Q2 - To the nearest 1,000 how many copies of "It's Like That" did Run DMC sell in its opening week?





This was a huge smash in 1998 spending 6 weeks at #1. It sold 242,796 copies in its opening week so 243,000 is the correct answer here.

Xajnipi was the closest here with a guess of 240,000.... On the other end of the scale we had ...readyfor it who thought they sold 5,000 and Jade who thought it sold 1 million!!

Think I was at least somewhere in the right region with the Blazin Squad members! Can't remember what I put for the Run DMC question but probably way off. laugh.gif

ETA: Just checked and shocked I got Blazin Squad exactly right!

Q3 - What was the chart peak of Avril Lavigne's "Nobody's Home"?





This peaked at #24 though I think it deserved better!!.

Impressively 10 players get this bang on and we have a slew of players who thought it was a Top 10 hit

Haha I thought you may have meant that but your answer said 1000 - whether I took this as 1000 or 1000000 you were still 2nd last on that one either way! laugh.gif

Q4 - How many Top 10 hits has Ed Sheeran had?





Ed Sheeran has had 28 Top 10 hits to date!

5 players guessed correct. The shame bell is reserved for gavindeejay who thought Ed only had one Top 10 hit lulu.png

Thanks to Dj_tim_e and Mack making me laugh with their answers of "Too Many" laugh.gif

Q5 - How many weeks did Jason Mraz "I'm Yours" spend in the Top 100?





This spent a whopping 95 weeks in the Top 100 despite only peaking at #11!

Props to fchd who was the only player to get this spot on. Wooden spoon to roboplop who thought it was a mere 3 weeks!
