The thing is that I'd be sooooo good on so many acts but if I ever went on you could guarantee it would be some random 70s act that I don't know

Trying the one from 16th November:

Round 1 - 27 - didn't know... 1974, The Ventures, KC & the Sunshine Band

Round 2 - 36 - didn't know... Delilah

3 in 10... EASY.

Maybe I should start listening again on BBC Sounds as I can rarely hear it live. With the years, there is often a song in there that I can pinpoint straight away. Other times, a song will trigger a memory. In each case, it is sometimes an exact year but it might just be a more vague period. One year out happens quite a lot! Occasionally, none of them will be much help, particularly if they are all by acts with a long chart career.

as an RAF child we were always moving so every place we lived is ingrained with memories of what music I was loving at that time, so I have a very long series of fixed-points through to around 1985 so always get those right. We moved to Poole in 1984 and that stopped when we stopped moving, so don't have so much in the way of joggers except holidays. Much harder!

Round 1: 18 (didn't get: Mud, James Bond theme, Prince/Blur/Good Charlotte song title - had a complete mind blank then kicked myself, The Coral)
Round 2: 36 (didn't get: Alvin Stardust)
Three-in-Ten: 3 (Heart Skips A Beat, Dance With Me Tonight, Please Don't Let Me Go were the ones that came to mind)

Made up for that R1 dip by equalling my PB for R2 - noooo at the final question preventing a full house on that one laugh.gif

Round 1 - 12
Round 2 - 36 (didn't get Jennifer Hudson)

So round 1 seemed to be much more difficult for both of us and the woman who only scored 3 points. I wonder if I'll score as much as 36 again.

3 in 10 - I only thought of Troublemaker

Isn't it strange how your brain associates things.. I got the year spot on, but only because I associate Black Eyed Peas as being the only challengers to come close to deny Lady Gaga her crown of being 2009's chart force.

I have a pretty encyclopaedic knowledge of 2000s Now albums so that came in handy today laugh.gif

I was so hoping that a certain BJSC entry of yours was going to come up when Propellerheads were mentioned, alas sleep.gif

Oh wow an exact snap for Round 2 *.* </3 I actually know the names of his #1 and #2 singles but had absolutely no idea on the ones mentioned. I think I first knew of that artist's existence because my grandma once went to look at a house formerly owned by them years earlier when she was planning to relocate laugh.gif

^ oh wow we all really smashed yesterday's Round 2 *.*

Round 1: 15 (didn't get: Suede - oooops, 1980 - one year out!!, Silver Bullet Band, Hawkwind)
Round 2: 24 (didn't get: Walker Brothers - thought it sounded like the Mamas & Papas, 1986 - one year out again!!, The Move)
Three-in-Ten: 3 (A Little Time, Perfect 10, Rotterdam)

Not my best day, tanked by both bonus categories drama.gif and one year out x2 was unfortunate </3

Round 1: 30 (didn't getSuede, Alicia Keys)
Round 2 : 36 (didn't get 1986, I put 1987)

3 in 10 - I think I would have named three songs by them but the man saying three so quickly distracted me.

I'm annoyed I missed a maximum score by getting a year from the 1980s wrong. I'm more certain of years from that decade than the 90s onwards.

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

X-Ray Spex people should have got from Buzzjack the other month if they were in that semi (I do my best to help! laugh.gif ). I was pleased to see Cerrone Supernature made the itunes chart a couple of weeks back, but I didn't know why till I saw the advert the other day. Ignored for 43 years, one BJSC final and suddenly everyone wants it. I swear the media is following Buzzjack for tips....! laugh.gif
