YAY I Got to one of henks tunes... before the only songs I knew were taken....

For the record I know N46 and O56 too...

This one is harder Henk. Glad I got here for some of the easier tunes (having said that...I'd better get them correct).

M50  The Show Must Go On - Leo Sayer
N46   Wonderful World - Sam Cooke
N47    World - Bee Gees
N50    Lay Back In The Arms of Someone - Smokie

This one is harder Henk. Glad I got here for some of the easier tunes (having said that...I'd better get them correct).

That's okay...you took mine with the America tune!  ;)

Then we are even.... I was just glad I knew as many as i did.. I usually suck at these quizzes

Yes..you do!  :P ;D  But to be fair and even....you sometimes arrive late....

J53. I'm Happy Just To Dance With You ~ The Beatles
M49. The Chicken Song ~ Spitting Image
N48 .Conquest Of Paradise ~ Vangelis (from the film 1492)
O46. Patches ~ Clarence Carter

Another great quiz Henk :)

J56 - Don't You Just Know It - Amazulu
J58 - Just A Shadow - Big Country
N49 - Hey You (Rocksteady Crew) - The Rocksteady Crew
047 - Dancing in the Moonlight - Toploader

Hi Henk - another great quiz ! 8)


J59  Never, Never Gonna Give You Up - Barry White

J63  Just One Look - Hollies

N51 We Belong to the Night - Ellen Foley - great voice  :P

N54 I Want You to Want Me - Cheap Trick - love this version!!!

M43 Horse with no name- America?
M46 Three Little Pigs- Green Jello



M47 Hungry Like a wolf- Duran Duran?\
M48 So Happy Together- The Turtles


Four correct answers, Q.  :)


so m has something to do with animals right?


That's right. Menagerie = Collection of wild animals in captivity, esp for a travelling circus, according to my dictionary.


For the record I know N46 and O56 too...

Henk should let me answer them since I usually suck at the quizzes  ;D


Well, I'd gladly let you...but that wouldn't be entirely fair to other participants.

This one is harder Henk. Glad I got here for some of the easier tunes (having said that...I'd better get them correct).


Harder...? ??? I thought it would be easier than the Instrumentals quiz! :-\\


...although I did struggle to find some more "J" songs.


M50   The Show Must Go On - Leo Sayer
N46    Wonderful World - Sam Cooke
N47    World - Bee Gees
N50    Lay Back In The Arms of Someone - Smokie


That's 3.5 correct answers, Peter. M50 = correct song, wrong artist. Doesn't fit the menagerie, does it? ;)


J53. I'm Happy Just To Dance With You ~ The Beatles
M49. The Chicken Song ~ Spitting Image
N48 .Conquest Of Paradise ~ Vangelis (from the film 1492)
O46. Patches ~ Clarence Carter


And that's 4 points for you too, Philip. :)


Another great quiz Henk :)


Thanks Jason. :)


J56 - Don't You Just Know It - Amazulu
J58 - Just A Shadow - Big Country
N49 - Hey You (Rocksteady Crew) - The Rocksteady Crew
047 - Dancing in the Moonlight - Toploader


You got the brackets mixed up on N49. :P

But that's okay, I do the same thing all the time! ;D :D
So you got four for four. 8)

Hi Henk - another great quiz ! 8)



Hi Amanda, and thank you. :)


J59  Never, Never Gonna Give You Up - Barry White


Right artist, wrong song. (I don't blame you - all his songs sound much alike)


J63  Just One Look - Hollies


100% correct.


N51 We Belong to the Night - Ellen Foley - great voice  :P


Holland seems to be about the only country that liked Ellen Foley, for whatever reason.


N54 I Want You to Want Me - Cheap Trick - love this version!!!


Wait...there are other versions? :o

Excellent stuff as usual, Henk...here's four from the top section!  :)

J51. 'Just A Little Bit Better' - Herman's Hermits
J59. 'I'm Gonna Love You Just A Little More Baby' - Barry White
J61. 'Just A Little Too Much' - Ricky Nelson
J64. 'Just A Feeling' - Bad Manners

Excellent stuff as usual, Henk...here's four from the top section!  :)

J51. 'Just A Little Bit Better' - Herman's Hermits
J59. 'I'm Gonna Love You Just A Little More Baby' - Barry White
J61. 'Just A Little Too Much' - Ricky Nelson
J64. 'Just A Feeling' - Bad Manners



No surprises there...all four are correct. But since Amanda already got the right artist for J59, I can only give you 3.5 points.

Well, maybe you know the artist for M50..? ???

n56 is "Question" by The Moody Blues

Ant

Hello Henk, More good stuff.

M44 is Fly On The Windscreen - Depeche Mode

N60 is Buffalo Stance - Nene Cherry

O49 is It Takes Two - I don't know if this is the Rob Base Version  :-\\

O51 is Call Me - The Mary Jane Girls

Well, maybe you know the artist for M50..? ???


If you insist...it's Three Dog Night (not a patch on Leo's version, it must be said!)

n56 is "Question" by The Moody Blues

Ant


Indeed it is, Jack. :)


Hello Henk, More good stuff.


Thanks Shannon. :)


M44 is Fly On The Windscreen - Depeche Mode

N60 is Buffalo Stance - Nene Cherry


Those two are correct.


