My quiz proved to be fiendishly difficult. This evening, I'll reveal the answers to the first ten questions.

 

13 people entered. There are three points for each correct answer and I've given one point for wrong answers that fitted well, amused me, or were well thought out.

1. Mind The Gap

 

The Sound Of The Underground by Girls Aloud

 

 

Correct, 3 points - Mango, dandy*, jimwatts

 

Going Underground - Dobbo, rio309, JulianT, Ansel

 

You all get 1 point as you were on the right lines. It's the sound of the underground as "mind the gap" is something you hear when you're on the Underground.

 

Baby Jump - chrissmith276, PeteFromLeeds 1 point

 

Don't Stand So Close To Me - LewisGT, ~1^∞ 1 point

 

Space Oddity - Bjork 0 points

 

 

2. Reversed Numbness

 

Needles And Pins by The Searchers

 

 

A feeling of numbness is sometimes described as pins and needles. If you reverse these words you get needles and pins.

 

Correct, 3 points - Mango

 

Spice Girls - Spice Up Your Life (Both Getting More Feeling, and the phonetic reverse of Numbness is similar to Cinnamon) - ~1^∞

 

I like how well thought out this was, you get 1 point.

Number 1 - Dobbo

Feel It - chrissmith276, jimwatts

Bring Me To Life - rio309

I Gotta Feeling - JulianT, Ansel

I Feel Fine - PeteFromLeeds

Feels - Bjork

Back To Life - dandy*

Oh I would never have got that in a million years

3. The dancefloor needs a good clean

 

Dirtee Disco by Dizzee Rascal

 

 

Correct, 3 points - chrissmith276, Mango, JulianT, Ansel, PeteFromLeeds, Bjork, LewisGT, dandy*

 

0 points

 

Evacuate The Dancefloor - Dobbo, ~1^∞

Blood On The Dancefloor - rio309, jimwatts

 

Good answers, but a cryptic clue would not use a key word from the song title so I can't give you a point.

Nice start with getting Q1. I had a feeling Q3 was something else - still it was also my guess at most correctly answered, and it's got the most so far!

2. Reversed Numbness

 

 

Feel It - chrissmith276, jimwatts

 

At least Jim and I were on the same wrong line!

I didn't know that was a rule, should've revisited the Dance/Disco themed singles, I saw Dirtee Disco but I already put Evacuate the Dancefloor and it made too much sense

 

I had no idea if SUYL would be the answer, my reasoning felt too elaborate to be true and too coincidental to be false lol, I enjoyed spotting the coincidence tho, it's a different type of satisfying getting the adjacent point!

I am impressed at the insane logic on that Spice Girls answer!

4. What Price Is Brian?

 

How Much Is That Doggie In The Window? by Lita Roza

 

 

Brian is the dog in Family Guy. I wanted to choose a dog with a human name to make it less obvious, rather than something like Snoopy or Scooby Doo.

 

Correct, 3 points - Mango, JulianT, Ansel, dandy*

 

KWS - Game Boy (Brian Price is the name of several athletes, so among people with the surname Price, Brian could be described as a Boy who plays a Game) - ~1^∞

 

Another well thought out answer gets you a point.

 

Beach Boys - Good Vibrations (related to this being the most expensive song to record ever?) - Bjork

 

One point for you as well

 

0 points

 

Real To Me - Dobbo

Price Tag - chrissmith276

Love Don't Cost A Thing - rio309, PeteFromLeeds

Three Coins In The Fountain - jimwatts

I wasn't confident on that one so that's a nice surprise

Ah, they start to make sense now! Went for 'I Feel Fine' in the second one as the opposite of being numb is being able to feel fine ^_^

5. Street Graffiti

 

Writing's On The Wall by Sam Smith

 

 

Correct, 3 points - Dobbo, rio309, Mango, PeteFromLeeds, Bjork, dandy*, ~1^∞

 

0 points

 

Paint The Town Red - chrissmith276, Ansel, LewisGT, jimwatts

Blurred Lines - JulianT

I though tthe reversed of numbness was feeling something so Feels made sense to me

I spent ages trying to work out how 'street' could mean 'price' because I was so convinced that 'graffiti' was likely to be 'tag'

6. Not the best time to visit the beach

 

The Tide Is High by Blondie or Atomic Kitten

 

 

Correct, 3 points - chrissmith276, rio309, JulianT, PeteFromLeeds, LewisGT, dandy*, jimwatts

 

Tsunami (Jump) - Ansel

January - Bjork

 

Good answers, 1 point each

 

0 points

 

Rain On Me - Dobbo

Cold Water - Mango, ~1^∞

Another one right ^_^ was pretty confident of that once I'd thought of it.

Can't wait to see the array of answers for the next one!

7. What the Duke of Edinburgh said to the Queen

 

I'm Walking Behind You by Eddie Fisher with Sally Sweetland

 

 

This is the first question with no correct answers. On their walkabouts, The Duke Of Edinburgh would always walk two paces behind the Queen so she would get all the limelight and attention.

 

1 point for these funny answers:

 

I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor - Dobbo, Ansel

You Won't Find Another Fool Like Me - chrissmith276

If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next - rio309

Do Ya Think I'm Sexy - Mango

Let's Dance - JulianT

I Love You - PeteFromLeeds

I'll Stand By You - Bjork

Queen Of My Heart - jimwatts

The Edge Of Heaven/Where Did Your Heart Go - ~1^∞

Haha I love rio's answer there! There were a bunch of funny ones I was thinking of including Mango's answer!

8. Suits You Sir!

 

You Wear It Well by Rod Stewart

 

 

I didn't think this was one that would get no correct answers.

 

Do Ya Think I'm Sexy - rio309 - 1 point for the correct artist

 

Spitting Image - The Chicken Song (Chic (fashionable) & Ken (Ken & Kenneth)) - ~1^∞ - 1 point for another well thought out answer

Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polkadot Bikini - Mango
