November 18, 20231 yr I’ll give a hint and say that the main connection is chart related. Ah, I'll consign the tenuous link I was coming up with to the bin then!
November 20, 20231 yr Author ANGRY PM SENT Your PM made me chuckle. :lol: 2 and a bit days left and 7 entrants so far!
November 22, 20231 yr Author Up to a dozen entrants! Officially this is the last day though I’m not sure how or when I’ll get round to the results at the moment.
November 22, 20231 yr Author I have scored the answers so far, but I will accept any additional answers from those who have already submitted until I close the quiz. As it stands 2 clips have been identified correctly by all participants, while only 2/12 participants have identified the least correctly answered clip.
November 22, 20231 yr I'm going to struggle to get anything in today. If there's an extension I may manage!
November 22, 20231 yr Finally got my entry in! A couple more came to me last-minute but I'm sure I'll be annoyed at some of the ones I didn't get. (and whilst I'm here, please do take part in Blankety Blank in the Lounge!)
November 22, 20231 yr Author I'm going to struggle to get anything in today. If there's an extension I may manage! How much would you need? Thinking to not give too much now the next quiz is going.
November 22, 20231 yr Answers sent - probably going to kick myself for some of the ones I haven't got!
November 22, 20231 yr Answers sent - probably going to kick myself for some of the ones I haven't got!and I sent some corrections after a last-minute brainwave!
November 22, 20231 yr Author Up to 16 participants! And now we’ve managed to give no clip a 100% success rate. :lol:
November 23, 20231 yr Author Thanks very much to the 20 participants! :banana: I’m closing this now. I’ll use the same thread for the results and kick off shortly, going from best answered to least well answered!
November 23, 20231 yr Ah I missed the deadline for this sorry, will still check the results to see how many I would have got.
November 23, 20231 yr Author And so with 19/20 fully correct answers and 1 partially correct: Number 23: Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal 26/11/1988 Michael Jackson Smooth Criminal 8 12-{8}-9-11-14-13-12-20-36-57-28R(1066)-13-20-33-44-58-71->17 h_D3VFfhvs4 Only a #8 hit but one of his most iconic hits which reached the Top 20 again via the 2006 re-release, and again when he died in 2009. I guess its lowly peak was down to it being the 6th single from the "Bad" album - imagine releasing 5 singles from an album while keeping this in your back pocket. 4 points: uptempo_owww!, DalekTurret32, Danvember, Mangø, chrissmith276, Bjork, dandy*, King Rollo, Roba., LewisGT, paulgilb, Riser, PeteFromLeeds, Ansel, jimwatts, Rush, rio309, Sarah, ~1^∞ 2 points for correct artist: conorw And no fewer than 14 of you correctly guessed that this would be the best identified clip so pick up an additional 2 points: DalekTurret32, Danvember, Mangø, chrissmith276, Bjork, dandy*, King Rollo, Roba., LewisGT, conorw, jimwatts, Rush, rio309, Sarah
November 23, 20231 yr So many guessing this for the most identified song! It was the clear choice to me, a very recognisable riff especially thanks to its 2 popular versions. (Also, feels like an unusual time of day for results / anything on this site to be happening - it's almost as if you've joined me in Australia :kink:)
November 23, 20231 yr Author Next up with 18/20 correct answers: Number 25: Chris Isaak - Wicked Game 24/11/1990 Chris Isaak Wicked Game 10 50-24-11-{10}-12-11-19-22-37-62->10 jd-qI62gNJM This was Chris's 1st and biggest hit, and another one that feels so much bigger than its peak. Clearly that sultry opening guitar solo, part of which I used for the clip, is very well remembered. 4 points: uptempo_owww!, DalekTurret32, Danvember, Mangø, chrissmith276, Bjork, dandy*, King Rollo, Roba., LewisGT, paulgilb, Riser, PeteFromLeeds, Ansel, jimwatts, Rush, rio309, Sarah
November 23, 20231 yr Author (Also, feels like an unusual time of day for results / anything on this site to be happening - it's almost as if you've joined me in Australia :kink:) Hehe I'm flying to Hong Kong tomorrow evening so will be closer to you than usual! So trying to get some results done before work otherwise think I won't get them finished before my holiday. (May still not get them finished.)
