Arctic Monkeys - Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino
I wouldn’t be harsh with this album, I enjoy it in fact. But it is a really unexpected turn in the direction!

Dancing ● 1st Single ● Part II
I wonder will it eventually creep to 100k sales or will stay short of it forever?

Chart Forum Quiz ///// Week 5 ///// POINTLESS
There are a few cases when the same artist occupied both #1 and #2 in the singles chart at the same time. I'm asking you to name that artist and these songs. Edited this question a bit for more clearance. Updated the players list, 9 people submitted their answers so far!

Stop Me From Falling ● 2nd Single
Tbh it's doing its job, the album is selling well, which is all that matters. We all would like some more top-40s from Kylie but in the current climate it's next to impossible even with big push. And it's by far not a foregone conclusion 59p and remixes would be enough for this to go top-40. They should have released the remix for 59p straight away, and even that might not be enough to go top-40.

Yeppp, that's right! And by "charting" you have to chart anywhere in the top-100 in the singles.

Chart Forum Quiz ///// Week 5 ///// POINTLESS
HI EVERYBODY, NICE TO SEE YOU ALL This week I'm hosting the chart forum quiz, and it's gonna be Pointless. The rules are all the same, but just a reminder: 1. There are 12 questions in this quiz, you have to give the answer guessing which of them is going to be the least popular between the players of Buzzjack. 2. A reminder that you must give the correct answer, and as we are playing it in the UK Chart forum, all the questions are about the official UK singles or albums chart (depending on question), unless otherwise stated. "Tricks" with giving the answer from UK sales chart, UK dance chart, UK albums streaming chart, Billboard chart etc. etc. will result in the wrong answer for you. 3. You can PM me the answers until Sunday, May 13th, 5 PM BST. The scoring 1. For every right answer you get as many points as many people gave that same answer, including yours. However, if you give a unique correct answer, you get the big fat zero, i.e. pointless, which gives you some extra advantage. 2. And as usually, for every wrong answer you are fined with the points equal to the number of this round's participants. And here are the questions 1. Name a single that went to #1 which would have spent zero weeks at #1 if Accelerate Chart Ratio hadn’t been applied to the charts. 2. Name a studio Kylie Minogue album which spent more than 3 weeks in the top-10. 3. *sponsored by Campaign for better transport* Name an artist who charted in the singles chart and whose name contains a motor vehicle that is not a car. N.B. That vehicle should be a separate word, ‘Lil YACHTy’ and such won’t count. 4. Name a Buzzjack Song Contest winner song which went top-100 in the official singles charts. Only the main contest winners count; spin-offs, best ofs etc. don’t count. 5. Name a single by a male group which reached the #1 since 2005 till now. N.B. That group must consist of 3 or more people, must only consist of males and the group must not perform on the X-Factor UK with any song. 6. Name a top-100 single from an artist which has made to the top-16 of the BBC Sound of 2018. That single must solely be credited by this artist and not feature any other artists. 7. Name a Dance #1 of 1997 (Dance #1 is determined by Colm of our very own Buzzjack in the respective thread!) 8. Name a single which slid down by exactly one place for 4 consecutive weeks within the top-40 in the single charts. 9. Name a Sugababes single (of any incarnation of its members) which went top-100 but didn’t make the top-10. 10. Name a drum&bass song which went top-20 in the singles chart. 11. Name a #1 album by Arctic Monkeys which spent more than 20 weeks in the top-75. 12. Name an artist whose songs occupied a #1 and a #2 in the singles chart of the same date. Also name these songs.

These were the great questions, really fitting to family fortunes. It was very hard to predict the right question in many many cases, and there were not many runaway answers! Tomorrow I’m putting up the Pointless round, I hope you all enjoy it!

PREDICT: Arctic Monkeys - Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino
Definitely 100k+, maybe even more than that, I won't be surprised by 200k+ at all. And surely a #1.

Chart Forum Quiz: Family Fortunes
This was an incredibly tough round, in some questions I was happy to find *any* right answer. :lol: I'm sure I'll get no less than 3 zero points, maybe even more, so I'm not hopeful for the high placing this time.

Wouldn't Florence already be added given the single was released?

Golden ● Chart Topic
I’ll put a bet on top-15 actually. But even if she falls further down, Kiss Me Once was all the way down to #38 on week 5. Ta-dah! So far Golden seems to be more or less halving the positions of Kiss Me Once, we shall see how it will go further.

TBH ‘Days’ and ‘When We Were Young’ could count as the right answers even if they weren’t deliberately namechecked in that horrible song!
