Since we're a music forum, I think the quizzes have always been music-related rather than books or movies. Personally I don't think I'd be any good at anything else so I'd be less inclined to take part. But it's up to the mods I guess!

Didn't @Roba. say he could host on the 3rd Nov? I can't see him in the list in either here or the lounge though!

Was obviously expecting Dave to smash on Spotify but very impressed to see Lily's whole album charting too although I do wonder at this stage whether it's just lots of curiosity streams given the subject of the lyrics, or whether it will actually hold up throughout the week. Time will tell!

They've been quietly releasing the bops over the last year or two. 'S.I.N.G.L.E.', 'Makeup Sex' and 'Trouble' were all great! We demand an album.

It's nothing groundbreaking and very them by numbers but I'll take it. Any news on an album?

I've heard this quite a lot now but it's still a bit pants!

What's an Omar Rudberg please?

'Sex Is Power' and 'Key To The Castle' both slap! Let's not pretend this isn't where it belongs

Yeah it's not bad actually. Is this a new era?

Oh wow those are some BRUTAL lyrics! I can't remember the last time anyone spilled so much tea on one album! If I'm being honest I wasn't totally blown away on first listen but I will give it a second spin soon and see if it clicks more (it probably will).

I feel like the Lewis song will be downgraded to a promo track, if it isn't already

Quite like this! Straight to B-list on R1 as well.

'Goodbye' has been added to the R1 playlist today. Decent choice of single!

The weakest of the three so far.

Not as good as the first two, this is back to being proper Lewis by numbers.

I wonder why they didn't go for physicals on week one, she could definitely got a high chart placing. Haven't listened to the album yet but looking forward to doing so this afternoon!

Great song, that's 3 from 3 this era. Bring on the album!

Quite a busy week this week!

Shame we have a few empty weeks, maybe someone could step in and host something? I can't remember who previously did the emojis quiz but that was lots of fun!

A little bit of a drop off from the last album I think. Possibly around 60k. Although I find these things are always hard to predict! @danG 100k+ is a very bold prediction

I do like 'Carry You Home' but for it to be top 10 in the airplay chart all these months later is laughable! I blame Heart. Yeah it's really bizarre to see that there!

So do I get my wooden spoon in the post then...? Yeah, this theme really was not my cup of tea, although I did discover a couple of great tracks while having to sit through some absolute.... songs that were not to my taste, let's say. But then clearly my entry was also not to other people's taste either oh well, onwards and upwards!

While I am really enjoying Bonkers, I can kinda see the reasons for the negative reception to it!
