Posted March 29, 20205 yr Q3 update: https://www.sporcle.com/games/Thermometer1/...-2020-q3-update Q2 update: https://www.sporcle.com/games/Thermometer1/...its-of-2020-q12 ++ OP ++ https://www.sporcle.com/games/Thermometer1/...hits-of-2020-q1 you have 20 minutes to name as many UK top 40 hits as you can (out of the 113 that have charted this year) just from the lead performers' names. got them all with 14:16 to spare, but then again I compiled it. :P
March 29, 20205 yr Got them all with 10:45 left, but it could've been about 5 minutes shorter if it weren't for No Denying by J Hus and Me & You Together Song by The 1975 - the latter of which I'd genuinely forgotten, idk how I ended up remembering it!
March 29, 20205 yr 90/113 - gave up after I reached these as I knew I wouldn't get the rest based off just artist names. Ei8ht Mile is a tough one, surprised if many get this! Also forgot a couple like Selena's Rare and Stormzy's Still Disappointed So many forgettable hits within the first 3 months!
March 29, 20205 yr I got them all with 11:52 to go. I'm sure I will have forgot quite a few by the end of the year though. Me & You Together Song & Baby Pluto were the ones that really took some thinking. Somehow both No Denying & No Cellular Site weren't coming to me for a while even though I was singing along to them and had previously charted them both myself.
March 30, 20205 yr Got 94/113, missing: B Young - Wine D-Block Europe - No Cellular Site Da Beatfreakz - Self-Obsessed DigDat - Ei8ht Mile Eminem - Darkness Eminem - Those Kinda Nights Fredo - Scorpion J Hus - Big Conspiracy J Hus - Play Play J Hus - Repeat KSI - Wake Up Call Lil Uzi Vert - Baby Pluto M24 - London Mabel - Don't Call Me Up (lol) Mastermind - War MIST - Savage Octavian - Papi Chulo Tobi & Manny - Destined For Greatness Young T & Bugsey - Don't Rush
March 30, 20205 yr Got them all, the only one that took me a while to remember the title of was MIST's 'Savage' - I do still remember that song but annoyingly the title isn't in the hook, I was thinking I might just not get that one but it did suddenly come back to me after a few minutes! Come back to me at the end of the year and I imagine I will have forgotten some of the more fleeting UK rap hits like everyone else already has though... :P Although 'Savage' likely won't be one of them as it looks like Megan Thee Stallion's song of the same name is also likely to become a top 40 hit and that one will be a little more memorable haha (Ed Sheeran briefly tripped me up as well for the same reason as on the 2019 end of year quiz, he has had so many hits that it's kind of tough to remember the chronology of them lol I embarrassingly missed 'South Of The Border' last time and I may have done so again this time if not for remembering that I'd missed it before :lol:)
March 30, 20205 yr Got 112/113 with 12 minutes to go then couldn't for the life of me work out what the other one was (it was Fredo - Netflix & Chill and that doesn't even ring a bell with me so can't say I'm that annoyed :P)
March 30, 20205 yr I didn’t do well at all I got 64 in total and 3/4 I got within the first two minutes. I struggled remembering album tracks what got top 40 and a few people who had multiple tracks there I do I’d only remember one. I also got some wrong where I was going for artists recent tracks when it was a 2019 track what made top 40 this year (like Tomes and I for example) At least that passed 20 mins of time though :)
March 30, 20205 yr 80/113 and I am definitely not mad at the hip hop tracks I didn't get (bar Ei8ht Mile, where I typed in Eight Mile) I didn't get the following: Andre Rieu - Ode To Joy Ashe - Moral Of The Story B Young - Wine D-Block Europe - No Cellular Site Da Beatfreakz - Self Obsessed Darkoo - Gangsta DigDat - Ei8ht Mile Don Toliver - No Idea Eminem - Darkness / Those Kinda Nights Fredo - Netflix and Chill / Scorpion Future - Life Is Good J Hus - Big Conspiracy / Must Be / No Denying / Play Play / Repeat Justin Bieber - Forever KSI - Wake Up Call Lil Mosey - Blueberry Faygo Lil Uzi Vert - Baby Pluto / P2 M24 - London Mist - Savage Octavian - Papi Chulo Stormzy - Audacity The 1975 - Me and You Together Song Tobi & Manny - Destined for Greatness Tom Walker - Better Half Of Me Travis Scott - Highest In The Room YNW Melly - Suicidal Young T & Bugsey - Don't Rush
March 31, 20205 yr 92/113 The only big hit that I forgot existed was This Is Real. I should've also remembered Ode To Joy and Pee Pee just from seeing the artist names since they were "memorable" songs for better or worse. The rest were all fleeting "hits" that failed to leave an impression.
April 2, 20205 yr I got 84. Biggest misses were the 2 Sheeran songs Beautiful People & South of the Border Also I genuinely have no recollection of the Bieber song Forever, that has passed me by completely! Was it even played on the Chart?
April 2, 20205 yr Also I genuinely have no recollection of the Bieber song Forever, that has passed me by completely! Was it even played on the Chart? Pretty sure it was, but it was just a fleeting album track entry and a very generic title (not to mention a mind-numbingly boring song) so don't blame you for forgetting it ~
July 5, 20205 yr Author Time we had a Q2 update https://www.sporcle.com/games/Thermometer1/...its-of-2020-q12 165/169 for me. (that Nafe Smallz track really has to be the most forgettable top 40 hit in recent memory)
July 5, 20205 yr 159/169 Embarrassingly forgot the name of the BLACKPINK song which debuted this week, as well as not knowing some of the J Hus tracks
July 5, 20205 yr I got 166/169. The 3 I couldn't remember were Demi Lovato - I Love Me Justin Bieber - Forever - I remembered it featured Post Malone but couldn't get the title. Lil Uzi Vert - Baby Pluto The Gerry Cinnamon & Don Toliver songs took me an age to remember.
July 5, 20205 yr Are there quizzes like these for previous years? If so could someone link them so I could have go please
