hyped!

01 Roxette - Listen To Your Heart
Correct: Lotti, Tim, Regina, n4yr, The Controller, Rogue, Jimmy Jam, Robot, Riser, Atonement
Wrong: Ultraviolence1989 (Alanis Morrisette or ABBA?), HarryEzra (Christina Aguilera - Genie In A Bottle), Dobbo (Alyssa Reid - Alone Again), Jahq (something from a movie)

So the first song is the 1989 classic power ballad from Roxette! A fair amount of right answers for this, but maybe not as much as I thought... Dobbo makes a fairly good guess, I guess they're nto a million miles apart.

Posted by: princess_lotti 14th June 2016, 06:16 PM

yas a good start

Posted by: Liаm 14th June 2016, 06:17 PM

02 Little Mix - Love Me Like You
Correct: Lotti, Tim, Regina, Ultraviolence1989, Jade, n4yr, HarryEzra, The Controller, mdh, Dobbo, Jahq, Rogue, Jimmy Jam, FM11, Robot, Riser
Wrong: Iz (Stooshe - Black Heart), Atonement (Madonna)

Nearly a full house for the biggest girlband of the moment with the 2nd single from their amazing 3rd album Get Weird. Iz's guess isn't too far off though as Love Me Like You is kind of a carbon copy

Posted by: *Tim 14th June 2016, 06:17 PM

*.* slaying so far

Posted by: Liаm 14th June 2016, 06:18 PM

03 Sia - Move Your Body
Correct: Lotti, Tim, Regina, Ultraviolence1989, n4yr, Rogue
Wrong: Dobbo (Jessie J - Wild), Jahq (feeling Eurovision vibes but could be totally off…), Jimmy Jam (Jennifer Lopez - Ain’t Your Mama), Atonement (Daft Punk)

An ESSENTIAL song from Sia's latest album, so if you haven't heard it make sure you do <3 <3 I can't hear any of the wrong guesses myself really

Posted by: Regina 14th June 2016, 06:18 PM

Slaying, all gonna go tits up now though.

Posted by: princess_lotti 14th June 2016, 06:18 PM

iz going for stooshe tho *.* the relevancy

Posted by: Dobbo 14th June 2016, 06:18 PM

Ahh sounded just like Wild to me

Posted by: princess_lotti 14th June 2016, 06:19 PM

o9mg i'm slaying so hard atm

Posted by: Jade 14th June 2016, 06:19 PM

Ooh yay at getting Little Mix

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 14th June 2016, 06:21 PM

Love me like you and move your body 💖💖

04 Jess Glynne - Take Me Home
Correct: Lotti, Tim, Ultraviolence1989, Jade, n4yr, The Controller, Dobbo, Jahq, Rogue, FM11, Robot, Riser
Wrong: Ricki-Lee - Mirage (HarryEzra), Jimmy Jam (The Fray - How To Save A Life), Atonement (Sam Smith - I’m Not The Only One)

Tim's fave Jess Glyne xoxox Take Me Home is about her best song I think, apart from Rather Be whcih is pretty untouchable. I can kind of hear Sam Smith of the guesses but that cretin has no palce in this quiz

Posted by: *Tim 14th June 2016, 06:24 PM

I felt so dirty filling out that song

Posted by: princess_lotti 14th June 2016, 06:25 PM

Posted by: Liаm 14th June 2016, 06:25 PM

05 Kate Bush - Cloudbusting
Correct: Rogue
Wrong: Lotti (Kelly Clarkson), Dobbo (David Bowie - Let’s Dance), Riser (Jordin Sparks - Battlefield)

Only one correct guess for this amazing song This is one of Kate's many well known songs, although it does pale in comparison to some of her biggest htis in recognition terms.

Posted by: Liаm 14th June 2016, 06:27 PM

06 Ed Sheeran - I See Fire
Correct: Lotti, Tim, Regina, Ultraviolence1989, n4yr, The Controller, mdh, Dobbo, Jahq, Jimmy Jam, FM11, Riser, Iz
Wrong: Jade (Adele - Hometown Glory), HarryEzra (Listen To Your Heart)

A fairly popualr recent film song by on of the world's biggest artists means a lot of correct answers! This is his best song for sure for me. Harry gets the wrong answer but it was the right answer for #1

07 Carrie Underwood - Cowboy Casanova
Correct: Tim, Regina, Jade, n4yr, HarryEzra, The Controller, Jimmy Jam, Riser
Half point: Jahq (Carrie Underwood - Before He Cheats), Rogue, Atonement (Carrie Underwood)
Wrong: Ultraviolence1989 (Paramore), Lotti (Kelly Clarkson), Dobbo (Diana Ross - Chain Reaction)

A potneitlaly kind of obvious one if you know me, even ifyou didn't know the song because I do love Carrie Lotti and UV flopping tho

Posted by: Liаm 14th June 2016, 06:29 PM

08 Foxes - Cruel
Correct: Lotti, Tim, Ultraviolence1989, n4yr, HarryEzra, Rogue, Jimmy Jam, FM11
Wrong: Regina (All Saints), Riser (All Saints - Red Flag), Dobbo (Gwen Stefani - Rich Girl (Urban Mix))

A fair few got this one, which was a bit of a surprise but it was the clear highlgiht of her 2016 album. All Saints isn't too bad a guess

09 Ricky Martin - Livin’ La Vida Loca
Correct: Lotti, Tim, Regina, Ultraviolence1989, Jade, n4yr, HarryEzra, The Controller, mdh, Dobbo, Jahq, Rogue, Jimmy Jam, FM11, Robot, Riser, Atonement

A near full house for a classic song that is always very recognisable! This is a classic that everyone should know *.*

Posted by: Mdh 14th June 2016, 06:30 PM

Slaying as I only answered 6 questions

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 14th June 2016, 06:30 PM

I see fire and cruel *.*

Oops at not getting Carrie

Posted by: princess_lotti 14th June 2016, 06:31 PM

shrek relevancy *.*

for every song i didnt know i just guessed kelly clarkson :')

Posted by: J▲hq 14th June 2016, 06:31 PM

Sia for Australian Eurovision representative 2017 :')

Posted by: Liаm 14th June 2016, 06:31 PM

10 Kelly Clarkson - Cry
Correct: Regina, n4yr, HarryEzra, Jahq, Jimmy Jam, Robot, Riser
Half point: Lotti, Ultraviolence1989 (Kelly Clarkson)
Wrong: Dobbo (Stereophonics - Handbags & Gladrags), Atonement (Robbie Williams - Sexed Up)

As with Carrie, a guess for Kelly can't go amiss as she is one of my faves This grabs lotti a half point thanks to her trick of guessing Kelly to every question without a right answer

11 Rogue Traders - Voodoo Child
Correct: Jade, n4yr, The Controller, Dobbo, Rogue, Jimmy Jam, FM11, Robot, Riser, Iz
Wrong: Lotti (Kelly Clarkson), HarryEzra (Charlotte Church - Crazy Chick), Jahq (some dance song from the 00s)

This TUNE deserves a full house tbh. This never ever gets old and that riff is just iconic, maybe a longer sample would have got people to guess it?

Posted by: princess_lotti 14th June 2016, 06:32 PM

omg! yaas that half point

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 14th June 2016, 06:33 PM

Damn Cry was one of the four Jelly tracks I was between

Posted by: Liаm 14th June 2016, 06:33 PM

12 Tove Lo - Thousand Miles

Correct: n4yr, Robot
Wrong: Lotti (Kelly Clarkson), HarryEzra (Keri Hilson - Lose Control), Riser (Rihanna - California King Bed)
No answer: Tim, Regina, Ultraviolence1989, Jade, The Controller, mdh, Dobbo, Jahq, Jimmy Jam, FM11

This is second only to #5 for least answers, as only two of you get this. It was an album track from an album that only got top 20, I guess for Tove most of you stick to the singles.

13 Ellie Goulding - Lights
Correct: Lotti,Tim, Ultraviolence1989, Jade, n4yr, HarryEzra, mdh, Dobbo, Jahq, Rogue, FM11, Robot, Riser, Iz, Atonement

A very good showing for Ellie, as this is one of her worst performing singles in the UK despite being a US smash. Regardless, it remains her best.

Posted by: princess_lotti 14th June 2016, 06:35 PM

yeah not surprised I didn't get that Tove one

Posted by: Dobbo 14th June 2016, 06:36 PM

Not too bad so far!

Posted by: Liаm 14th June 2016, 06:36 PM

14 Melanie Martinez - Pity Party
Correct: Lotti, Tim, Ultraviolence1989, Jade, n4yr, mdh, Rogue
Wrong: HarryEzra (4Minute - Hate), Dobbo (Marilyn Manson - Personal Jesus), Jimmy Jam (Sia - Elastic Heart), Riser (Fifth Harmony - All My Head (Flex))

Only a few of you guessing this, shame on you Queen of misery and awful childhoods Melanie samples a Lesley Gore classic for this, I guess I can hear Elastic Heart though.

15 Selena Gomez - Hands To Myself
Correct: Lotti, Tim, Ultraviolence1989, Jade, n4yr, HarryEzra, mdh, Dobbo, Jahq, Rogue, Jimmy Jam, Robot, FM11, Riser

A decent showing for Selena, as this was a recent fair sized hit! It is quite generic but the recency effect will help and it is a tune everyone should know.

Posted by: princess_lotti 14th June 2016, 06:38 PM

YAAAS

Posted by: Dobbo 14th June 2016, 06:38 PM

Marilyn Manson to Melanie Martinez double M's at least

Posted by: Liаm 14th June 2016, 06:39 PM

16 Margaret - Cool Me Down
Correct: Lotti, Ultraviolence1989, Regina, n4yr, Dobbo, Jahq, Robot, Iz
Wrong: Tim, The Controller (Maroon 5 - One More Night), mdh (Ace Of Base - All That She Wants), Jimmy Jam (Fifth Harmony - All In My Head (Flex)), Riser (DNCE - Toothbrush)

Another recent hit, this time a Eurovision reject, which lost to that Michal Szpak thing :/ This is exactly what Rihanna should be releasing for a pop smash although Work did well enough anyway ofc. One More Night especially is a very good guess here though!

17 Demi Lovato - Stone Cold
Correct: Lotti, Tim, Ultraviolence1989, Jahq, Rogue, FM11, Riser
Wrong: Regina, Jimmy Jam (Adele - Hello), n4yr (Christina Perri), HarryEzra (Christina Perri - A Thousand Years), Dobbo (The Veronicas - You Ruin Me)


This proved a confusing one for many, I can kind of see where all the guesses are coming from Without Demi's soulful vocals this could be passed off as any old piano insturmtnal

Posted by: Jade 14th June 2016, 06:40 PM

Yasss at Ricky Martin

Posted by: Liаm 14th June 2016, 06:43 PM

18 Cilla Black - Anyone Who Had A Heart
Correct: Jade, The Controller, Robot, Atonement
Wrong: Lotti (Kelly Clarkson), HarryEzra (Miley Cyrus - FU), Riser (Grace - Hell Of A Girl)

Only 4 guesses here for by far the oldest song here! Anja Nissen did a rendition in 2015 which was a minor Aus hit, but most people will know of Cilla's 60s classic which was hte biggest selling female song of the 60s here.

19 Jonas Brothers - Burnin’ Up

Correct: n4yr, Jahq, FM11
Wrong: Lotti (Kelly Clarkson), Dobbo (Chumbawumba - Tubthumpin’), Riser (The Veronicas - Take Me To The Floor)
No answer: Tim, Regina, Ultraviolence1989), Jade, HarryEzra, The Controller, mdh, Rogue, Jimmy Jam

This also onyl got a few guesses - but is more recent as it's from 2008! This is the best Jo Bros song for me, sucha tune.

20 Rihanna - Needed Me
Correct: Lotti, Tim, Jade, n4yr, Jahq, Rogue, Riser, Atonement
Wrong: Dobbo (The Weeknd - Often)

The final song is from Rihanna's "Beyonce'd" (kind of) album Anti, a recent US R&B single too. Often is a very good guess, the insturmental for this is one that I think would be a bit hard to guess

Posted by: Jade 14th June 2016, 06:46 PM

I remember you playing a cover of 'Anyone Who Had a Heart' on plug/dub and thought it might be that version. But I couldn't for the life of me remember who covered it so just went with the original. Glad it was right!!

Posted by: Atonement 15th June 2016, 10:21 AM

oops I definitely should've recognized 'I See Fire' (probably his best) and 'Love Me Like You'.

Most of the other songs I didn't know so I can't be mad at not getting them.

Posted by: Jade 15th June 2016, 01:36 PM

I'm not on the leaderboard LiLi

Well done N4yr anyway! and thanks for doing this, was so fun!

Posted by: *Tim 15th June 2016, 01:38 PM

PoorJade flopped so hard she fell off the leaderboard

Posted by: Iz~ 15th June 2016, 01:43 PM

I went over and over with Black Heart and that clip for #2, they sounded identical! Some of those are songs I know but haven't listened to for ages so that's fair but I'm not sure how I missed Ricky Martin.

Anyway, this was a good warmup to get back into NMTBJs as I haven't done any for a while, I get better as more are done.

Posted by: Liаm 15th June 2016, 01:49 PM

Scoreboard sorted now, sorry I was in a bit of a rush, put ties in too as technically there's not really a way to break ties here :lol

Haha no worries Liam, thanks for updating it! Happy enough with top 10.
