May 3, 20205 yr Author 40. Taylor Swift - Wildest Dreams IdneKLhsWOQ Kicking off the top 40 we have the 5th single from the 1989 era, Taylor Swift's gorgeous and one of her best songs ever, Wildest Dreams :heart: The track charted for two weeks at #40 with its removal from streaming harming its UK chart performance. A beautiful classic and the video is amaze too *.* this is one of the hardest ones in this quiz with Rush being the only person to guess correctly! other guesses are bops like I'm A Mess and queen Eliza Doolittle. I did make this one rly hard :kink: Points: Rush - 2pts Wrong Guesses: Chrissmith276 - Lily Allen Mango - Alicia Keys Jade - HAIM SamJudd - Eliza Doolittle - Let It Rain Bjork - Pink - What About Us MrAndrewMan - Coldplay PeteFromLeeds - Lana Del Rey Riser - Bebe Rexha - I'm A Mess No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr Author 39. Lady Gaga - Million Reasons en2D_5TzXCA At 39 we have Lady Gaga's gorgeous Million Reasons, which spent a single week in the top 40 officially in the UK, whilst being a top 5 hit like Wildest Dreams in the US. This is such a beautiful moment from Joanne and this feels way more remembered than originally expected as it seemed to probs get the biggest catalogue boost for Gaga from the ASIB exposure <3 this one goes better with just over a third of you getting this correct! wrong guesses are mostly ppl just guessing artists and hoping for luck, whilst also having the ultimate screech song mentioned *.* Points: Chrissmith276, Jordan Lee, Mango, Jade, SamJudd, Bjork, Rush, Cremey, :') - 2pts Wrong Guesses: MrAndrewMan - Coldplay PeteFromLeeds - Kesha Dan1751 - Kings Of Leon - Use Somebody Riser - Demi Lovato - Stone Cold No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr I'm pretty sure I guessed Taylor Swift for at least 2 songs - should've known there would be even more :rofl: Glad I got Gaga :wub:
May 3, 20205 yr Author 38. Lizzo - Juice en2D_5TzXCA At 38 we have a major bop from Lizzo, with Juice still being my fave song by her. This was Lizzo's first top 40 hit in the UK and spent a week in the top 40 at 38 and 8 weeks top 75! an utter bop that I always get my life to *.* this one was nearly a full house with 18 out of 22 getting it correct! the two wrong guesses were a forgotten dance hit and the devil's incarnate x Points: Chrissmith276, Jordan Lee, Mango, Jade, Dan, LewisGT, SamJudd, Vibe, Bjork, West, Coi, MrAndrewMan, PeteFromLeeds, Dan17F1, Riser, Rush, Cremey, :') - 2pts Wrong Guesses: Mack - Breach - Jack N4yr - Jess Glynne No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr Author 37. Anne Marie - Heavy ZOdltebCOX8 At 37 we have Heavy from Anne-Marie, a bop that I actually forgot even went top 40 until I did this, it actually spent 3 weeks top 40 and peaked at 37! This isn't a major AM fave of mine but its still an underrated bop. this was another pretty easy one with most of Anne-Marie's first era singles having v. similar single covers but with different colours and 17 of you got this one correct! Points: Chrissmith276, Jordan Lee, Mango, Jade, Dan, LewisGT, SamJudd, Bjork, West, Coi, MrAndrewMan, JimWatts, PeteFromLeeds, Dan17F1, Riser, Rush, :') - 2pts Wrong Guesses: N4yr - Pixie Lott No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr The Lizzo cover was really distinctive for me! I immediately recognised that purple one as Anne-Marie too but had to double check the song.
May 3, 20205 yr Author 36. Kelly Clarkson - I Do Not Hook Up AaafMpqXXBs And completing our first set of 5 at 36 we have Kelly Clarkson's absolute bop I Do Not Hook Up, this is so underrated and deserved to be such a bigger smash. Kelly is one of my all time faves and this was the 2nd single from All I Ever Wanted and it underperformed compared to expectations, with only one week top 40 :( 8 year old me bopped to this 24/7 at the time. this one was a bit harder than the last couple with it being less recent but 10 of you still managed to get it correct, with two more recognising that this was Kelly! the wrong guesses are pretty much other successful female artists I stan. Points: Chrissmith276, Scene, Mack, SamJudd, Bjork, Riser, Rush, Cremey, :') - 2pts Jade, N4yr - 1pt (got artist, no guess for song) West - 1pt (got artist, went for my life would suck without you) Wrong Guesses: Jordan Lee - Meghan Trainor Mango - Madonna MrAndrewMan - Cheryl PeteFromLeeds - Rachel Platten No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr I had a strong feeling that was Kelly Clarkson and even searched up single covers to check, I somehow must have skipped over that one! :lol: Pleased to have 1 point at least :kink:
May 3, 20205 yr Author 35. Calvin Harris feat. HAIM - Pray To God 8FOBxcluXdk At 35, we have Pray To God which teamed up DJ superstar Calvin Harris and indie faves HAIM for this banger. This was my immediate fave from Motion and I'd acc say this is my fave Calvin song ever, HAIM elevate this much and its so euphoric, a fab team up <3 this peaked at 35 for two weeks and spent three weeks in the top 40, this deserved the success of Calvin's 18 months singles :( oops this one was def one of the hardest one, with only 4 of you picking up points and most leaving this blank! Points: Dan, SamJudd, Riser, Rush - 2pts Wrong Guesses: Chrissmith276 - Halsey Mango - CharliXCX Jade, West - Beyonce MrAndrewMan - Eminem PeteFromLeeds - Katy Perry No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr the Taylor one was nearly impossible :D I also stupidly thought that there wouldn't be 2 singles by the same artist on here, which will probably screw me :blink:
May 3, 20205 yr At least I wasn't the only person to put Beyoncé :kink: all I could guess was something related to that live-action version of The Lion King oops I do love 'Pray To God' though :wub:
May 3, 20205 yr I also assumed there would only be 1 per artist oh Pray to God is also my fav Calvin song, but don't think I ever seen the single cover
May 3, 20205 yr Author 34. M83 - Midnight City dX3k_QDnzHE And at 34, we have Midnight City, a song with male vocals :o This is a banger of life and this spent four weeks top 40 in 2012, peaking at 34. A classic which I still listen to regularly <3 this one was better for you guys with just under half of you getting this correct, more than I was expecting *.* most the wrong answers are other indie artists/dance acts! Points: Chrissmith276, Scene, Dan, LewisGT, Coi, MrandrewMan, Dan1751, Riser, Rush, Cremey - 2pts Wrong Guesses: Mango - Christine & The Queens Jade - Bastille Mack - Of Monsters & Men - Little Talks PeteFromLeeds - Madonna N4yr - Galantis No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr OK I see the theme now :lol: I think it would have been almost impossible to get the theme if you didn't get most of them right though!
May 3, 20205 yr Author for artists with more than one songs, I think there's only two artists that have more than one song (and one I just realised now oops who was only meant to have one song in this, so there was only meant to be one) so that won't affect y'all too badly!
