May 3, 20205 yr Considering I didn't even get half of these covers I'm super happy I got the theme. :D
May 3, 20205 yr Author 26. Kesha - Praying Dur3uXXCQ At 26 we have Kesha's Praying, a beautiful, poignant and incredible song which is my fave in her discography <3 Her vocals are insane on this and this song rly hits hard with all the context surrounding it <3 Praying didn't get the highest peaks but was a long running hit worldwide, with it peaking at 26 in the UK with 5 weeks top 40 (Ngl I did think it stayed longer in the top 40 in the UK :( ). this was one of the easiest covers to recognise in this quiz and most of you managed to successfully get this, with 19 of you getting full marks and Mack getting half points, with just two people not submitting an answer for this one. such a stunning artwork :heart: Points: Chrissmith276, Jordan Lee, Mango, Scene, Jade, Dan, LewisGT, SamJudd, Bjork, West, Coi, MrAndrewMan, PeteFromLeeds, Dan1751, Riser, N4yr, Rush, Cremey, :') - 2pts Mack - Kesha - Your Love Is My Drug - 1pt (right artist, wrong song) Wrong Guesses: No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr Author okay with the time this is taking, I'm gonna go up to 21 (and reveal theme answers after that cos y'all know what it is by now) for now and then 20-1 will come tomorrow afternoon! x (I may do a few at like 10/11pm if people are around and if I'm around haha) Nicola Sturgeon as an answer really cracked me up :rofl: same I screamed :lol:
May 3, 20205 yr I’m happy with how I’m doing genuinely gutted at the theme! As soon as i seen how the results were being revealed (like by the time it to got #36) I clicked on.
May 3, 20205 yr Author 25. Panic at the Disco - I Write Sins, Not Tragedies vc6vs-l5dkc At 25 we go for a throwback from Panic with another banger, I Write Sins Not Tragedies *.* I'm always surprised how low this peaked as its still so well remembered nowadays, but it only peaked at 25 and spent three weeks top 40! and it seems going a bit older didn't pay off for most of u guys here, with only 4 people scoring points! of the wrong answers, I do see BEP & Florence in this artwork haha so I get those guesses. Points: Dan, Dan1751, Riser, Rush - 2pts Wrong Guesses: Chrissmith276 - Halsey Mango - DJ Khaled feat. Rihanna - Wild Thoughts Jade - Black Eyed Peas Bjork - Florence & The Machine MrAndrewMan - Eminem PeteFromLeeds - ABBA No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr I actually thought that Girl power being the theme was too easy :D but all the ones I recognised after 5 seconds were from females so...
May 3, 20205 yr I realised what the theme was as soon as Wildest Dreams was posted on here, gutted that didn't come to me when I was submitting my votes but a very good choice of theme! So gutted I didn't get I Write Sins Not Tragedies, a classic!
May 3, 20205 yr Author 24. Tiesto, Jonas Blue & Rita Ora - Ritual ontU9cOg354 At 24 we have two of the hottest DJ's teaming-up with icon and slayer of the charts & tv talent shows Rita Ora for unsurprisingly, a fab bop *.* (tho of 2019 dance-songs, God is a Dancer and Carry On>>>>this). This did pretty solidly in the charts, peaking at #24 and spending 10 weeks top 40! a banger *.* half of you get this right, good going *.* wrong answers are double Post and the Beyonce screenshot is sending me, iconic *.* Points: Chrissmith276, Jordan Lee, Dan, LewisGT, SamJudd, Bjork, PeteFromLeeds, Dan1751, Riser, N4yr, :') - 2pts Wrong Guesses: Mango - Nicki Minaj Jade - Post Malone MrAndrewMan - Post Malone - Circles Rush - a screenshot from a Beyoncé video No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr The colour palette is so similar to Posty's latest album so I thought I'd put it anyway even though I knew it was wrong :kink:
May 3, 20205 yr Author 23. Arctic Monkeys - R U Mine? VQH8ZTgna3Q At 23 we have another banger, this time from the Arctic Monkeys *.* this was a minor hit for them, debuting and peaking at #23 and spent two weeks top 40 in total. I'm glad a few of you at least managed to get this cos this was def one of the harder ones! Most people guess popular artists from the last couple of decades and the only song guess is for that Coldplay abomination x Points: Dan, Coi, Dan1571, Rush - 2pts Wrong Guesses: Chrissmith276 - Halsey Jordan Lee - Justin Bieber Mango - Nicki Minaj Jade - Sophie Ellis-Bextor MrAndrewMan - Eminem PeteFromLeeds - Girls Aloud Riser - Coldplay - Hymn For The Weeknd N4yr - The Saturdays No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr I would've been a lot more effective at guessing your favourite songs tbh Hahahaha me too I think!! :rolleyes:
