[David Holden]

No and no, but not necessarily in that order.

If you can't do it when you're young, when can you do it?

[Harry J Allstars]

The album with the longest title to reach the US chart is Fiona Apple's 90-word When The Pawn Hits The Conflicts He Thinks Like A King What He Knows Throws The Blows When He Goes To The Fight And He'll Win The Whole Thing Fore He Enters The Ring There's No Baby To Batter When Your Mind is Your Might So When You Go Solo. You Hold Your Own Hand And Remember That Depth Is The Greatest Of Heights And If You Know Where You Stand. Then You'll Know Where To Land And If You Fall It Won't Matter, Cuz You Know That You're Right, released on Nov. 9, 1999. The title is a poem Apple wrote after reading a bad review of her work.

 

Obviously it says US chart but is it also the UK chart?

[David Holden]

You might want to try reading the question.

Nice. Erm...

 

Ok, If you spelled out all the numbers, what number would you reach before you used an "A"?

[David Holden]

One Thousand

[chris blanc]

What about One Hundred and one?

[David Holden]

Alright then one and a half

[chris blanc]

What about one and a quarter?

[David Holden]

What about it?

[chris blanc]

that's even smaller!

 

I assume that you're right anyway Dave.

[Bald_Eagle]
