well done Jim on 39, hooray and well done Bre on a new GH best score 30 is pretty impressive!

 

I had a go at TTTT today and still didnt get a full house in either round, but I was minor pleased I got what sort of house Ed Sheeran sang about, considering I've never bought it and heard it about once I think. There was a very nice young man called Stephen on Ken's TV Popmaster episode 2 who almost won - he knew a lot of old stuff! I reckon he must have memorised half the entire Guinness Book of UK chart hits!

 

Round 1: 30 (oh no I got beaten! :o :lol: Didnt know

Wicked and said Think before I thought about Respect for Aretha

) How ironic!

 

Round 2: 39 (I do like me movie tracks)

 

3 in 10: 2 only! (

Mysterious Girl, Flava

)

Round 1 : 15 Didn't get

)

Round 2: 12 (missed

)

3 in 10: 3/3 (

'Flava', 'I Feel You', 'Mysterious Girl'

) - lol this being the artist I finally get 3/3 for again x

 

2 years early on round 1 and 1 year late on round 2. Shame neither contestant took the 21st century hits bonus, although getting 2/3 of the musicals bonuses was better than I expected. Should have got

Bobby Darin

from round 2 but didn't have a clue for the other two -

although I guessed Alison Moyet for the lolz on the first bonus which was technically half right lmao. Also got the Annie Lennox question just before it xx

.

'Devil Gate Drive'

but I don't think that's close enough to count, wouldn't have known a third anyway

 

7 years late on the second year. Otherwise pretty happy with that by my standards although a little annoyed at missing

Jane Wiedlin - I knew the last name started with a W but it didn't come to mind in time grr

3 in 10: 0/3 - was trying and failing to remember the ones from the #1 album sessions but there'd only have been 2 of them anyway

 

6 years late for the first year and 1 year early for the second. Pretty bad bonus rounds for me although I managed to guess the last one because

I thought it sounded like 'Lonely This Christmas'

.

 

Thanks to BJSC for the

Colonel Abrams song title, as a dance remake of it was sent there a while back

! From the rest I think I should have got

R.E.M. and Clannad

but otherwise just a lot of knowledge gaps here.

In a reversal of fortune to Jade and Jim I did better in the first round (39) and less well in Round 2 (33 -

Nine Inch Nails

swear Ive never heard it in my life - even though I obv have - and I got one word wrong in the

HearSay title, not "Heart" but "Love"

). Always the 21st century questions that get me :lol:

 

3 in 10:

3 years early for the first year. Happy I managed to guess
