I know the song, but I got stuck on "Fire and Rain" which has that as a lyric. Struggled to figure out where water came into it, then ran out of time.

At first I was tripped up by John Denver's Rocky Mountain High lyrics, "I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky."

'Enhanced Interrogation' is just a fancy way of saying torture.

I was thrown by the "...and fire in the sky" also. Checked six lyric sites and found:

3 w/o any word between phrases: "smoke on the water, fire in the sky"

2 w/ "a" as the conjunction: "smoke on the water, a fire in the sky"

1 w/ "and" as the conjuntion: "smoke on the water, and fire in the sky."

Certainly didn't see a majority of sites endorsing the "and" version. Of course, I was wrong too - I always it was "the fire in the sky."

What the bloody hell is taffy? Something tells me this is a regional word (from either the US or the UK) so please use a more universal word next time.

There is no other word for taffy. It is not toffee if that what you are thinking.

I often wonder if all the whinging about "ameri-centric" questions on this site only comes across as crass because of a language barrier.

What a fun quiz! Just a quick recommendation: you could include "The Shape of Water", "Water for Chocolate", and "Water for Elephants" as answers.

Distilled water, mineral water, water over the dam, all of no use with this quiz. But I still scored 16/20. Thanks!
