This 25-question quiz tests your knowledge of the lyrics of some our most famous winter holiday songs. Take the quiz and see. I got 80%, not too bad. Embarrassing though as I am a Christmas music junky. http://www.chicagotribune.com/carolquiz,0,4932856.triviaquiz Let me know how you did.

Well that was fun, I got 88% right, not too bad. I love Christmas music and start playing it in my car and home the day after Thanksgiving. My sister started about the week before Thanksgiving as did my oldest daughter lol. Runs in the family.

There was some of those songs that I had never heard of. I only made 78%. That is not good because I love Christmas music. Thanks for the link to the quiz.

Surprisingly I got a 92%! I'm a complete Christmas junkie. Christmas is my birthday and I've always totally immersed myself in it. I actually have won a couple of contests on the radio answering Christmas trivia. Have a great holiday!

Don't feel bad thats my score too, I didn't want to post it cause I thought I would be the only one with that low of a score.

I took the quiz and did very poorly. I only got a 32% as you can tell I do not know my christmas carols very well. It is hard to remember the lyrics to all of the christmas songs out there or particular lines. You did very well I see. I do not listen to the christmas carols too much or pay much attention to the lyrics. At least you did not get my score. LOL Thanks for sharing that quiz with us.

Okay, I did it, and got 92%. I missed the one about the Carol of the Bells, and the one that asked what phrase did NOT appear in a Christmas song.

I got a 76. Thought I'd do better, but I guess I don't pay enough attention to the lyrics. I usually just hum along with the tune. That was a fun test.

Well, I only got 64%, but most of the ones I got wrong were the religious songs. Since I don't listen to those very much, I'm not surprised. Of the ones that were not religious, I only got 2 wrong. That's not bad.

Golly gee, guess I had better brush up on my singing since I only got a 78% when I tried it. Of course there were 2 songs on there I simply never heard of or if I did I never knew the title. That was a fun thing, thanks for posting it.

Hello ElusiveButterfly, Count me in as a Christmas music junky. 80% for me too. I was also surprised that I didn't do better on the quiz. Geeze, now I'm gonna' have Christmas carols stuck in my head. As if that wasn't already going to happen (chuckle, chuckle). Thanks for the link. It's a fun, and cheery little quiz. Ho, ho, ho!

I got 36% correct. It said that I am not even trying. This is good. Would you mind if I posted it in the other forum I belong to?

I got a 72%. Kind of disappointing because I thought I'd done really well...oh well there were some pretty odd questions and options for answers!
