I get a cheer.gif as I got the lot today - I had to guess the name of the band in round one but it sounded like a Simon fave so I had a go and it was smile.gif

I got 33 on that round laugh.gif

Round 1: 27 (didn't get: 1993 - 1 year out again laugh.gif, The Corrs, Matt Bianco, Steeleye Span)
Round 2: 27 (didn't get: Chairman of the Board, A Taste of Honey
Three-in-Ten: 3 (Knowing Me Knowing You, The Winner Takes It All, Dancing Queen)

I summoned The Mamas and the Papas today laugh.gif

the A Taste of Honey miss was slightly annoying as I have heard that song a couple of times recently but just couldn't recall the artist

I got the year wrong too round 1, but the very golden oldies elsewhere were easy for me, well done on the 60's track - that band have an amazing back catalogue if you havent heard them: think template for Abba.

That one youve heard recently is easier for me as the act name is also the name of a song - one The Beatles covered, I think!

doing well there! My mate went to see the act singing your mum's fave last week on their (prob) final tour. Mike Batt wrote and produced that one and it topped my charts the same year he was still a Womble hitmaker and topped my chart as a solo act! laugh.gif

Ooh will make sure to check that out! I think 'Gaudete' is the only one I know by them.

I know a few songs by them and 'California Dreamin' is a big favourite but I need to venture further!

Oh yes that song is on their debut, definitely using that association going forward to help me remember laugh.gif

Round 1 : 30 Didn't get Corrs, Matt Bianco, Steeleye Span
Round 2 : 27 Didn't get Chairmen Of The Board, A Taste Of Honey

I thought of Fiddler's Dram instead of Steeleye Span. I was getting Day Trip To Bangor mixed up with All Around My Hat, an easy mistake to make.

The 3 in 10 was an easy one today.

good marks there! The first contestant got 3 points and she was insecure she'd even get that, but she took it with a laugh which is the right thing to do! smile.gif Mind does go blank under pressure though! ohmy.gif

I got the year wrong round 2 too (and I have no excuse whatsoever it was a decade I know!), and the last question round one laugh.gif

Round 1: 33 (didn't get: The Chi-Lites) - so hoped I'd be on to a full house today but that final bonus ruined it cry.gif
Round 2: 33 (didn't get: Neighbours song 'Suddenly', 1972 - two years out)
Three-in-Ten: 3 (If You Had My Love, Love Don't Cost A Thing, Play)

3s aplenty ohmy.gif very happy with today's across-the-board performance! wub.gif

I've been on Popmaster twice, once when I was 19, and again in 2012. I didn't win either time, but still won a CD case and a "One Year Out" t-shirt respectively. One of the questions I got wrong was to complete the title of the Ultravox song "Reap The Wild...". I answered "Oats", which had Ken Bruce in stitches (the actual answer was "wind"). Also failed to recognise Jimmy Nail's "Ain't No Doubt", which is now forever etched in my mind. I've tried applying for it a few more times over the years since then with no luck, but would love a chance to try again just to win.

well done on going on! winning is just a bonus really but loved the Reap The Wild Oats! laugh.gif Your Jimmy Nail is my Genesis Invisible Touch. DJ Mike Read asked me the question (my first one) and I stood there on the Radio 1 roadshow mouth open like a goldfish as the crowd shouted at me. "You can't see me" said Mike as he touched my shoulder. I thought he'd gone mad till the answer dawned on me. And he took the piss out of me wearing a sweater on a hot sunny day laugh.gif
