April 19, 20214 yr Congratulations Mango on winning series 4 and the quiz. Thanks for hosting Jim. Oh dear, I flopped badly.
April 19, 20214 yr Yay, congrats to Mango! :clap: Finally your first widget *.* Joint-5th might be my best finish of the whole series, so pleased to finish on a high. I was absolutely clueless on the ABBA question but made up for it with several top answers, luckier than usual for me. Thanks for hosting, Jim, great round! It seemed very careful to avoid any landslide questions so I'm impressed that as many as 15 managed to think alike on a question! :lol:
April 19, 20214 yr Happy with just scraping the Top 3rd. As for the series I am in steady decline - 1st, 3rd, 5th.... Thanks for hosting and well done to winners! :) Sorry again Chris, I feel like this outcome would have been very different if I had only allowed for UB40 to be a correctly named boyband in the opening week! :(
April 19, 20214 yr Boo hiss at the lucky bonus question guess from Mango costing me a well earnt win!!! :angry: This started off pretty badly with me getting 0 in the first few questions revealed but of course with the way this reveal worked it was more important to get the top answers later in the thread, which I did get most of :cheer: For the ABBA question my logic wasn't going for the highest charting song that isn't on 'Gold' (that'd be too much effort x), I just picked track 1 off 'More Gold' :kink: I've actually never even heard of the song I picked for that question ('I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do' and 'The Day Before You Came' came to mind before that) but I thought that'd probably be the smart move and I was correct. My answer of Rihanna for the song title & artist name question was based on the Yxng Bane song btw - but good thing 'Walks Like Rihanna' exists to save me as I expect most if not all of the other people were going for that :lol: I was just pulling a mind blank on any other answers but in retrospect Marvin Gaye and especially Barbra Streisand should definitely have come to me quicker! Also my first thought for the song with Christmas in the lyrics actually was blink-182 but I went for Taylor because of it being more recent (and I wasn't quite sure how well-known the lyrics of 'I Miss You' are on here), so that cost me a few points oops xx Good that 'Blank Space' was a top answer though, I found it a little amusing that I answered with Taylor songs 2 questions in a row when the questions had absolutely no relation to each other :lol:
April 20, 20214 yr always surprised at people's answer in these games, maybe its cos I'm not uk but my 1st thought is always an answer completely different from everyone else :D for the Xmas song I kinda thought everyone would go with Sade-The Sweetest Taboo :o which has what I thought was a very famous chorus of "Every day is Christmas/every night is New Year'e eve" :D for the whistle song I thought the most popular would be Don't Worry Be Happy or Young Folks, never ever thought about Derulo.
April 20, 20214 yr Well one thing I've learned from this quiz is Moves Like Jagger wasn't playlisted on Radio 1 :o wonder why that was considering it seems like the most radio-staple song of all time. Needless to say I had no idea how to search for that question. Good finish though and pretty close with the top answer guess. Great quiz Jim, love the rounds where there's not too many landslides (especially when I manage to get most of the few of them :))
April 20, 20214 yr for the whistle song I thought the most popular would be Don't Worry Be Happy or Young Folks, never ever thought about Derulo. ...and neither did anyone else :magic:
April 20, 20214 yr No one but me even said the whistle song 🙈 I thought of that but then rejected it as it has a whistle blowing, not whistling. ;) I’d totally forgotten that Flo Rida song existed and I even downloaded it at the time!
April 20, 20214 yr Well I needed those bonus 15 points after not even thinking about Rihanna for that question, surprised it got so many! Thanks jimwatts for a great quiz and congrats on the win Mango!
