Let's get going!

1. Name a thread posted in the Chart forum weekly that isn’t the Friday Chart Show thread



21: iTunes Weekly Thread – Yorkie3 – gavindeejay - SM351 – vibe – Jahq – Bjork – HarryEzra – danG – Mack – 777666jason – Theo – Jade – Dobbo – Addy – Riser – Suedehead2 – Dannyboy – LewisGT – Bré – Midge – Ultra – WhoOdyssey
3: Friday Chart Predictions – Pete – Chez – FleetSeb – TS0301
2: Top 100 Singles & Albums – paulgilb – CianS - SamJudd
1: Reshuffle Chart – Dexton – Jafet
0: Sales – Zárate
0: New Releases – Jupiter
0: Spotify Chart Thread - Sarah
Happy Birthday Thread – cqmerqn

I did think this question would be a runaway winner, but I didn’t think it would be the iTunes thread! Still as popular as ever (despite songs only needing to sell 3 copies to go Top 100 now), Buzzjack certainly hopes iTunes doesn’t shut it’s doors for good, or we’ll all be confined to the Spotify bi-monthly thread (or maybe a new Amazon thread ) Friday Chart Predictions is second, but by no means close, and the only other scoring answers are the Top 100 thread and the Reshuffle Chart, which has had at least six different hosts since I joined, but hopefully is a bit more stable now with Dexton. Our nul-pointes are the Sales and New Releases threads, and the Spotify Chart thread (which, as I said earlier, is bi-monthly). Cqmerqn’s first answer is a taste of what’s to come from him for the rest of the questions.

Posted by: Jüpiter 6th May 2018, 04:41 PM

Surprised to see that win and also by a landslide, but that's also probably because I don't think I've ever looked at it myself! Didn't even cross my mind

Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 6th May 2018, 04:43 PM

2. Name a #1 by an artist with an Artist Forum



11:Dua Lipa – New Rules – Bjork – HarryEzra – Dexton – CianS – Mack – Theo - TS0301 – Jade – SamJudd – Midge – Jupiter – WhoOdyssey
4: Dua Lipa – One Kiss (with Calvin Harris) – Yorkie3 – danG – Jafet – Riser - Suedehead2
2: Taylor Swift – Look What You Made Me Do – paulgilb – Ultra – Sarah
2: The Saturdays – What About Us – LewisGT – Bré - Dobbo
1: Britney Spears – Baby One More Time – gavindeejay - Zárate
1: Ariana Grande – Problem – Pete – Jahq
1: Kylie Minogue – Can’t Get You Out of My Head – Chez – Dannyboy
0: Little Mix – Shout Out To My Ex - SM351
0: Spice Girls – Wannabe – vibe
0: Lady Gaga – Bad Romance – FleetSeb
0: Britney Spears – Toxic – Addy
Louisa – YES – cqmerqn

I’m actually surprised New Rules didn’t get more votes, come to think of it! A Buzzjack favourite and one of the newest artist forums, Dua gets the top two answers, the second most popular being the current #1 which I can only assume people didn’t go for as they saw it more as a Calvin song. Taylor gets two points, alongside What About Us (PLEASE put artist names, Dobbo you were about 10 seconds away from getting no points for choosing a P!nk song that wasn’t #1 before I realised ) and our single pointers include Ariana’s Problem (which is the first #1 by the first artist alphabetically, so I’m annoyed more people didn’t go for it), a Britney and a Kylie. A few reasonable answers get nul as well.

Posted by: ubɹǝɯbƆ 6th May 2018, 04:46 PM

I’m slaying

Posted by: Dobbo 6th May 2018, 04:46 PM

So long gone are the days when anything Saturdays related would be a guaranteed top answer.

And sorry Pete!

Posted by: Mack. 6th May 2018, 04:48 PM

Thanks Dua Lipa worth the punt there.

