Hey Hey! Welcome along to Family Fortunes biggrin.gif

I'm Gavin and I'll be your host for this week's Buzzjack Chart Forum Quiz.

This week we are playing Family Fortunes. It's quite simple, answer the following questions with the correct answer, making sure your answer is the answer you think would be a popular other Buzzjack players.

Let me remind you that THIS IS NOT POINTLESS so we're NOT looking for the most obscure answers and that "Tricks" with giving the answer from UK sales chart, UK dance chart, UK albums streaming chart, Billboard chart etc. etc. will result in the wrong answer for you

Questions:-

1) Name a UK Top 5 hit single from a Welsh artist or band

2) Name a 'Now That's What I Call Music' album to feature 10 or more UK Number 1 singles (Must be part of the main numbered series)

3) Name an instrumental track which reached the UK Top 10 singles chart (Must have no sung or spoken vocals in)

4) Name a chart hit from between 1st January 2000 to 31st December 2005 which spent 15 weeks or more in the Top 40

5) Name a track which was Number 1 in the UK airplay chart during the year 2001

6) Name a male artist who enjoyed a UK Top 10 single as a featured artist on a David Guetta track

7) Name the title of a Coldplay album

8) Name a UK Top 40 single which makes reference to the weather

9) Name a UK Number 1 single which only ever spent 2 weeks in the UK Top 40

10) Name a duo or group who are no longer together that only ever had two UK Top 10 singles


You have until 23:59 on Saturday 2nd June to DM your answers to me.

Good luck! biggrin.gif

Really enjoyed this set of questions! Only had to check on a few & some of them didn't yield many obvious answers. Qs 2 & 10 in particular I had very little inkling as to what would be popular thinking.gif

Thank you! tongue.gif I've gone with my guess though wink.gif

I love these harder questions tbh, they take more effort but I had a lot of fun doing it despite the frustration

Strange that don’t tell me was number 1 in the airplay chart considering it was released in November the previous year .

Many thanks to everyone who has submitted answers so far. Just a reminder you have until midnight to enter. If you need extra time, let me know smile.gif

Just a friendly prompt with question 3 if the song has any vocals in even if it's spoken at the start, end or halfway through you will get the question wrong! Please check your answers as a few of you have fallen into the trap here.
