adrianreavill83's Pop Music Quiz - 24 December 2020

 

To all Buzz Jack members, i have compiled a quiz for you this Christmas Eve.

 

I am going to give you a list of 10 singles that topped the UK chart in a specific year.

 

The question is this - I have named 10 chart topping singles from a given year. However there is a catch - One of these songs is a fake number one hit.

 

You have to guess what the fake one is and what the correct answer should be?

 

Question 1 - No.1 hits of 1989

 

1. Kylie and Jason - Especially For You

2. Simple Minds - Belfast Child

3. Soul II Soul - Back To Life

4. Alice Cooper - Poison

5. Jive Bunny - Swing The Mood

6. Black Box - Ride On Time

7. Lisa Stansfield - All Around The World

8. New Kids On The Block - You Got It (The Right Stuff)

9. Jive Bunny - Let's Party

10. Band Aid II - Do They Know It's Christmas

 

Which one of these songs is the fake number one?

 

Clue. The fake No.1 was kept off the top spot by one of the No.1's on the question

Alice Cooper - 'Poison'? I believe 'School's Out' was his only #1 here.

 

(I'll let someone else attempt the real #1 so I don't hog this thread x)

Oh, I’d got that part of the question :lol:

'Poison' is one of my favourite ever number 2s :wub:

The answer was Poison by Alice Cooper (UK No.2), and the song that kept it off was Swing The Mood by Jive Bunny

I like these quizzes, watching the TOTP repeats from 1989 currently so knew that one!!

Oh yeah I should've clocked that only two Jive Bunny #1s were in the list as they indeed managed a whopping three in one year.

 

That was fun, would definitely love more ^_^

I would have said 'Poison' as well. One of the best #2's of all time for me :wub: typical that Jive Bunny of all things held it off :lol:

Now it's time for another question - No.1's of 1987

 

1. Steve Silk Hurley - Jack Your Body

2. Ben E King - Stand By Me

3. Curiosity Killed The Cat - Down To Earth

4. Boy George - Everything I Own

5. Madonna - La Isla Bonita

6. Starship - Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now

7. Pet Shop Boys - It's A Sin

8. Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up

9. T'Pau - China In Your Hand

10. Pet Shop Boys - Always On My Mind

 

Which is the fake number one?

Curiosity Killed The Cat?

Above post - correct answer (peaked at No.3)

What was actually the number one instead again?