Posted by: Jade 6th May 2018, 04:49 PM

Yay, off to a brilliant start with two top answers *.* iTunes instantly came into my head, as it has quite a legacy on here (The Saturdays vs. John Newman week, the term 'iLoons' etc.) and is still popular now. Then 'New Rules' was just the first to come into my head as well, such a well-loved song on here.

Posted by: Bjork 6th May 2018, 04:50 PM

My first thought was the Spotify thread for q1
But then i realised the thread is not weekly

Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 6th May 2018, 04:52 PM

3.Name an artist who followed up a hit with a song peaking between #41 and #75



3: Lukas Graham – Pete - TS0301 – LewisGT – SamJudd
2: Zara Larsson – gavindeejay – Jafet - Jupiter
2: Rihanna – danG – Jade - Dobbo
1: DJ Khaled – Yorkie3 - CianS
1: Luis Fonsi - SM351 – Midge
1: George Ezra – FleetSeb – WhoOdyssey
1: Charlie Puth – Jahq - Riser
1: Calvin Harris – Bjork – Theo
1: Taylor Swift – Dexton - Ultra
0: Celine Dion – vibe
0: Daniel Powter – Chez
0: Tomcraft – paulgilb
0: Louisa Johnson – HarryEzra
0: David Guetta – Zárate
0: Sam Sparro – Mack
0: Passenger - 777666jason
0: Lou Bega – Addy
0: Harry Styles - Suedehead2
0: Cheryl Cole – Dannyboy
0: Jess Glynne – Bré
0: Madonna – Sarah
The Snake ft. danG – cqmerqn

PANDER TO THE HOST PEOPLE! Four people who actually have eyes managed to notice the subtle hint in the banner, although the point advantage they get is minimal. Zara and Rihanna both pick up 2 with very notable flops Kiss It Better (which kicked up a stink on here) and So Good. A bunch more got a single point (well done to you guys) and we get an avalanche of zeroes as well.

Posted by: Dobbo 6th May 2018, 04:54 PM

Oh I had forgotten about kiss it better! I was referring to stay followed by pour it up but no matter.

Yep completely missed that hint

Posted by: Jade 6th May 2018, 04:56 PM

Ooh I didn't even think to pander to the host 'Kiss It Better' immediately came into my head as a shocking song to just miss out on the top 40, after such a smash in 'Work'. I did nearly switch to Zara Larsson though. Ah well, yay for scoring points nevertheless!

Posted by: Jüpiter 6th May 2018, 04:58 PM

I feel like Pour It Up would in 2018 probably chart better than Stay!

re Lukas Graham I had no idea that wasn't a one hit wonder

Posted by: Bjork 6th May 2018, 04:59 PM

Thought Calvin was the obvious answer with Feels
And its follow up totally flopping, Faking it, i think it was

Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 6th May 2018, 05:04 PM

4. Name a regular Buzzjack Charts contributor who joined the site after the start of 2017



28: Dexton – Pete – Yorkie3 - gavindeejay - SM351 – vibe – Chez – FleetSeb – Jahq – Bjork – HarryEzra – danG – CianS – Dexton – Jafet – Zárate - 777666jason – Theo - TS0301 – Jade – Dobbo – Addy – Riser - Suedehead2 – Dannyboy – LewisGT – Midge – Ultra – Jupiter – WhoOdyssey
2: WhoOdyssey – paulgilb – Mack – Bré
0: Sergejdordij98 - Sarah
0: Platinum – SamJudd
Joseph – cqmerqn
Yeah, well Dexton basically nominating himself as the answer scuppered this one one of the few Australian posters here, he’s really nice (when he’s not ruining Family Fortunes questions), and, if I remember correctly, is a Justin Timberlake fan. The only other point scorer is the lovely WhoOdyssey, who I’m also warming to. Personal Charts regular Sergej gets a zero, alongside platinum (who?).

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 6th May 2018, 05:05 PM

Thank you to Paul, Mack & Bre!

Posted by: Jade 6th May 2018, 05:06 PM

Yay! Dexton stuck in my head, because I created a Lounge thread not too long ago called 'How has BuzzJack changed since you joined?' and I think he was the only person in the thread who said they had joined in 2017 I did consider WhoOdyssey as well though so yay for sticking with my gut.

Posted by: 777666jason 6th May 2018, 05:07 PM

Sorry to be a nag but you don't seem to have put my answer in the results for question 2

Oh crap just seen my inbox

Posted by: Bré 6th May 2018, 05:08 PM

Kinda forgot we had a Dua Lipa forum ngl. The Saturdays are still my first thought for an artist forum but I guess that's a little old skool these days ~

For #3 I took the highest artist in the current iTunes chart that applies to, I realise now that when this thread opened Jess Glynne's song hadn't been released yet so that was probably a stupid move (not like I missed out on many points anyway).

I guess I might as well boycott the rest of these results after forgetting about Dexton though. I forgot he joined so recently oops (may have read the question as 'since 2018' instead of 'since 2017')

Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 6th May 2018, 05:19 PM

5. Name a song which was in the Top 10 on its 20th week in the charts



11: Ed Sheeran – Shape of You – Yorkie3 – Jahq – Bjork - Dexton – Zárate - 777666jason – Theo – Dobbo – Riser – Bré – SamJudd – WhoOdyssey
10: Drake – One Dance – Pete – Chez – paulgilb – FleetSeb – HarryEzra – danG – CianS – Jade - Suedehead2 – LewisGT – Midge
3: Pharrell Williams – Happy – Jafet - TS0301 – Addy - Ultra
0: Portugal. The Man - Feel It Still – gavindeejay
0: Ed Sheeran – Thinking Out Loud - SM351
0: Bryan Adams – Everything I Do (I Do It For You) – vibe
0: Nickelback – Rockstar – Mack
0: Celine Dion - Think Twice – Dannyboy
0: Ed Sheeran – Perfect – Jupiter
0: Adele – Hello – Sarah
Honey G – The Honey G Show – cqmerqn

So the two big point-scorers here were both long-running #1s which we were all sick to death of. Drake’s One Dance kept a ton of good songs off the top for the 15 weeks it was there – Ed only kept his own two songs off the top but is more annoyingly still in the Top 100. Pharell’s long-running ‘Happy’ also picks up a couple of points, and we get another barrage of zeroes.

Posted by: Bré 6th May 2018, 05:21 PM

I nearly said 'Feel It Still' but then looked it up and found its 20th week on the chart was still before it went top 10 yay for finally not flopping xo

Posted by: Jade 6th May 2018, 05:23 PM

Omg I initially put 'Happy' after the recent 'biggest hit of the decade' thread but then switched to 'One Dance', after thinking that people might flock to a song that spent lots of weeks at #1. Thought I'd go recent but completely forgot about 'Shape Of You's mammoth run ah well, only 1 point in it!

Honey G deffo deserved 20 weeks top 10 minimum tbh

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 6th May 2018, 05:24 PM

Honey G, legend

Posted by: Jüpiter 6th May 2018, 05:27 PM

Unfortunately Polyhex, which I'd usually use for chart runs, was down when I was answering that last question so I had to guess!

Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 6th May 2018, 05:32 PM

6. Name a song which spent at least 3 consecutive weeks in the same position (outside the Top 10)



19: Bebe Rexha – Meant to Be – Pete – Yorkie3 – paulgilb – Bjork – danG – CianS – Dexton – Zárate - 777666jason – Jade – Dobbo – Addy – Riser - Suedehead2 – Dannyboy – LewisGT – Ultra – Jupiter – WhoOdyssey – Sarah
4: Idina Menzel – Let It Go – gavindeejay - SM351 – Jahq – HarryEzra - Jafet
0: Ed Sheeran – Thinking Out Loud – vibe
0: Steps – 5,6,7,8 – Chez
0: Kungs – This Girl – FleetSeb
0: Adele – Set Fire to the Rain
0: Zac Efron & Zendaya – Rewrite the Stars – Theo
0: Future – Mask Off - TS0301
0: Hugh Jackman et al. – The Greatest Show – Bré
0: Rihanna – Te Amo – SamJudd
0: Vanessa Carlton – A Thousand Miles - Midge
PeteFromLeeds – cqmerqn

