, my favourite of those is Audrey Hepburn. 🙂[EDIT: Oof. Extremely wrong on both bonuses, especially given my answer to Q27...]

the answer to the bonus question about who popularized the Locomotion dance craze: Little Eva

Tie dyes was the 1960s I was there when people were wearing them!
The question was 'invented' though. They've been around for thousands of years.
Love this kind of decade's quizz. Now the 1970's , please
There's two 70s quizzes on my channel 🙂
I was DOING Tie Dye in the 60s
Yep, but they were invented a long time before that. 👍👍

What else was great about the 60’S ?
👍EVERYTHING👍
I second that emotion and raise it with a big AMEN
Except The Vietnam War, The Kennedys being assassinated. Martin Luthor King being assassinated and pretty much all of 1968.
I missed a lot I stopped counting as a lot of them I had no idea. But then I learned a lot more about the 60's. Thanks 😊

Great quiz. I'm A 60s baby.😁
36/40. Jean Shrimpton retired from modelling and moved to Cornwall where she still lives, aged 80 now.
Being a renowned 60s trivia expert I was surprised that I was unable to answer any of these questions !
I was born in 1968 though I still managed 28/40 which I believe is quite good.

Tie dye T-shirts were definately around in the '60s and the Loco motion was released in 1962.
Yes, that's true, they were around in the 60s, but they weren't invented in 60s. 👍🙂

The paper clothes came back in the 80s (assuming it was the same material). It was like waxed paper, only lightly plasticized instead of wax, or so it seemed.
