I can't promise I'll do this every day, but this does sound fun so let's have a go x

 

Round 1: 21

Got Qs 1,2,4,8 and 10 right. Only got Charles Aznavour from the bonuses thanks to those number 1 sessions!

 

Round 2: 12, that was pretty hard oops

Only got 1, 5 and 8 and none of the bonuses, Des'ree impact though :cheeseblock:

 

 

I got a bit flustered with the 3 in 10 as the speed caught me off guard I couldn't think of their names instantly so probably only got one for sure, will hopefully get more used to it tomorrow :lol:

You're Still the One came to mind instantly, I would've known the other two big names but their names didn't come to mind straight away

 

 

 

 

Oops I've done pretty awfully for a second day in a row, where have all the things I actually know gone :kink: (was a bit disappointed that both contestants snubbed Eurovision songs as a bonus category as I feel like I'd have had a chance at that, as it were I went 0 for 6 on the bonus questions whoops)

 

Round 1: 12 (missed

Al Green (-6), Cathy Dennis (-3), 'Daydreamer' (-6), 'When She Was My Girl' (-3), Shanice (-3), Charles Aznavour (-6)

)

Round 2: 9 (missed

Neil Diamond (-3), Atomic Kitten (-6), Zig & Zag (-3), 1987 (-3), Dee C Lee (-6), 'Every Day Hurts' (-3), Pink Floyd (-6)

)

3 in 10: 1/3 (

'Man! I Feel Like A Woman!'

)

 

From round 1

the David Cassidy bonus was a very annoying near miss as I thought 'Daydream' - it was a complete guess of just any David Cassidy song title that I thought I remembered though so can't complain too much :lol: - but there wasn't really anything there that I was kicking myself over, just not well suited to my knowledge here. 'I Love My Smile' is a Pixie Lott song in my head and I hate this x

 

 

From round 2

I also confused Atomic Kitten with B*Witched oops, but my guess for Pink Floyd was a bit further off as I punted at them being The Monkees lmao. Never heard of Dee C Lee, I only know the Girls Aloud version and obviously knew that wasn't the answer. I was 4 years early for the year.

 

 

I should have been able to also recall

'That Don't Impress Me Much'

for 3 in 10 but I don't think I'd have been able to get a third one.

Round 1: 21 - didn't get

Desmond Dekker and The Aces (d'oh, I know they did a song called 007 but didn't use the "7" connection) 1990 (changed my mind in the last second to 1991, oops!), The Magnificent Seven (d'oh again!), Suzi Quatro

- think that's my lowest score so far!

 

Round 2: 33 - didn't get

Lulu (knew it wasn't Nirvana)

(the contestant is no relation to me btw)

 

Three in ten: 3

This Love, She Will Be Loved, Memories

 

got the year one year out round 2 today, and misnamed the 3 in 10 one title option as Telephone, got the other 2. oops!

Welcome to the thread, Chez :hi: :heart: I think you will appreciate the

Daft Punk

question today

 

Round 1: 24 (didn't get:

Desmond Dekker & The Aces, The Magnificent Seven, Suzi Quatro

) - all went downhill with a

movie

question -_- :kink:

Round 2: 30 (didn't get:

Lulu - I only know the Nirvana cover :(, A Flock of Seagulls

)

Three-in-Ten: 3

(She Will Be Loved, This Love, Moves Like Jagger)

 

Round 1 : 33 Didn't get

Desmond Decker

 

Round 2 : 21 Didn't get

Lulu, the year, Blondie, Jean Genie

 

 

I got four questions in a row wrong in round 2.

 

I only got

Payphone

for the 3 in 10. I was the same as the contestant and gave up as soon as I heard which group it was.

Ooh today went a lot better.

 

Round 1 - 27

Got two of the bonuses with Kenny Rogers and Magnificent Seven! *.* Only got the year question, reggae act and Suzi Quatro one wrong

 

Round 2 - 21

I'm not massively clued up on early Bowie, so missed the bonuses bar the Mick Jagger question. Also got the Flock of Seagulls one wrong, instantly assumed I Ran! I did indeed appreciate Daft Punk coming up <3

 

 

Three in 10 - 2 (guy could've at least tried jeez x)

This Love, She Will Be Loved and...Harder to Breathe for some reason which wasn't top 10 :') Think I was too in the zone of their first album to forget that

 

Round 1 - 24

Round 2 - 36

Didn't get the year

 

 

Three in ten - blew the chance of Champions League

Round 1: 12 :(

Didn’t get: Desmond Dekker (6), 1990, Kenny Rogers (6), Higher Love, The Magnificent Seven (6), Suzi Quattro

 

 

Round 2: 15

Didn’t get: Lulu (6), Denis, Jean Genie (6), Wishing, Mick Jagger (6)

 

 

3 in 10:

This Love, She Will Be Loved, Makes Me Wonder

 

Better scores again today, phew!

 

Round 1: 21 (missed

Desmond Dekker & The Aces (-6), 1990 (-3), The Magnificent Seven (-6), Suzi Quatro (-3)

)

Round 2: 21 (missed

Lulu (-6), 2007 (-3), 'The Jean Genie' (-6), 'Wishing (If I Had A Photograph Of You)' (-3)

)

3 in 10: 3/3 (

'Makes Me Wonder', 'Moves Like Jagger', 'One More Night'

)

 

Bar a better guess at the year (I was 5 years late) round 1 couldn't have gone better there for my knowledge. Think I could have got 27 in round 2 - was just 1 year late on the year question (

and that should have been an easy one oops, I forgive myself for missing pre-Y2K years but no excuse for this

) and then

I remembered the A Flock Of Seagulls song had the word 'photograph' in the title but alas that was all. If the contestant got 1 point for his half answer can I claim like half a point for that? :lol: also as a couple of others have said, the only cover of that Bowie song that I know is the Nirvana one but of course knew that was a couple of decades out

.

