Got them ALL with 6:31 left but struggled the most with Mastermind - War and Skepta - Mains - in fact I forgot the latter album existed and was wondering when they made the top 40 this year laugh.gif

Got them all with 9:09 remaining!

Once again it was one of the Ed Sheeran songs that took me the longest to get, this time Beautiful People - I managed to get all of the others pretty quickly apart from J Hus' 'Play Play', which I remembered was a repeated word but it took me a minute to remember which word it was.

Btw I didn't know that Let Me Know was the name of an artist kink.gif

139/169, a slightly better percentage for me than last time.

Aside from songs that only charted for 1-2 weeks, I missed Ladbroke Grove (oops!), Gangsta, Ei8ht Mile, Into The Unknown (Frozen II didn't even cross my mind, thought it was a Christmas song, oop!), and Audacity. I probably should've remembered Where We're Going, and I forgot Ode To Joy again laugh.gif

138/169. Didn't remember these:

Aitch - 30
B Young - Wine
Becky Hill - Heaven On My Mind (I remembered the 'heaven' part but not the full title yet, though I wasn't sure it was this because I didn't remember it debuting in the top 40 [I see it was #38])
Beth Porch - You Taught Me What Love Is
Chris Brown - Go Crazy (lol, forgot it would be his current hit, though it's fitting because I still can't remember anything within the song)
D-Block Europe - Free 22
D-Block Europe - No Cellular Site
Da Beatfreakz - Self-Obsessed
DigDat - Ei8ht Mile
Drake - Pain 1993 ('Not You Too (feat. Chris Brown)' is a much more memorable title)
Eminem - Darkness
Fredo - Netflix & Chill (this feels like quite long ago)
Fredo - Scorpion
Gerry Cinnamon - Where We're Going
Idina Menzel - Into The Unknown
J Hus - Big Conspiracy
J Hus - Play Play
J Hus - Repeat
KSI - Cap
KSI - Killa Killa
KSI - Wake Up Call
Lil Uzi Vert - Baby Pluto
M24 - London
Mastermind - War
Matt Lucas - Thank You Baked Potato
Nafe Smallz - Part Of The Plan
Octavian - Papi Chulo
Skepta - Mains
Skepta - Waze
Stormzy - Still Disappointed (I remembered it starting with 'St' but was thinking something like 'Stop Talking' lol)
Tobi & Manny - Destined For Greatness

Got 127! I struggled with some of the hits that peaked in 2019 but were still in the top 40 come 2020 (namely Highest in the Room, Beautiful People and Hold Me While You Wait) none of which are the artists best known from 2019. bar those all the rest were those one week hits from artists you'll rarely hear from again outside that one week!

basically Rush's list above!

BLACKPINK - How You Like That (I knew it existed from its chart play last week but what it was called went straight over my head)

Fredo - Scorpion
J Hus - Big Conspiracy
KSI ft. Offset - Cap
Lil Uzi Vert - Baby Pluto
Tory Lanez & Chris Brown - The Take
(Probably best I forgot this one)

I actually got this one accidentally because one of the Ed Sheeran songs I guessed was 'Take Me Back To London' laugh.gif

Q3 update is here (a week late, but including this Friday's new entries) - there are now 233 tracks unless I've forgotten to add anything. as ever you have 20 minutes on the clock to name as many as possible.

https://www.sporcle.com/games/Thermometer1/...-2020-q3-update

I managed all of them except for MGK's 2nd top 40 hit ironically titled Forget Me Too, I thought it was called Not You Too or Not Me Too for some reason

171/233

low-key impressed with that laugh.gif would've been 172 but I didn't put in an accent for senorita. and I remembered billions but had zero idea it was formatted like that haha & ik Gerry Cinnamon's was something like that but couldn't quite get it. Tbh there's only about 10 others I probs should've got, the rest I have zero blanks on what they're even like laugh.gif

I got 229/233

The one's I couldn't remember were

D-Block Europe - Free 22
D-Block Europe - Plain Jane
Justin Bieber - Forever
Lil Uzi Vert - Baby Pluto

I remembered that the Bieber song featured Post Malone but never would have remembered the title of the song in a million years. I should have got the D-Block Europe songs really.

(late I know but) 219/233 which I'll take! Notable ones I missed are:

Ed Sheeran - South of the Border (completely forgot this was a thing)
DigDat ft. Aitch - E8ght Mile (probably one of the most forgettable Top 10s of the year)
Fredo - Scorpion (I wrote 'Spiders' so I was on the right track at least!)
Mustard - Ballin (I can remember this one really well but couldn't bring the title to mind)

180 this time - think I missed proportionally more than I did last time! Mainly the rap one week wonders and songs that were released before 2020. Most notable omission probably was Halsey - you should be sad. I also didn't get Katy Perry - Daisies but I completely forgot it went top 40! I kept trying Never Really Over and Smile
