[Colin Zeal EFM]

1. Name three acts who have had number one hits in the 80's, 90's and 2000's.

 

2. Which group have hit number one three times with totally different line-ups??

[Webbo MFI]

1. a) Madonna (?)

 

2. Oasis???

 

[Webbo MFI]

1 Robbie Williams??

[Webbo MFI]

1 c) Queen??

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Madonna is the only one correct so far.

 

As for the second question - it's TOTALLY different line-ups. i.e. not one single person the same in any of the line-ups.

[Rob_the_Saint]

Some girlie band I suspect. They're always changing their line-ups every few seconds.

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Nope.

 

I'm going home in about half an hour, so I'll put the answers on then if no-one's got them.

 

Can't see myself making the 1,000-mark this morning, but I'm staying at my Best Man's gaff tonight, and he's on the net, so I'm determined to be number one before I leave!!

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Sod it - I'll post the answers this evening.

 

Take care.

See ya!!

1. I think we could be looking at:

Micheal Jackson, U2, Cliff Richard(hope I am wrong there), Bon Jovi (Now we're going in to the realms of hatred)....

 

2. Was thinking of fleetwood mac, genesis, the drifters or the yardbirds on this one but really not sure..

[Laz]

How about the England World Cup sqaud for number 2. If so, then I guess the Scotland/Ireland equivilent as another example.

[Chubbhead EFM]

for number 2 what about guns'n'roses? they change all the time.

either that or some crappy 70s/80s pop group like bay city rollers or something

 

[Rob_the_Saint]

No. 1 - Kylie, and possibly Queen as well.

 

No. 2 - I'm on the case...

[Laz]

Everyone, I've spoken to CZ and he confirms my answer is correct: England World Cup Squad.

Various Artists

 

ie

 

Perfect Day

Do They Know Its Christmas Time

Ferry Aid

 

 

[Rob_the_Saint]

Objection!!

 

Didn't only 'Back Home' (1970) and 'World in Motion' (1990) get to number one?

 

The 1982 ditty 'This time we'll get it right' had about the same success as the football team.

[Colin Zeal EFM]

No objection. It's not England "World Cup" squad. Just the England football team. Hence, 1996's Three Lions.

 

First question - Kylie and Madonna are correct. The other was U2.

 

Various artists doesn't count. Only Perfect Day was officially by "Various Artists". Besides, some of the people on Band Aid were the same as on Ferry Aid.