 

Easy 3 in 10 today.

Albeit awful

.

 

Loved the appearance of a question about

'Lovely Day'

:wub:

 

Three in 10 - 2 (guy could've at least tried jeez x)

This Love, She Will Be Loved and...Harder to Breathe for some reason which wasn't top 10 :') Think I was too in the zone of their first album to forget that

 

Any top 75 hit is a valid answer so you did get 3 here! I think Ken just only reads out top 10s as examples.

Round 1: 30 - didn't get

The Moody Blues (guessed Yes, oops!), 1975 (guessed 1971)

 

 

Round 2: 33 - didn't get the year

(like the contestant, I was 1 year out with 1983), NKOTB (initial thought was Bros, then the contestant beat me to it)

 

 

Three in ten: 2

Hold Me Close, Oh What A Circus, then went completely blank

 

Round 1: 33 (didn't get:

1975 (3 years out), Aretha Franklin

)

Round 2: 36 (didn't get:

1982 (4 years out

)

Three-in-Ten: 3

(A Winter's Tale, Rock On, Gonna Make You A Star)

 

 

If only today's second contestant got the

Eurovision

category, not that I was complaining about what they actually got - perfect for me! :wub:

 

Not my best day with the years :lol: but a good one otherwise *.*

round 1: doh! 2 wrong

couldn't remember Ricky Wilson's bloody surname. And does anybody remember those 3 Ronan Keating records or is it just me?

:o :lol:

 

good choice of track in between, One Night In Bangkok, Abba and Tony Head's singing brother together.

 

round 2: Got the lot thanks to a Specialist round that couldnt have been better for me....! :lol:

 

easy 3 in 10 for me again, got 6 inside 10 seconds, great under-rated pop star.

Rock On is still awesome, City Lights epic, Gonna Make You A Star great fun and though I never did latin I can sing the intro to Oh What A Circus! No idea what it means though.

:lol:

Round 1: 33 (didn't get:

1975 (3 years out), Aretha Franklin

)

Round 2: 36 (didn't get:

1982 (4 years out

)

Three-in-Ten: 3

(A Winter's Tale, Rock On, Gonna Make You A Star)

 

 

If only today's second contestant got the

Eurovision

category, not that I was complaining about what they actually got - perfect for me! :wub:

 

Not my best day with the years :lol: but a good one otherwise *.*

 

wow! :yahoo:

Round 1 : 24 Didn't get

Natalie Imbruglia, Lenny Kravitz, Ricky Wilson, Ronan Keating

 

Round 2 : 33 Didn't get

Help

 

 

Round 2 was better for me, I said

A Hard Day's Night for the Beatles' film

 

 

3 in 10 : 3

Rock On, Hold Me Close, A Winter's Tale

 

Finishing the week strongly with matching my high score to date in both rounds, 6/6 on the bonus questions today! The

Beatles film

admittedly was an educated guess but I did know the other 5. Flop on the 3 in 10 though whoops -

I recalled he had a couple of #1s but alas drew a blank on what they were called

.

 

Round 1: 30 (missed

1975 (-3), Aretha Franklin (-3), Ronan Keating (-3)

)

Round 2: 30 (missed

Brotherhood Of Man (-3), 1982 (-3), New Kids On The Block (-3)

)

3 in 10: 1/3 (

'A Winter's Tale'

)

 

8 years early for the first year and 2 years late for the second, grr.

Aretha and Ronan were both 'oh yeah!' moments but alas couldn't pluck them out of my memory. Brotherhood Of Man was a bit of an embarrassing miss though, I confused them with Bucks Fizz :ph34r:

 

 

Also an education moment from today -

'Forever Autumn' is yet another song I remember well from being on my mum's playlist but had no idea what it was called or that it was a Justin Hayward song! Great song though <3

 

 

And have to love getting questions about

'Blue Monday' and 'Together In Electric Dreams'

too :wub:

Round 1: 27 points

Didn’t get: The Moody Blues (6), 1975, Aretha Franklin

 

 

Round 2: 18 points

Didn’t get: Real Love (6) 1982, Ringo Start (6), Help (6)

 

 

3 in 10:

A Winters Tale, Hold Me Close, Oh What a Circus

 

Great scores all round today :cheer:

 

forgot to mention that

David Essex

was my nan's celebrity crush :lol: but my knowledge of his music was independent of that information, lol.

Round 1 - 27

missed the first bonus but got the next two, missed the year one and Aretha Franklin

 

Round 2 - 33 *.*

Managed to get all the bonus ones! I can thank the album listening sessions for getting Real Love and Help! was a guess but I figured it was around that time period, only missed the year (again) and the boyband one, I almost said New Kids on the Block but the contestant got it quicker than me so not counting it

 

 

Three in 10 - 1, oops that's a comedown

A Winter's Tale was the only one I know, mistook Hold Me Closer for Come Closer and wasn't sure of anything else, I get him mixed up with David Cassidy
