It’s November and November is all about Homecoming. The titles in this week’s Nickel Quiz contain home-y words.
The year that each song was released is listed after the lyric as an extra clue. And, as usual, scoring is on the honor system (no Binging or Googling):
- Correct Artist: 1 point
- Correct Song Title: 1 point
- Maximum Score: 10 points