Okay so I will admit I came up with this question before Bebe spent three agonising (or fortunate, depending on your opinion of the song) weeks at #11. The only other point scorer is Frozen classic Let It Go, which did the same at #21. Everything else gets a big fat zero, including both Greatest Showman tracks and Future’s Mask Off, all of which I think would have got more points without Bebe.

Posted by: danG 6th May 2018, 05:35 PM

Bebe Rexha queen of #11

Posted by: Jade 6th May 2018, 05:36 PM

'Meant To Be' instantly came into my head due to the recency factor and a memorable near-miss, as it's terrible so I've been cheering on its #11 stalling I actually wasn't sure if its consecutive stall at #11 was 2 or 3 weeks, so I was very glad when the latter option was indeed the case when looking it up.

Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 6th May 2018, 05:46 PM

7. Name a Top 40 single which references the Lord



12: Drake – God’s Plan – Yorkie3 – gavindeejay - SM351 – Chez – Bjork – Jafet – Zárate - 777666jason – Theo – Jade - Suedehead2 – SamJudd – Ultra
5: Stormzy – Blinded By Your Grace – Pete – FleetSeb – danG – Riser – LewisGT - WhoOdyssey
5: George Harrison – My Sweet Lord – paulgilb – CianS – Dobbo – Addy – Dannyboy – Midge
1: Oasis – Lord Don’t Slow Me Down – Mack - TS0301
1: The Beach Boys – God Only Knows – Bré – Jupiter
0: Madonna – Like a Prayer – vibe
0: Justin Bieber – Beauty and a Beat – Jahq
0: P!nk – God Is a DJ – HarryEzra
0: Calvin Harris & HAIM – Pray to God
0: Various - Hallelujah - Sarah
Louisa Johnson – Best Behaviour – cqmerqn

GAHD’S PLAHN. Now I deliberately said ‘Lord’ instead of ‘God’ so everyone didn’t put Drake, and it has worked to an extent, even though he is the most guessed artist. Stormzy’s amazing worship track is the joint second most guessed track, alongside a George Harrison track I’d never heard of. Oasis and the Beach Boys get a point apiece, and once again we have zeroes a plenty, including Jahq trying to make some joke about Justin Bieber being the Lord.

(7 questions in and not even on Page 3, eek)

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 6th May 2018, 05:48 PM

Can't believe I didn't think of God's Plan! BFYGP2 is a banger though.

Posted by: Jade 6th May 2018, 05:49 PM

Lmao the first song to come into my head was actually Joan Osborne - 'One Of Us' but I knew no-one would put that so I had to think a lil harder. Then voila, Drake popped into my head. Yay, this has gone very well on the whole so far.

Can't believe I completely forgot about Stormzy

Posted by: 777666jason 6th May 2018, 05:50 PM

Doing well even with screw up 5 top answers so far

Posted by: danG 6th May 2018, 05:53 PM

damn I thought more people would go for Stormzy as that track says 'lord' a lot. I did think of 'God's Plan' also but the question said 'lord' not 'god'.

you've seriously never heard 'My Sweet Lord'? you'd probably like it.

Posted by: Bré 6th May 2018, 05:54 PM

Kinda proud to have not thought of Bebe Rexha ngl. Not so much to have not thought of 'God's Plan', that just didn't come to mind at all somehow. I did these answers in a bit of a rush last night, maybe should have spent a bit more time thinking about some of these

Posted by: Jüpiter 6th May 2018, 05:54 PM

Honestly couldnt think of ANY recent songs with God or Lord in the title (my first and unshakeable though was actually Green Light!), even God's Plan still in my head doesn't quite fit the bill.

Still feel like half these Drake songs, though long runners, are a little forgettable.

Posted by: Zárate 6th May 2018, 05:58 PM

GENUINELY surprised at Sales getting null points! I put it because it was so easy to type, and I assumed many ppl would do the same.

Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 6th May 2018, 05:58 PM

8.Name an artist who has achieved a #1 in the Albums chart but is yet to have a Top 40 single


9: Blossoms – gavindeejay – Bjork – HarryEzra – Dexton – Jade – Riser - Suedehead2 – LewisGT – Bré – WhoOdyssey
6: Ward Thomas – paulgilb – FleetSeb – CianS - 777666jason - TS0301 – Midge – Jupiter

0: Il Divo – Mack
0: Alfie Boe – Addy
0: Janet Jackson – Dannyboy
0: No Answer - Sarah
Beyoncé – cqmerqn

Another mixed bag here! Blossoms is the highest scorer here, spending a surprising 2 weeks at #1 with their last album before plummeting down the charts. They have scored themselves three Top 100 hits to date though, with 2 entering this week. Second is Ward Thomas, a surprising Albums #1 who I didn’t go for as I thought they would be too obscure. Royal Blood pick up a couple of points, as do The National (who I believe are the most recent additions to this group). Quite a few zeroes once again (sorry, I couldn’t really combine Alfie Boe with Ball & Boe )

Posted by: Jade 6th May 2018, 06:00 PM

Yessss!! It was between Blossoms and Ward Thomas for me but the former clinched it due to their new album putting them back in the minds of the masses. Woop.

I have 7/8 top answers so far I believe I'm definitely coming to flop with question 10 though I think

Posted by: Zárate 6th May 2018, 06:00 PM

Oh my Darwin, that was so obvious! And I’m streaming the Blossoms’ new album a lot!

Posted by: Jade 6th May 2018, 06:03 PM

Omg Royal Blood crossed my mind but I ruled them out because I wrongly thought 'Figure It Out' was a top 40 hit well I never!

Posted by: Bré 6th May 2018, 06:04 PM

Ayy I got one again. 'Charlemagne' really should have been a hit tho.

Posted by: HarryEzra 6th May 2018, 06:05 PM

I didn't consider Meant To Be and only went for Let It Go THIS IS WHAT I GET FOR GOING FOR IDINA MENZEL :/

Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 6th May 2018, 06:10 PM

9. Name a Top 40 single by someone who was born, raised or currently resides in Leeds



8: Kaiser Chiefs – Ruby – Yorkie3 – gavindeejay – paulgilb – FleetSeb – danG - Suedehead2 – Bré – Sarah - 777666jason
8: Mel B – I Want You Back – Jahq – Dexton – Jafet – Zárate – Jade – Dobbo – Addy – SamJudd - WhoOdyssey
5: Corinne Bailey Rae – Put Your Records On – Bjork – Theo - TS0301 – Riser – Ultra – Jupiter
3: Kaiser Chiefs – I Predict a Riot – Chez – HarryEzra – Mack - Midge
1: Tom Zanetti – You Want Me – Pete - LewisGT
1: Mel B – Wannabe - SM351 - CianS
0: Mel B – Feels So Good – vibe
0: Sigma – Changing – Dannyboy
Drake – cqmerqn

Now I was going to sing all of these amazing songs, but I’ve never heard this Mel B song in my life before I’m assuming it’s her biggest solo hit though, with so many people going for it. In joint first, however, is the Kaisers’ Ruby (ARUBERUBERUBERUBEHH!), and close behind is Corinne Bailey Rae’s Put Your Records on (GUHRRL, PUT YOW RECORDS OWHHN) and I Predict a Riot (IPREDICT ORIOT!) which I associate with the Kaisers much more than Ruby, interestingly enough. You Want Me picks up a point (OKAY DEN WATCH WHAT I SAY DEN) , as does Wannabe – and I’m too out of breath to do that one.

