Unfortunately, unlike Blue Oyster Cult’s greatest hits, Hurdle #75 isn’t used very often in movies. However, it won an award at the 2000 Grammy Awards, a fact that should have helped narrow down the list of potential tracks.

You also get six attempts, so it’s not like you fail only after making a mistake.
Now, if you are nearing your last try and want to start a streak or keep it going, we have what you need.
