#9 took ages to work out, I had convinced myself it was also Dance Monkey for ages!

Question 10

 

 

We've got a ewe, a broken heart, a person with their hand up, and a first-place medal. The answer is:

You'll Never Walk Alone - Michael Ball & Captain Tom Moore (jlj)

Blank: Dobbo

'Dance Monkey' and 'Take You Dancing' also crossed my mind as I completely forgot about that trash cover :kink: but the moon had to be relevant, so got there eventually.

Well, I was right about #9 being something terrible, just got the wrong terrible song :basil: (I'll have it be known my answer was actually written as 'Dance Moon-key', I knew that was wrong obviously but I thought I might get a half point for creativity, lolz)

 

'CITY OF ANGELS' was one of the harder ones for me, I'm surprised that was one that got 100% - seems like a smaller / more forgettable hit than most of the others included on the list! 'West Ten' also took me a little longer than most of the others.

I'm actually doing OK at this one - after being nothing more than poor at all the other quizzes :cheer:

I would never have thought of “Ewe” first but kept coming back to words like Sheep, Lamb, Ram and Baa! :kink:

I did consider it :lol: until then I'd assumed that everyone guessing Dance Monkey had somehow mistaken the moon for a monkey face!

Question 11

 

 

And we're back with another controversial one! There's a head, and a heart. The answer is:

Head & Heart - Joel Corry ft. MNEK

Other accepted answers (full points):

Boyfriend - Mabel (chrissmith276): I decided this one did make sense as an alternate answer - it accounted for all the emojis and it was a top 40 hit this year.

 

No points:

Mad Love - Mabel (paulgilb)

Savage Love - Jason Derulo (Dobbo)

So that's it for tonight! I haven't prepared a leaderboard for the first half so scores will remain a mystery until the full results tomorrow. See you again then for part 2!

I don't think I'd have got #11 if it weren't for the first emoji also being used in one of the later questions where the context made it clearer that it meant 'head' rather than 'man'/'person' etc. :kink:

 

'THE SCOTTS' was the final one I got just before I submitted my answers! Again more people getting that than I thought but at least not quite to the extent of 'CITY OF ANGELS' - was 'Stupid Love' actually the least correctly guessed one from this first half? :o

100% on the first half :cheer: looking forward to the second part tomorrow. Thank you for your effort so far <3

I was surprised too! I thought Stupid Love was one of the easier ones while The Scotts would've been harder - apparently I misjudged completely :kink:

Haha how could I not get Head & Heart but glad you accepted that Boyfriend fitted!

 

Stupid Love was the last one I got in that section so glad to see it was the hardest one based on the numbers!

Omg I’m a full Gaga stan and this is the now the second time I’ve not gotten one where she’s the answer :lol:

 

West Ten seems obvious now I’ve looked at it.

 

The Scotts totally slipped my mind probably because it’s not a genre of music I listen to all the time.

but #3 cannot be Don't Need Love too? It actually makes more sense to me than Stupid Love

the Brain emoji actually means "need", so that's clearly Don't + Need + Love to me :D

 

Put me out of my misery now about what #16 is! :P

 

16 was the first artist one I worked out!

 

Not doing too badly, forgot about it until late after I initially looked at it a few days ago. A couple I might have got with more time, but definitely a couple I would never have got.

How does a brain emoji mean 'need' lol ~ that's even more tenuous than a moon emoji meaning 'monkey'.

I've never heard of it meaning that before - has anyone else?

A quick Google search - no mention of the word 'need' ;)

 

1 point:

Stupid Love - Lady Gaga & Ariana Grande (M4NGO)

OMFG why did I put Lady Gaga & Ariana Grande??? Proper blonde moment there :lol: that one was definitely the hardest in the whole quiz and took me ages to get! I'm so annoyed with myself for stupidly putting Ariana though and I'll be even more annoyed if that ends up being the only point I dropped :(

 

And no I've never heard of the brain emoji meaning "need", at least not on planet Earth :unsure:
