February 15, 20214 yr Author QUESTION SIX Name a boyband to have made over 10 appearances in the main compilation series Now That’s What I Call Music! (Now 1-107) myJhPrjXhQ4 It really was damage limitation for this question, and those who correctly answered McFly were the worst off for it.

February 15, 20214 yr I thought UB40 would be fine as it is an all male band who did pop music so technically a "boy band"?
February 15, 20214 yr yeah this evil question lol I went through so many NOW track lists for Blue only to find out they had 9 appearances...McFly was something I answered after I got tired and I was like if it's wrong then it is what is!!!
February 15, 20214 yr I thought UB40 would be fine as it is an all male band who did pop music so technically a "boy band"? I assume U2 is probably too rock to be considered a boy band?
February 15, 20214 yr Boy bands are generally vocal groups that don't play instruments. I avoided McFly for that reason but I see they were allowed.
February 15, 20214 yr Glad One Direction didn't prove too popular an answer! They had exactly 10 appearances including 2 on the same edition - what a squeeze :lol: I initially did the same as Addy and was gutted when Blue stalled at 9 appearances! Both JLS and The Wanted had less than I expected.

February 15, 20214 yr 'Sugar Sugar' came into my head for two different questions (the thumbnail is a clue for the other one) but I didn't actually pick it for either! Glad Elton was a Pointless! That of course being a "honey" song.
February 15, 20214 yr Author QUESTION EIGHT Name a dance song that has charted in the Top 40 so far in 2021 nCg3ufihKyU No incorrect answers here, but also no pointless answers given either when there were some available to choose from such as Top 40 singles from Nathan Evans, Meduza and HVME.

February 15, 20214 yr Hi ‘wardy, Just catching up. I thought someone asked a clarification on the country question and things like American, British, etc were allowed (I might’ve remembered wrongly though)? That’s why I put ‘Tom Jones – Young New Mexican Puppeteer’’. I changed my answer from China Girl - David Bowie!! Also my Q7 answer is missing. Transvision Vamp - I want your love
February 15, 20214 yr I used Journey South for 2 answers and that’s proved to be a good description of how my game has gone. :arrr:
February 15, 20214 yr That Now question was EVIL, where the hell is there even a list of those? :drama: This went downhill fast, I was so confident in Shayne Ward and Paul Heaton :'(
February 15, 20214 yr Oh dear. I more than doubled my points total on that one. My lack of knowledge of top 40 music in 2021 cost me there. :mellow:
February 15, 20214 yr oh I nearly went for HVME, considered most of those answers at some point though :lol:
February 15, 20214 yr Ooh doing pretty well with these for once on here :lol: the only thing #sabotaging myself here is I don't get how I got a pointless answer for Amy McDonald when I looked it up after I submitted and it turns out there's no self titled album lol. That's the one I assumed there was. Oops at McFly being too obvious but yay for the other results so far. Edited February 15, 20214 yr by Rob S
February 15, 20214 yr That Now question was EVIL, where the hell is there even a list of those? :drama: This went downhill fast, I was so confident in Shayne Ward and Paul Heaton :'( I used the lists on the Lounge poll of Now songs that Wardy and Dan did three years ago. It would have taken much longer to keep clicking from one album to the next one. I would have just done a wild guess.