May 3, 20205 yr Author 22. DJ Fresh - Gold Dust RNuUgbUzM8U At 22 is one of my fave dance songs of the last decade, DJ Fresh's Gold Dust is still his best song and damn this song goes off, the chorus is a BOP and the verses are fire <3 This is remembered pretty well nowadays and is ALWAYS played when I go clubbing, a classic <3 anyway despite this peaking at #22, it was a pretty major hit with 21 weeks top 40 (split across two different chart runs in two different years), iconic *.* ngl I thought esp with the colours and pretty distinctive artwork, more of you would get this one correct than you did but this is another low scoring answer here! this time we head to the mid 2000's for most of the wrong answers! Points: Mango, Dan, LewisGT, Coi, MrAndrewMan, Dan17F1 - 2pts Wrong Guesses: Chrissmith276 - Halsey Jordan Lee - Daft Punk Jade - Muse SamJudd - Madonna - Die Another Day PeteFromLeeds - Leona Lewis Riser - Calvin Harris - The Girls Rush - Mark Ronson feat. Bruno Mars - Uptown Funk but transformed into the colour scheme of his previous album No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr Author 21. Lana Del Rey - West Coast oKxuiw3iMBE And ending for the results today at #21, we have the lead single from Lana's magnum opus Ultraviolence with the gorgeous West Coast <3 this is such a beautiful and relaxing song and the transitions from verses to chorus are PERFECT, one of her all time best and a beautiful track :heart: This sadly just missed the top 20 officially and spent 4 weeks top 40, it deserved so much better! and were finally back to y'all doing rly well as 16 out of the 22 of you get full points on this! <3 West Coast's artwork is low-key one of my faves, there's something so striking and gorgeous about it :heart: Points: Chrissmith276, Jordan Lee, Mango, Scene, Jade, Dan, LewisGT, SamJudd, Bjork, Coi, Dan1751, Riser, N4yr, Rush, Cremey, :') - 2pts Wrong Guesses: West - Cheryl MrAndrewMan - Eminem PeteFromLeeds - Katy Perry No Answer: everyone else
May 3, 20205 yr I thought that cover was Demi or Selena initially :lol: but then it clicked! Absolutely love 'West Coast' :wub:
May 3, 20205 yr Author and let's do a Theme Reveal because you all know the theme by now is a song peaking at each position in the top 40 as this single cover edition is a top 40 rundown. 2 of you managed to get this (I'm glad some did aha!!) <3 whilst 1 person got another theme which fits so I'll give 10pts for that haha. most of the wrong answers are on the same theme unsurprisingly haha x here's all y'all guesses for the bonus and the points u got! Theme guesses: Chrissmith276 - Also I thought the theme was all female soloists, band or lead vocal but M83 - Midnight City is the odd one out here. Anyway, still going with my original theme just in case as cannot think of anything else plausible, hence my random guesses for the ones I did't know!! - 0pts Jordan Lee - no songs are #1 hits - 0pts Mango - I haven't got a clue about the theme, the only thing I can think of is that all the songs feature female vocalists. - 0pts Scene - I'm going to guess that the theme is: each song has peaked at a different position in the top 40. I know that all but two of the ones above ^ are correct and I'm pretty sure none of them have peaked at the same position in the chart. - 20pts Jade - Bonus - these DEFFO seem like Sam faves all round, songs that are within your EOY top 10 for each year? - 0pts Mack - n/a - 0pts Dan - n/a - 0pts LewisGT - no clue - 0pts SamJudd - Theme is Female Artists/Empowerment - 0pts Vibe - Females No Number 1’s - 0pts Bjork - female singers/girl power - 0pts West - As well, I am going to guess the theme is female empowerment. - 0pts Coi - n/a - 0pts MrAndrewMan - n/a - 0pts JimWatts - the lead artists have all been on #1 singles, but not with these. - 0pts Pete - n/a - 0pts Dan1751 - Idk, they were all released after 2000? - 10pts Riser - My guess for the theme is that you put similar names next to each other..(examples removed cos later spoilers x)..idk - 0pts N4yr - My guess for theme is female vocalists - 0pts Rush - I believe the theme is that there's one song peaking at every spot in the top 40, in the order 16-20, 11-15, 6-10, 1-5, 36-40, 31-35, 26-30, 21-25 - 20pts Cremey - For the theme I have no idea...buzzjack multichart number ones?? - 0pts Kath - top 40 hits sung by female artists/groups - 0pts See you tomorrow 20-1 and the leaderboard reveal x :heart:
