April 22, 20187 yr Thanks for running this Midge and congratulations to Addy! Very happy with Iron Maiden getting me a pointless, was going to go with “Innuendo” by Queen (also from 1991) but glad I didn't in the end! “Block Rockin' Beats” by the Chemical Brothers would have been another possible answer, I was sure someone was going to go for that though.
April 22, 20187 yr ROUND 4 Name any world capital city to be featured in the title of a UK Top 75 hit. (Countries must be recognised by the UN) Please note: I would not have accepted titles with 'Male' in it for Malé (capital of Maldives) :P ARE YOU READY :o I READ THE QUESTION WRONG I DIDNT SEE UK TOP 75 :cry: Boycotting these results x
April 22, 20187 yr Wow, wasn't expecting a second place. I was one off a pointless answer so many times! That was great fun, Thanks Midge!
April 22, 20187 yr I came top 5 :o Perhaps that was the sheer number of points available, but that's still a result, hopefully I won't lose my lead on the scoreboard by too much. I can't believe other people said The White Stripes, you guys remember Icky Thump? :mellow: :') Thanks for hosting, Midge!
April 22, 20187 yr I can't believe other people said The White Stripes, you guys remember Icky Thump? Yep, I remember it almost getting to number 1 - none of their other hits, even the ubiquitous “Seven Nation Army” had gone Top 5 so I was hoping others dismissed them. Damn you for having a similar train of thought to me. :P Edited April 22, 20187 yr by Doctor Blind
