February 15, 20214 yr Not thinking too much into it and going for the first song that came into my head worked for me there!
February 15, 20214 yr This is something I apologise for, mistakes, please continue to point them out to me when I’ve made them and I’ll correct the answers! Fairly sure these are the others who have: AC/DC - including Back In Black (not previously charted) plus some re-entries Adam Lambert - For Your Entertainment Andrea Bocelli - Canto Della Terra (orig. released 1999 but returned and peaked in 2000) Yungblud - appeared Obey with BMTH
February 15, 20214 yr Author QUESTION FOUR Name a #1 single from a former TV soap star o3wS2tdlZtE Another category with few different answers given, and perhaps some grey areas. I’m not sure someone would consider The Fresh Prince of Bel Air an American soap opera when it is a sitcom, but do I have any grounds to disallow it as a pointless answer when I wasn’t clear in the wording? Not sure about Ricky Martin either, but both Holly Valance and Jason Donovan of Neighbours were the most answered, with Martine McCutcheon just behind. Plenty of Kylie and some of her #1’s were pointless!

February 15, 20214 yr Well I was torn between Holly and Martine so made no difference. Seems so obvious to go for a Kylie one though as she's had so many!
February 15, 20214 yr Surprised that Vengaboys song was so well remembered for Q3. After I voted, I thought of that last hit from The Wanted about America, should have switched!
February 15, 20214 yr Argh I was well chuffed with my Voodoo Chile answer haha - didn't think anyone else would go for it, let alone it being top answer! :( Ditto :(
February 15, 20214 yr Ricky Martin was in a soap , thats a great answer !! The fresh prince isnt a soap haha Edited February 15, 20214 yr by vibe
February 15, 20214 yr I went for Kylie Minogue as there were many number 1s by her to choose from. 1 point is not too bad for that one. I thought of Wendy Richard but she wasn't a former soap star when she got to number 1. It was well before she did Eastenders. And Nick Berry was still in it when he had a number 1 so he wasn't former either. I suppose all these people are former soap stars now so I can understand why you allowed these answers.
February 15, 20214 yr I did provide a back-up answer in case Fresh Prince didn't constitute a soap opera for these purposes...
February 15, 20214 yr Argh I was well chuffed with my Voodoo Chile answer haha - didn't think anyone else would go for it, let alone it being top answer! :( I did think of it, and thought it would be allowed, but wasn't 100% sure - it's not pronounced like and definitely not about the South American country :lol:
February 15, 20214 yr Ah rubbish - I thought that was the most obscure of Jason D's number ones! Maybe it is but lots of others had the same idea. :nocheer:

February 15, 20214 yr I cant believe Another Level wasn't pointless !! Haha sorry - that was a last minute change for me as they randomly popped into my head!
February 15, 20214 yr Haha sorry - that was a last minute change for me as they randomly popped into my head! on reflection i guess the boyband question could have made people consider them
