Zarate I hate you :lol:

Zarate I hate you :lol:

Imagine what I felt when I received your answers. :lol:

This was just a case of putting down the first thing that came into my head. Well... damn. I thought that question would have way less answers than it actually did have, I shouldn't underestimate the vans out there I guess :o

I'm not too confident with the next question as I don't part take in the Buzzjack song contest

Train still was most popular but not as high as I thought shows too many clever clogs in here feel dumb for missing all the possible vans :lol:

I have never even looked at BJSC until today and just chose the first answer I found so expecting big points :P

I'm not too confident with the next question as I don't part take in the Buzzjack song contest

 

Me neither I spent ages on these ones fingers crossed i didn't mix up the contests

the "Van" never occurred to me, even now reading the answers I was like, why people submitted Armand Van Helden? :D I thought "Helden" was some vehicle ;) ;)

 

surprised I got a pointless with Motorcycle, who released of my fav dance songs ever

 

Oh okay :( I thought that was pretty smart rip

4. Name a Buzzjack Song Contest winner song which went top-100 in the official singles charts. Only the main contest winners count; spin-offs, best ofs etc. don’t count.

 

Here we are with one of the most popular Buzzjack activity allowing us to explore the music and compete a bit between ourselves! :D I wish I had enough time on the constant basis to come back.

No one went with the biggest hits / names out there, Adele (Live version of 'Someone like You' indeed entered it once! :o with the current rules it'd be impossible to enter), Katy Perry and Ellie Goulding receiving 0 votes. No one went with 'Run Boy Run', my own entry, too, as well as with 'The Show' by Lenka.

 

Despite quite a big varitety not that many pointless answers. Special shout out to Bray who entered 'Tik Tok', which was actually labeled as 'Dolla' in the contest (crafty loophole!), I didn't even include it to the list of the right answers initially. I also overlooked the 1995 #37 hit 'Relax' by Crystal Waters which was entered lately by JakeWild!

 

Alessia Cara was from one of the spin-offs which I didn't count, and 'Euphoria' was an actual Eurovision Song Contest winner.

No way :lol:

Run Boy Run is amazing though, would have gone for that if I had known it was a winner!

I’m not overly happy with how this is going for me at the moment. :(

I should've known that Sam would go for Lana as well :lol: it was between her and Agnes (just because I re-sent the latter lol), so good to know I would've got 3 either way. Can I start picking up now please x

Hmmm double bluff not working that time never mind.

dam it thought thought no one would pick VV Brown

Happy with that as I don't play BJSC.

ffs I need to read the questions properly lol.

*prepare for a load of pointless answers for the next one*

Argh that best of thread everyone went off the alphabeat song fast grrrrrr

 

5. Name a single by a male group which reached the #1 since 2005 till now. N.B. That group must consist of 3 or more people, must only consist of males and the group must not perform on the X-Factor UK with any song.

 

Alternative music is quite under represented in the charts lately, and even pop boybands don't do as well as they did before. It is mainly due to the streaming takeover where even the average rapper can clog the Spotify top-50 with the new album release, while out of alternative bands only Arctic Monkeys managed to do a huge takeover. Boybands who used to rely on fanbase first week buys / downloads also struggle now.

There were the restrictions to this questions:

- charted at #1 in 2005 or after

- the group shouldn't have participate in the X-Factor (I made this one to take out the most obvious answers).

 

The top answer (albeit with only 3 points) is Rage Against the Machine (which has been made the biggest anti X-Factor song by one of the most famous chart campaigns ever), some were also unlucky to make the same answers, while the others can enjoy their pointless options! :D

 

The Wanted, One Direction and Westlife all performed on the X-Factor. However I counted the answers with only artists being as the answer, I couldn't count Dannyboy and Riser's ones, as Oasis and Coldplay had more than one #1 in this period, so I didn't know which one they were referring to.