Posted by: Jade 6th May 2018, 06:13 PM

Ooh I didn't envisage Mel B as a (joint) top answer here at all for some reason. Yay!

Tom Zanetti :cheeseblock:

10. Name an artist who has only ever had one song in the Top 100



9: Lil Dicky – Pete – Jahq – danG – CianS – Dexton – Zárate – Dobbo – Riser - Suedehead2 – LewisGT
3: Gotye – FleetSeb – Bjork – HarryEzra – SamJudd
1: BlocBoy JB – Yorkie3 – gavindeejay
1: Rachel Platten – Mack - Theo

0: Honey G – Jupiter
0: Portugal. The Man – WhoOdyssey
Justin Bieber – cqmerqn

Lil Dicky is the most recent winner of this award, and if you didn’t go for him you were basically toast. Gotye limits the damage a little bit, with none of the rest of his amazing back catalogue doing anything ( ), and there are quite a few one pointers as well, which quite surprisingly include Los Del Rio and the Teletubbies The zeroes flood in again, this time including Mason Ramsey who debuted at #100 this week, and Honey G, who thankfully has never had a chart hit.

Posted by: Chez Wombat 6th May 2018, 06:49 PM

Well, Jesus that went terribly, I blame me not paying attention to the modern charts for missing literally half of these, especially whatever that Bebe Rexha song is, (Although I was sure Friday Chart Predictions, there was the hinting in the question and iTunes isn't meant to be relevant anymore Also, I Predict a Riot seems so much bigger than Ruby these days so I'm kinda surprised that was the top one).

Yessss!! It was between Blossoms and Ward Thomas for me but the former clinched it due to their new album putting them back in the minds of the masses. Woop.

I have 7/8 top answers so far I believe I'm definitely coming to flop with question 10 though I think

!!! No way, amazing thrilled to have been a winner, congrats to Bjork and Suedey also! Up to 2nd on the leaderboard, yay *.*

Thanks for doing this Pete! I am so much better at Family Fortunes than Pointless (because it relies more on logic than luck in the Buzzjack format and I don't seem to have much luck with the latter) so that always helps, enjoyable round anyway!

Posted by: danG 6th May 2018, 08:12 PM

so I was right in that prediction! congrats y'all.

Posted by: Bré 6th May 2018, 08:15 PM

What kind of slayage xo

Thanks for doing this Pete. It was a great set of questions (and a great result).

Posted by: Yorkie3 6th May 2018, 08:28 PM

Happy to finally do well in something! Thanks for hosting!

Posted by: Bjork 6th May 2018, 08:32 PM

Great
Questions were very well thought
Yes this one is far easier than pointless
Which is kinda unpredictable

Posted by: gavindeejay 6th May 2018, 08:35 PM

Thanks for hosting Pete

Posted by: Zárate 6th May 2018, 08:46 PM

These were the great questions, really fitting to family fortunes. It was very hard to predict the right question in many many cases, and there were not many runaway answers!

Tomorrow I’m putting up the Pointless round, I hope you all enjoy it!

Posted by: Riser 7th May 2018, 01:30 AM

This was such a good round!!! Great variety of questions and not too many landslides. I used this week's top 100 on the OCC site (with the chart runs etc.) to get most of my answers which was quite easy, so I'm thrilled to finish top 5 without that much effort.

Thanks Pete Congrats to Suedey, Jade and Bjork! (Oh and Jahq, I appreciate you also answering Charlie Puth for #3 <3)

Posted by: 777666jason 7th May 2018, 06:47 AM

Top 8 pretty good shame those 3 points I stupidly missed (read the whole question next time) would have put me 6th

my first instinct was also to go for Joan Osborne's One of Us, best God song ever but thought no one would know it. It's a genious song, What if God was one of us, just a stranger on the bus? lalala

with the Leeds question, my first instinct was Soft Cell - Tainted love, good I changed my mind
