Posted March 8, 20214 yr In the absence of more quiz hosts, here's my second quiz of the current season and it's a pretty straightforward 'Never Mind The Buzzjacks' style quiz. Here the intros to 25 UK number ones and all you have to do is identify the artist and title of each song (scoring system is 1 point for correct artist, 1 point for correct title). To make things a little more challenging, I haven't separated the songs. The oldest one is from 1979 but the majority are from the 1990s onwards. As always in these types of quiz, I've also included one song which DIDN'T make number one in the UK, so there are bonus points up for grabs if you can identify this, and there also another couple of bonus questions. Here are the intros: Bonus questions: 1. What is the red herring which didn't make number one? (3 points) 2. What will be the most correctly guessed song? (3 points) 3. What will be the least correctly guessed song? (3 points) (you can answer by name or by number so always worth a guess at the number) PM me your answers by 23:59 on Sunday 14th March. Good luck!

March 8, 20214 yr Well I remain dreadful at these quizzes but my concerted effort to learn songs I don't know is definitely paying off - two songs which I added to my playlist last month are in here including (I hope!) the non-#1! Here's hoping I can get a few more than two points in this though :P
March 8, 20214 yr Entered. B-) Hoping I redeem myself somewhat in this quiz after flopping spectacularly in the Albums Covers quiz last week! I enjoyed taking part and am looking forward to the results.
March 9, 20214 yr Think I've got all but two of these which I cannot link to any #1s in my recollection! I'll give myself until Friday then enter with what I have.
March 10, 20214 yr Going to give this a go. A couple of the songs are annoying me as I've heard them but cannot remember what the songs are called or the artist. :lol: Don't think I'm going to do that well.
March 12, 20214 yr Author I'm not precious about the order, as long as you've got the correct artist and title you'll get the point.
March 13, 20214 yr Entered. Thought I was doing OK until it got about 1/3rd in 😂 Edited March 13, 20214 yr by rio309

March 14, 20214 yr Unsure of the order so hope I got it! It would have been helpful to have markers on the playlist, but I guess that makes it harder :D
March 14, 20214 yr Entered. Lots more difficult than I thought it was going to be... think there's going to have to be less that 30 entrants for me to be in with a chance of getting any points on the leaderboard from this one!!
