In question 5, do you need the name of the artiste or just the song or both?
To Sheep or Not to Sheep, that is the question.

For some maybe just being correct - I see you question 4

Question 4 is definitely my weakest area. I could be in trouble if it is PEEHS!

How on earth would anyone know question 4 without googling?

Gosh that would have been even worse - I figure we are all in the same boat I'm not sure if the song I picked was released that year it might have been slightly earlier or later, but I hope it would have featured on some copy of Now...

There's been a few correct and a few wrong ones so far, think it's been all guesses so far!

Yeah, the second part I can do no problem, but the first step? Not a chance.

Question 4 annoyed me so much because I listen to the sort of music that would have ended up on a Now album around that time all the time but I definitely didn't get a right answer.

I've not looked, so cannot confirm or deny!
20-11-2021, 06:48 PM
2000 was the era of a certain type of band so I took a guess based on that tenuous logic.
20-11-2021, 06:51 PM
A few answers were on 46 or 45, so depending how I feel tomorrow night, and if we end up PEEHS I might give leeway

If my guess is correct, I'll be very surprised! My kids were young in 2000
