play along and tell us how you did. would be interesting to see which recent top 40 hits are already forgotten amongst buzzjackers and which have stayed in our collective memory whether it's thanks to us loving said songs or just them being in near enough every chart of the year *coughHappyAllOfMeRatherBecough* I'll play too although I have the advantage of having made the quiz

First one of these I've played in a while!
A few took me a little moment to remember (looking at The Neon Brotherhood, The Janoskians and R3hab in particular) but ended up with 295/296. I don't take fault for missing the last one as you spelled Resonance incorrectly when making the quiz

284/296! Counting Resonance there cause it was spelt wrong
I failed to get Joel Compass, Ellie Goulding (Beating Heart), Skepta, Starship, The Killers (Mr. Brightside), Lethal Bizzle (The Drop), The Human League, The Irish Brigade, The Neon Brotherhood, The Weather Girls, The Kooks (Around Town) and Wilkinson (Dirty Love). |

Had been looking forward to this for ages
 290/296, counting Resonance as well as I certainly knew it! Could not for the life of me remember the titles of Chase & Status, Kaiser Chiefs, Rik Mayall or The Irish Brigade, or anything about the existence of Kasabian and Lil Wayne's songs

288, I'm not a quick typer so if I took too long on one I moved on and only had a little extra time to spare. Other than the misspelling of one I knew the ones I genuinely forgot/had no idea were:
Make U Bounce, Better Man, Hope Ain't A Bad Thing, Tonight (We Live Forever), Tell Her, Midnight Memories and Pills N Potions This post has been edited by Dobbo: Nov 13 2014, 07:21 PM |

I got 212, I got distracted and wasted a minute or two on the timer, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
So I won't bore you with listing EVERY song I missed but I forgot about Kasabian's song unusually which I'm really sad about. And the two best Ed Sheeran songs on the list (Sing & I See Fire) I somehow missed, I forgot about Rihanna, the names of DJ Fresh's hits completely went blank for me, and I'd forgotten about Flo Rida's song completely. |

Well then I got a rather terrible 252/296
Mostly because of way too many dance hits that I'd only heard once or twice and have little memory of, so all of those artists seemed to have one or two that I couldn't remember (so I did miss Unmissable ) And yes I 'got' Resonance as well

oops at the ------Resonance mis-spelling. I've corrected that now anyway.
Got the whole lot but I'll never know if that's due to me being that good or because I typed the song titles out

163. Don't feel too bad about those missing other than err.. not noticing three One Direction tracks at the bottom of the second column.
QUOTE(▬Mart!n▬ @ Nov 13 2014, 07:02 PM)  This reminds me for the Buzzjack track of 2014, the yearly game, calling J▲hq... I thought you were on about '#1 of the year' for a moment (consider that handled when the last chart show of the year comes around) but now I realise you're on about the other one I ran last year right? Can get to it tonight possibly. |

Got 185/296
Surprised I got that many tbf, a lot of artists I had no idea had charted/never heard off plus it took ages to scroll down to the bottom on my phone so should have got a few more (not over 200 mind!) |

247/296. Yeah... not too stellar of a job. Not really a fast typer and I had to move down a lot, plus I kept forgetting what was in the parentheses...
And I didn't know if "Good Girls" counted because it was a promo single Some of these songs are old as f*ck |

222, got fairly close to the end but there were a few I couldn't recall the titles of (such as the MAD tracks, the Bakermat one also got me, as did Joel Compass, Kaiser Chiefs and Dapper Laughs. The Justin Timberlake one was there somewhere in my mind but I just couldn't recall what the name of it was).
