November 30, 20204 yr Author 07 – The Magician – Sunlight (feat. Years & Years) (2014) TFXlWfzW9Uo UK Chart Peak: 07 Entered at Peak: Yes – 5/7 This next is one of my favourite songs from the last period that I really kept up to date with the charts and the music that was in them, The Magician and Years & Years with Sunlight, a fairly chilled out dance song that I still think sounds great today.

November 30, 20204 yr Oh darn! I knew I knew that one but I just couldn't place it among all those songs that sound a bit like it
November 30, 20204 yr TUNE :wub: That song made me question if the theme was "songs sent to BJSC" but it soon became obvious that it wasn't the case :lol:
November 30, 20204 yr Author 08 – Christine & The Queens – Tilted (2016) 9RBzsjga73s UK Chart Peak: 20 Entered at Peak: No – 5/8 Next is the second most correctly guessed song Tilted by Christine & The Queens. I had no idea it had been anything like this big a hit and despite its relatively low peak clearly made its way into everyone’s conscience with 26 of 28 correctly guessing, King Rollo highly unlucky with the bonus Q.

November 30, 20204 yr Damn - Got the answer right on #7 but couldn't see that it had charted for some reason. That now confirms that I knew what the theme was but was thrown off by not finding the chart position for it so I put another theme! Edited November 30, 20204 yr by chrissmith276
November 30, 20204 yr Author 09 – Martin Garrix & Dua Lipa – Scared To Be Lonely (2017) e2vBLd5Egnk UK Chart Peak: 14 Entered at Peak: No – 5/9 Next up was the first song where the clip I included was not its intro, part of Martin Garrix and BuzzJack favourite Dua Lipa’s Scared To Be Lonely, it didn’t put people off though as again a lot of correct answers.

Khalid))
November 30, 20204 yr Oh yeah it was the back-to-back of both 'Sunlight' and 'Tilted' that made me think of BJSC as this was sent in its original form to the contest ('Christine'!) - one of the most unexpected top 40 hits of the past 5 years, the accompanying album was my favourite of that year too <3 Edit: ARGH no way was that something other than 'Silence'!! Oops :blush:
November 30, 20204 yr Author Damn - Got the answer right on #7 but couldn't see that it had charted for some reason. That now confirms that I knew what the theme was but was thrown off by not finding the chart position for it so I put another theme! I was wondering where you'd managed to go wrong with it!
November 30, 20204 yr 'Tilted' was such a standout song in the chart of its day, feels like one of the few songs that Buzzjack almost unanimously supported. I also remember the week it got its sole chart play (thanks to the summer dance playlist they only played the Top 20 for a few weeks), a real moment.
November 30, 20204 yr The English language version of 'Christine' (aka 'Tilted') has always occupied a weird space in my affections. If it had been my introduction to the song I'm sure I'd adore it but I can't get over how awkward and clunky some of the English lyrics sound compared to the original (which is still the version that I remember and get stuck in my head whenever I think about the song). 'Temper la poo' >>> 'actually good' any way of the week x 'Scared To Be Lonely' is a bit crap so I don't mind missing that one. The next one is the one I am most dreading seeing the results from because I feel like it's one of the most obvious ones but I just couldn't quite get it. Cue me being the only person who missed it.
November 30, 20204 yr Sunlight *.* what a moment I definitely recognised that instrumental from #4 but couldn't figure it out for the life of me :lol:
November 30, 20204 yr Author 10 – Deep Dish – Flashdance (2004) yQ_f1pgx9JY UK Chart Peak: 03 Entered at Peak: Yes - 6/10 Song 10 is a song which got two sets of multiple incorrect answers, and listening back can see where they come from, but it is not Bodyrockers or Paul Oakenfold with similar songs from around the same time, it is in fact Deep Dish with their 2004 #3 hit Flashdance.

Brittany Murphy)), AaronTM, M4NGO, PeteFromLeeds, Riser, Vibe (Bodyrockers – I Like The Way), N4yr (Rogue Traders – Voodoo Child) Edited November 30, 20204 yr by RabbitFurCoat
November 30, 20204 yr Flashdance was such a tune!! I can definitely see why some people thought Bodyrockers though.
November 30, 20204 yr Love the array of incorrectly guessed mid-00s dance songs :lol: once again... what a TUNE!
November 30, 20204 yr I KNEW I knew that one! I didn't think it sounded right enough to be Bodyrockers but don't think I'd have been able to pull that out of my head.
November 30, 20204 yr Ah, that's not as annoying as I thought it was going to be. I do know that song obviously but it's not exactly an all time favourite or a huge unmistakeable classic or anything. I was this close to thinking I was going to be the only person to not get it and was almost tempted to guess it as being the most guessed answer... :lol: I did briefly think it might have been BodyRockers as well but quickly figured out it wasn't that when the vocals that came to my mind weren't those of a predator x I have been erroneously included in the list of correct answers btw.
November 30, 20204 yr Author 11 – Redlight – Get Out of My Head (2012) 4AqbLGHqsTg UK Chart Peak: 18 Entered at Peak: Yes - 7/11 Up next was a clip which I’d guess to be the BBCs cricket theme, one of a few I used that I personally wouldn’t get. It the first of two 2012 hits for Redlight, Get Out My Head. The lowest score yet, but not quite the lowest with three lower to come. I did enjoy BillyH’s wrong answer, quite plausible! It was the third most popular choice for ‘Fewest Correct Answers’ bonus, one of which I’m not sure whether Cremey meant as he put a #11 between Deep Dish and Redlight which messed up the co-ordination of most answers. Correct Answers [16/28] –Awardinary, Bre, Chrissmith276, CianS, Cremey, DalekTurret32, Dandy*, Danvember, Dobbo, Jade, Jimwatts, M4NGO, Riser, SevenSeize, StoneDragon, TS0301 Blank [9] – AaronTM, Ansel, Bjork, jlj, King Rollo, N4yr, PaulGilb, Rush, Vibe Incorrect [3] - BillyH (You knocking on a microphone), Mack (Safri-A-Duo - The Bongo Song), PeteFromLeeds (Capella)
November 30, 20204 yr Author I thought Flashdance entered at #90, so not at its peak? Great tune though! I took everything from Polyhex but happy to be corrected on anything. If I'm counting Baby It's You's #80 as being in the charts I should count that week at 90!
November 30, 20204 yr Author 12 – José González – Heartbeats (2006) TOsRkcV8pCk UK Chart Peak: 09 Entered at Peak: Yes - 8/12 One of a few songs where there are two versions which I find incredible, Jose Gonzalez’ take on The Knife’s Heartbeats, made famous and popular by its inclusion in the Sony TV advert with the bouncy balls. Another song that’s well remembered with a great score (much to AaronTM’s surprise), but as if I’d include James Blunt!
