QUESTION ONE

Name a song from 2021 that has gone straight to A-List in it’s first week on Radio 1’s weekly playlist



CORRECT ANSWERS

Adele - Easy On Me
Ansel, Bjork, BrΓ©, chrissmith276, dandy*, dj_tim_e, Dobbo., Jade, jimwatts, JulianT, King Rollo, Lee_J11, LewisGT, LiamSime, MangΓΈ, n4yr, rio309, Riser, StoneDragon, vibe, Viper* (20 Points)

Ed Sheeran - Bad Habits
CJK, Cow Cow, dan:G, Hadji, paulgilb, PeteFromLeeds, xajnipi (6 Points)

NO POINTS

Central Cee - Obsessed with You
~1^∞ (0 Points)

CJ - Whoopty
Mack. (0 Points)

Starting off here with a rather landslide answer in the current UK #1 single by Adele. Bad Habits was the only other answer given that scored any points. Our resident chart member MangΓΈ should be able to say with ease whether or not Central Cee or CJ were instant A-Listers in their opening week on Radio 1.

NO POINTS

Money, Money, Money
Mack. (0 Points)

ABBA have been a hot talking point in late 2021 thanks to their resurgence, and looking back at their discography, it is Dancing Queen that is remembered fondly the most it seems. Waterloo and Mamma Mia are also answers that score points in this round, but it wasn't to be again for Mack. who scored 0 points with Money, Money, Money.
'Dancing Queen' is their signature song so I had to go for that! I can see cases for their Eurovision winner and title of a very famous musical/movie series (+ MΓ₯neskin song xox) too
Boo thought mamma mia was abba’s most popular song :o
Think mack was playing pointless πŸ˜…

Red Hot Chili Peppers – Californication
Jade (0 Points)

California seems to be the most thought of US State when it comes to album titles with states in them. Joint first are albums from Eagles and London Grammar. A wide variety of answers given to this question, but lots of mentions of California within the titles!
I know Californication technically doesn't have the word 'California' in it but my mind just goes straight to the Red Hot Chili Peppers when I see any mention of it :rofl: and it doesn't matter if it's technically wrong in Family Fortunes :kink: embarrassed that I forgot about London Grammar as I have that on vinyl and everything :blush: thank u, next x
Californian Soil was my first thought, but I wasn't sure if it counted with the "n" on the end. I suppose it still has "California" in the title so should have just gone with it!
Damn, I initially put dancing Queen for question 2 then changed to Mamma Mia as I thought it would be more popular!

This question was probably the most random of them all, I didn't know what would come from it, but there were only really a small amount of correct answers that anyone should be giving, that said, a couple of the answers given were not pinned threads in the UK Chart forum. :kink:

CORRECT ANSWERS

NO POINTS

ABBA – SOS
CJK (0 Points)

Pink – U + Ur Hand

Rita Ora feat. Tinie Tempah – RIP
dandy* (0 Points)


I guess I should have realised giving an example of what an acronym was that people's minds would immediately take them back some 11 years ago to a Top 10 hit by Usher! I didn't think the example of OMG was an obvious one, but clearly I just gave you all the most pointworthy answer! Cardi B, Dua Lipa and rather surprisingly Village People all score points. Unfortunately my explanation of an anagram wasn't quite understood by Mack.'s answer.
