Since I began the First century, it was felt that it would be fitting for me to begin the Second century, also. Check back in about six years to see if we're still going. Some of the songs on this quiz have been recycled from GOLQ01-GOLQ51 (but with different lyrics). The quiz does not contain any themes that I am aware of.
