I got 152/159. I missed:

Arctic Monkeys - One Point Perspective
Arctic Monkeys - Star Treatment
MIST - Game Changer
MoStack - What I Wanna (omg I was sure it was something like 'What I Want' or 'What I Need' and I tried every phrasing I could think of but not this drama.gif drama.gif I quite liked this song too)
The 1975 - Give Yourself A Try (ALSO THIS I kept trying things like 'Just Give Me A Try' drama.gif and I certainly like this song too but clearly it needs a more memorable title)
The Weeknd - Try Me
The Weeknd - Wasted Times (I did remember 2 non-'Call Out My Name' titles, but not the right ones lol)


Forget speeding up the charts: the real advantage of ACR is saving us from having to try and name all 25 tracks from 'Scorpion' :')

Thanks for creating this, I always enjoy these.

Edit: I must say I only got J. Cole - Photograph while trying to guess the 3rd Ed Sheeran song laugh.gif

140!

Got stuck with the urban ones (such as Kanye, The Weeknd, Post Malone and J. Cole album tracks).

153/159. The ones I missed:
Hangman (I thought it was 'How I Met My Ex' and I'd just got the wording wrong)
For You
Game Changer (I KNEW the chorus to the song, the title isn't in the chorus annoyingly mellow.gif )
Bed
Wasted Times
Dusk Till Dawn

Missed out most of the album tracks plus a load of 2017 songs I didn’t realise were still charting

Also missed Nicki Minaj - Bed somehow

Aside: I do wonder how many people actually got Zayn 'Let Me' by remembering it, rather than typing it in for either Hailee Steinfeld or Jorja Smith. Such a forgettable chart hit!

I got 134/159! Actually managed to get all of Drake & J. Cole's (Diplomatic Immunity took an age to think of and I only remember Photograph because it blows tongue.gif), but instead I tripped up on much more obvious ones like Symphony, Finders Keepers & Lullaby. Until I saw the answers I completely forgot what Ruti even was biggrin.gif

Yep! There's no way I was going to remember that.

I completely forgot about 'Supermarket Flowers' taking off a bit this year, that one Ed song was bugging me so much!
