Damn I thought Dua would have been more popular!

I just saw 'OMG' as part of the question and thought following that logic would be solid, glad that paid off!

thought WAP and IDGAF would be more popular especially the latter

Quite a lot of pointless answers to this question... which... wasn't the objective! :lol: The landsline victory once again goes to Adele for her current #1 single Easy On Me. There's a token couple of points for those who answered Dua Lipa, but all the others sent did not score points. Well done to those of you who researched the Track of The Week archives by WhoOdyssey. :)

I picked the quiz thread for Q4 as it relates to this quiz but that was a bad decision. I did think of picking OMG for Q5 as it was in the question, I should have stuck with that.

Yep thought I'd go recent and Adele squeaking past 20% fit the bill :lol:

These sorts of questions are always fun! :lol: You never know who people will think of when asked to name someone from the community as an answer on a quiz, but it was Bjork who was clearly the most well thought of member of the UK Charts forum whose not currently a moderator! People who answered Everton, jimwatts or Mangø also scored points for this question. The rest were all nil pointers, including a number who named themselves. :kink:

Thanks Bjork for the points :kink:

I almost picked Bjork for that one. I went for Jim as he's at the top of the quiz leaderboard.

QUESTION EIGHT

CORRECT ANSWERS

21
~1^∞, Ansel, Bjork, dandy*, dan:G, dj_tim_e, Hadji, Jade, JulianT, Lee_J11, LiamSime, Mangø, n4yr, paulgilb, Riser, StoneDragon, vibe, Viper*, xajnipi (18 Points)

19

NO POINTS

N/A

Everybody scored points in this question! As there were only 3 possible answers to choose from, and all numerical answers too, chances are you would have a good possibility of scoring lots of points in this round. It is Adele's second studio album, 21, that scored the most points here, with 25 second and 19 last.

why did people vote for me? I thought the landslide answer was gonna be Adelita, why no one else voted for her :o

You stood out as a prominent non-mod poster in my head - I think I associate Adelita more with the Gaga forum :lol:

 

Glad '21' was a good answer, the album that sent her stratospheric <3

I didn't expect the majority to pick the middle one.

Went for more recent over bigger selling there oops.

 

(Apologies to Rollo, Liam and Riser for the question before!)

QUESTION NINE

Name a UK Top 40 single with a flower, or the word “flowers” in the title

CORRECT ANSWERS

Sweet Female Attitude – Flowers
Ansel, Bré, dandy*, dan:G, dj_tim_e, Hadji, Jade, Lee_J11, LewisGT, Mangø, n4yr, rio309, vibe, Viper* (13 Points)

Nathan Dawe feat. Jaykae – Flowers
Bjork, chrissmith276, Dobbo., LiamSime, paulgilb, PeteFromLeeds, Riser (6 Points)

Saint JHN – Roses
jimwatts, JulianT, King Rollo, StoneDragon, xajnipi (4 Points)

NO POINTS

Ashnikko – Daisy
~1^∞ (0 Points)

I Monster – I fell asleep amid the flowers
Mack. (0 Points)

Post Malone – Sunflower
Cow Cow (0 Points)

Seal – Kiss From A Rose
CJK (0 Points)


I was expecting just one or two answers for this one, and one of the answers I was expecting but never got was a lesser known hit by Travis called Flowers In The Window. However, most people thought of Sweet Female Attitude for the answer to this, with a few less people giving Nathan Dawe's 2020 hit as another popular one. Saint JHN's Roses was the only other flower to receive points for this round. Liking the variety of plants suggested here. Well done folks.

The original 'Flowers' triumphing *.* that came into my head first despite Nathan's recency and long chart run, glad that happened to work out well! What a tune.

I really wanted to pick Build Me Up Buttercup for that one but thought a recent number 1 would be more sensible.

QUESTION TEN

It's time to turn our attention to Ed Sheeran. These days it is not uncommon for a single he releases to get to the top of the charts, or close to it. There have been times though when a single choice has failed to reach the UK Top 5 singles, and the variety of answers given show that this has happened a few times. Photograph was the most answered song here but there were points given for plenty of other answers.

good I went with Photograph

All downhill for me those last 3 questions. I guess since Photograph missed the Top 10 as well as the Top 5, I didn't even consider it!
