Westlife is a bit of a strange answer (no offence Chris Smith tongue.gif) considering the many #1 singles they had during the previous decade or two - due to the ambiguous wording of the question I didn't know whether the band should have no #1s full stop or just in that particular decade, so I had to play safe

Thought The Vamps would be an easy winner as they came close a few times and my other consideration, Union J, feel more forgotten

I interpreted as a boyband with hits in the 2010s but no #1s during that time... Bit silly of me perhaps!

I'm glad that Union J came into my head eventually because it was M.A.D. / Reconnected territory at first laugh.gif

HAD to be 'Shape of You'!

Well f*** you Ed...idk how to justify my "Perfect" answer, I clearly thought the Beyoncé stans would be out in force cry.gif or that Christmas #1 would have some sway drama.gif

I almost asked for a little clarification on questions 3 & 8 but hey, it's more fun and unpredictable when questions can be interpreted in various ways!

5. Name a female soloist with multiple top 10's, but no number one hits.

[10] Mabel: Dobbo, awardinary, coi, Dexton, MrAndrewMan, WhoOdyssey, Dan17F1, diva thin muffin, dan.G, Jahq, chrissmith276
[8] Janet Jackson: vibe, Bjork, paulglib, xajnipi, LewisGT, PeteFromLeeds, Jordan Lee, Jade, King Rollo
[5] Selena Gomez: jimwatts, n4yr, tgl92, Bré, gavindeejay, Riser
[2] Avril Lavigne: M4NGO, Scene, SamJudd
[0] Alesha Dixon: girlsaloudjunkie
[0] Shania Twain: West
[0] WRONG - Lil Kim: Mack



Another rather tight one, I must say I was quite shocked to see Janet Jackson get such a high score here - I'd never have known she hasn't had a #1! A couple of interesting choices here... Shania Twain being a fantastic shout for Pointless, but unfortunately not so for Family Fortunes. Also, another inspired choice by Mack - "Lady Marmalade" was a thing wink.gif Mabel, probably the most obvious choice, gets a healthy score of 10, leading the way.

Halfway through, and it's rather tight so far between a close top 5. Good luck!

6. Name any dance track that hit the top 10 in 2019.

[8] Kygo "Higher Love" (feat. Whitney Houston): vibe, awardinary, Bjork, Dan17F1, diva thin muffin, Jade, Bré, Jahq, King Rollo
[5] Calvin Harris & Rag 'n' Bone Man "Giant": M4NGO, paulglib, jimwatts, SamJudd, dan.G, gavindeejay
[5] MEDUZA "Piece of Your Heart" (feat. Goodboys): coi, xajnipi, WhoOdyssey, girlsaloudjunkie, Riser, LewisGT
[2] Regard "Ride It": Dobbo, n4yr, PeteFromLeeds
[1] Joel Corry "Sorry": MrAndrewMan, Jordan Lee
[0] Jax Jones & Martin Solveig "All Day & Night" (feat. Madison Beer): Dexton
[0] Sam Feldt "Post Malone" (feat. RANI): West
[0] Tones & I "Dance Monkey": chrissmith276
[0] Dua Lipa "Don't Start Now": Scene
[0] Jax Jones "This Is Real" (feat. Ella Henderson): tgl92
[0] KSI "Down Like That" (feat. S-X, Lil Baby & Rick Ross): Mack



Another close one... "Higher Love", arguably the biggest dance tune of 2019 has a narrow lead here, giving 9 contestants a healthy 8 points. Some controversial definitions of "dance" here, such as "Don't Start Now", and "Dance Monkey"... but I can see where Chris and Scene were coming from (and besides, I did speak of the boundaries being loose.). Aaaand, the less said the better about KSI's "Down Like That" being chosen... wacko.gif

7. Name a Drake track that has hit the top 5 in the past 5 years.

[19] "One Dance": Dobbo, M4NGO, awardinary, Bjork, coi, paulglib, jimwatts, Scene, tgl92, Dan17F1, diva thin muffin, girlsaloudjunkie, LewisGT, PeteFromLeeds, Jade, gavindeejay, Jahq, Riser, chrissmith276, King Rollo
[7] "God's Plan": vibe, xajnipi, n4yr, MrAndrewMan, WhoOdyssey dan.G, Jordan Lee, Bré
[1] "Nice For What": Dexton, West
[0] "Hotline Bling": SamJudd
[0] WRONG - "No Stylist": Mack



In all honesty I was expecting "God's Plan" to sweep the floor here, with "In My Feelings" in a close second place. Instead, Drake's 2016 dancefloor banger "One Dance" amasses a remarkable 19 points. Huuuge. Other than that, not much to note - aside from "No Stylist" getting a mention (which didn't hit the top 5 tongue.gif).

there was a thread about the biggest act without a #1 and that was Janet Jackson, so I imagined people would remember that

My first thought was 'God's Plan' just because 'One Dance' feels like so long ago laugh.gif but yeah, summer '16, so immediately changed!
