Î knew that one too thought it was an ok question

 

Didn't do very well today, 24 and 24, too many oldies questions, especially the Motown ones

 

Didn't get the 3 either, most difficult I've heard so far, I couldn't name you one

In terms of 3-in-10s I think the toughest one for me when catching up was Deacon Blue (could only name 1) and agree with those who said ABBA was the easiest so far :lol:

 

Jade, I think you'd like

Wordy Rappinghood by The Tom Tom Club

It's quite quirky.

Ooh thanks for that, gave it a spin and definitely appreciated the wackiness :music:

Deacon Blue would be easy for me, was quite the fan, just tried and I can name all their singles in chronological order :D

Round 1: 21

 

Holly Johnson (-3), 1991 (guessed 1990) (-3), Sarah Brightman (-3), Small Faces (-6), Ocean Colour Scene (-3)

 

 

Round 2: 27

 

Donna Summer (-3), Lulu (-6), Egyptian Reggae (-3)

 

Round 1: 36 (didn't get:

Ocean Colour Scene

)

Round 2: 33 (didn't get:

’State of Independence’ - annoying miss, ‘Egyptian Reggae’

)

Three-in-Ten: 3

(Round Round, Freak Like Me, About You Now)

 

 

The final question on R1 preventing me from 39 once again! :drama: some of the knowledge in that one was very recently acquired, I knew

’Starship Trooper’

due to a recent retro TOTP airing and I only knew the

Holly Johnson

song title from one of the weekly Album #1s sessions! The

singles chart #1s

questions were right up my street. <3

 

Very happy with that today!

^we should play together cos the one you missed in R1 was one of the very few I knew from R1

but I knew I was gonna fail when I heard the theme

 

so I got 15 for R1 and 30 for R2

 

final question was borderline too easy, I managed to name 20 :D

 

Round 1 : 33 Didn't get

Small Faces

 

Round 2 : 15 Didn't get

Lulu, the year, Gladys Knight, Kaiser Chiefs, C&C Music, Mumford & Sons

 

 

I knew most of the ones I didn't get for round 2 but couldn't think of the answer in time.

^we should play together cos the one you missed in R1 was one of the very few I knew from R1

Haha yes filling in each other's blanks, hoping for my 90s knowledge to improve in time as the TOTP repeats cover more and more of the decade!

 

Today's artist was easy for me too and a good one for the contestant *.*

ooh everyone did very well today! :yahoo:

 

I got the year wrong on round 2, doh! I got the 3 in 10 though my mind went blank at first! The difference between doing it at home and on the radio is quite huge though, as they both found out today :lol: Always say "I hope to get more than 9" and cross your fingers :lol:

Round 1: 36 (didn't get:

Nick Kamen - guessed the same as the contestant

)

Round 2: 30 (didn't get:

Crash Test Dummies country, The Tourists

)

Three-in-Ten: 3

(You're Beautiful, 1973, Goodbye My Lover)

 

 

Are you kidding me, the last question prevented me from a 39 AGAIN :lol: I thought the stars were going to align today when I even got the

Alvin Stardust

question right, after missing this artist before :cry: I have the

first U.K. Now album

to thank for knowing the year in R1!

Unlucky, Jade. I didn't know it either.

 

Round 1 : 27 Didn't get

The Hollies, Ronan Keating, Nick Kamen

 

Round 2 : 27 Didn't Get

Crash Test Dummies, the year, Kula Shaker

 

well done both! I got the year wrong round 2 - One Year Out as usual :D and I didnt get time to name 2 of the 3 in 10's before she'd banged them off. I would have got 2 I think....

Round 1: 24 (didn't get:

Take That - really should've got this but was too slow before she'd answered, 10cc, Los Bravos, Culture Club

)

Round 2: 15 (didn't get:

)

The Proclaimers

today.

Round 1 : 24 Didn't get

Los Bravos, the year, Sam Sparrow

Round 1 : 24 Didn't get

Bobby Brown, the year, Chris Spedding, Mariah Carey

 

Round 2 : 15 Didn't get

Elvis, Sheryl Crow, the year, Charlie Rich, Good Charlotte

When We Was Fab, my Jeff Lynne knowledge helping me on the third one

 

Round 1: 21

 

2001 (-3), Chris Spedding (-6), Toyah (-3), Suzi Quatro (-6) - and Mariah Carey was a lucky guess at the end

 

Round 2: 21

 

Elvis Presley (-6), Sheryl Crow (-3), Charlie Rich (-6), Brother Beyond (-3)

 

oh I almost got a perfect score last Friday, end up on 36, failed the last question about

Tourists

 

I know the band but couldn't recall the name of the single

Round 1: 9 (didn't get:

The Maisonettes, 1985 - one year out, Genesis, David Bowie, Deodato, The Nolans, Dawn Penn

)

Round 2: 21 (didn't get:

The Who, Tears For Fears, Jigsaw

)

Three-in-Ten: 3

(Bleeding Love, A Moment Like This, Footprints In The Sand)

 

 

Round 1 was a disaster :lol: got the first two so that was a false sense of security! Recognised both the

Maisonettes

and

Dawn Penn

songs but had no idea on the artist names

 

Round 2 better but not particularly spectacular either, another day of failing the bonus questions :kink:
