Did think going for Chance was a good bet so.. ok with it being in the top 10 lowest picks there!

5. People with the first name 'David' who have been credited on at least one Top 40 single

 

 

David time! This was another one where there were some fairly obscure picks waiting for you if you could get them. The Top 2 were David Bowie, the first David I thought of when writing this question, and David Guetta, the second. The fact they got the same score probably says a bit about the demographic of Buzzjack! Below that the scores peter out fairly quickly, with a good number of pointless answers - although some of those exploit a sort-of loophole of people who have the first name David but weren't credited as one (most being some variety of Dave). Some interesting picks in the incorrect section as well!

Oooooo my first (and possibly only) appearance in the best guessers list

Oops I misunderstood the question somehow there and just left it at David only :lol: oh well.

d4vd would've been one of my answers too. Again, I thought it would be an incorrect answer.

Didn’t know many for that one, think I only put four answers, luckily I knew Baddiel. Will definitely take that

6. Songs in the Top 25 of the Official Chart's 2022 End of Year list

 

 

Now this was a tricky one! I deliberately included this sort of question as, if you didn't have photographic memory, it was definitely a choice between playing it safe with a song you knew had to be in there, or risk a song which might not be. The other thing to note with this one is the fact that the earlier a song is released in the year, the better the chance of it making it high up in the End of Year. The Top 2 ono the votes were also the Top 2 in the EOY in that order, but after that it gets a bit out of kilter, as Afraid to Feel only reached #9! The song at number 25, I'm Good (Blue), got nine votes for it, a lot more than a number of the songs above it. Interestingly the song at #26, Burna Boy's 'Last Last', got no votes whatsoever! However it was the song at number 59 in the End of Year that tripped most people up - sadly a lot of weeks at number 1 isn't enough for a place if it's released late in the year, as Taylor Swift fans now find out!

Not me being really proud of myself on this one and still getting at least 8 less than Conor :drama:

You got 11, so only just off the list!

That’s three in a row where I’ve chosen the same as one other person :lol: hope I can get at least one unique final answer by the end.

oh, I'm doing a lot better than I though I would!

Was torn between down under and make me feel good for my guess, glad I made the right choice

7. Top 10 singles containing the word 'Dancing'

 

 

Runaway winner alert! Unsurprisingly, ABBA's classing Dancing Queen tops the list here by quite a margin, ahead of Toploader's Dancing In The Moonlight. One unforseen issue here was that people would just write song titles when two songs with that title had charted - in those situations I went for the higher charting song unless the artist was specifically picked, hence the high score for Calum Scott's 'Dancing On My Own' and the low score for Robyn's original. Well done to the two people who managed to guess pointless answers!

 

The other hiccup here was songs with the word 'Dancin' in instead of 'Dancing', specifically that song by the Scissor Sisters. Sadly I did specifically say 'Dancing' here so I've marked that as incorrect I'm afraid!

I'm pleased to get a pointless answer with Dave Gahan who had some solo hits. :)

OMG at me not paying attention to the words ‘top 10’ :cry:

I initially skimmed over the top 10 part of the question and immediately thought of ‘The Politics of Dancing’ but thankfully noticed before moving on to the next question :lol: oops at quite a few going for PSBs

Yep straight to a super high one there lmao. Did try to think of some obscure ish type ones but not quick enough sadly.

8. Albums which have spent over 400 weeks on the UK Albums chart

 

 

Ooh good, I don't need to change the YouTube video for this one! :kink: ABBA and Queen take the Top 2 here, as well as being the two albums with the most weeks on the chart - although in the opposite order! Beyond these (and Rumours) the numbers begin to wind down again. Queen's second Greatest Hits gets a lot less votes, and as well as the pointless answers here, two albums didn't get guessed at all - 'Greatest Hits' by Foo Fighters and 'Greatest Hits' by Guns n Roses (I say that, although given how many guesses of 'Greatest Hits' without an artist I got, someone probably meant them!)

 

The elephant in the room with this question though is the incorrect answer that got a whopping 21 guesses!!! Sadly Adele's 21 is 16 weeks away from the 400 mark, and so unfortunately those who guessed her will just have to wish that this quiz was held sometime in early 2024. Adele's other albums got reasonable numbers of votes as well, as did Ed Sheeran's Divide (on 342 weeks and counting).

I also put 21 in my guesses so thankfully didn't go for it in the final answer and chose Amy!

Not a great choice there - I was initially going with In The Lonely Hour, but wasn't quite sure if it had amassed 400 weeks given it's only 9 years old.