O49 is It Takes Two - I don't know if this is the Rob Base Version  :-\\


I'm afraid it isn't, though the O49 song has been sampled quite a lot.


O51 is Call Me - The Mary Jane Girls


Right title, but wrong artist. :(



If you insist...it's Three Dog Night (not a patch on Leo's version, it must be said!)


I'm not insisting. Or am I..? :D Either way: you're correct.

That's right. Menagerie = Collection of wild animals in captivity, esp for a travelling circus, according to my dictionary.



I guess i was just thinking menagerie was simply a collection.....that makes the phrase Animal Menagerie rather redundant don't ya think....now if only I could remember where I heard it in the first place.....

N52. the artist is Barbra Streisand

o56.  Along came Mary?


That was a hard one

Hello Patty! :)


N52. the artist is Barbra Streisand


Yes it's her singing, but that's only half of it. She's actually doing a duet there.


o56.  Along came Mary?


That is the right song.


That was a hard one


It was? :-\\

Hi Amanda, and thank you. :)



You're welcome Henk :)



Right artist, wrong song. (I don't blame you - all his songs sound much alike)



Rats! Don't they just ! :o




Holland seems to be about the only country that liked Ellen Foley, for whatever reason.



That song was pretty popular here at the time. I remember she also did some stuff on the Bat Out Of Hell album too ! 8)



Wait...there are other versions? :o

I thought there was a studio version as well  ???



.....and for the half point I missed:

052  is  In Zaire


  :)

That song was pretty popular here at the time. I remember she also did some stuff on the Bat Out Of Hell album too ! 8)


Yes she did. In fact, it's her singing with Meat Loaf on "Paradise By The Dashboard Light" - although the video shows Karla DeVito.



I thought there was a studio version as well  ???


Most likely, but the live version is the only one I've ever heard.



.....and for the half point I missed:

052  is  In Zaire


   :)




That is correct. :)

Not much here I'm afraid

J55 sounded a bit like The Jam - but no title


N57 Diana Ross?

050 Michael Row The Boat Ashore

Not much here I'm afraid

J55 sounded a bit like The Jam - but no title


It does sound a lot like them, but it's not The Jam.  :(


N57 Diana Ross?


That's also incorrect, I'm afraid. It is a female singer, though, so you're on the right track.


050 Michael Row The Boat Ashore


This one's simply called "Michael", but I'll give you that. :)

It does sound a lot like them, but it's not The Jam.  :(

That's also incorrect, I'm afraid. It is a female singer, though, so you're on the right track.



I'll have to listen to them again then.

N56 Question - Moody Blues
O48 She's a Brickhouse - Commodores
O56 done by the Association
O57 Don't Call Us, We'll Call You - Sugarloaf

N56 Question - Moody Blues


That is correct, but Red Ant already came up with the same answer before you. I see I forgot to credit him. :-
O48 She's a Brickhouse - Commodores


No it isn't, I'm afraid. Commodores have had several Top 40 hits in Holland, so they're not the OHW I'm looking for.


O56 done by the Association
O57 Don't Call Us, We'll Call You - Sugarloaf


You get full credit for those. And since I forgot to credit Red Ant for N56, I'll give you half a point for that one too.

Okay... I've raised the limit to 7 (seven).

Okay... I've raised the limit to 7 (seven).


Good man!  :)

M42. 'The Cat Crept In' - Mud
N53. 'Tribute (Right On)' - Pasadenas
N57. 'One Day I'll Fly Away' - Randy Crawford

Good man!  :)

M42. 'The Cat Crept In' - Mud



I thought that sounded like Mud but I knew it wasn't Tiger Feet.  Not familiar with The Cat Crept In (was it into a crypt?), though I should know it by now, I know Henk has used it at least once before. 

Good man!  :)

M42. 'The Cat Crept In' - Mud
N53. 'Tribute (Right On)' - Pasadenas
N57. 'One Day I'll Fly Away' - Randy Crawford


Another three to add to your tally. :)


I thought that sounded like Mud but I knew it wasn't Tiger Feet. 


And yet the two sound very much alike.


Not familiar with The Cat Crept In (was it into a crypt?), though I should know it by now, I know Henk has used it at least once before. 


I did...?  ??? I don't remember. :-\\

I thought that sounded like Mud but I knew it wasn't Tiger Feet.

This was the follow-up to 'Tiger Feet' (not sure whether they were keeping to a feline theme or not) and although it was successful, it wasn't a patch on the first one!

Not familiar with The Cat Crept In (was it into a crypt?)


It probably crept into a crypt, crapped and crept out again!  ;)

Another 3 eh? 

O49 | It Takes Two - Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock
O54 | Hot Shot - Karen Young

and two half guesses to round out my third ...
N52 | Barbara's duet with Celine Dion - Tell Him
O51 | Skyy ?


O58 is driving me bonkers.  I know it, but I will be damned if I can remember what it is.  I await the answer so I can download it to my Zune 8)

And yet the two sound very much alike.




Exactly.  So I listened to it very carefully and determined that it wasn't Tiger Feet but I couldn't work out what it was.

O49 | It Takes Two - Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock
O54 | Hot Shot - Karen Young

and two half guesses to round out my third ...

You can have a go at one more, because O49 is incorrect. That answer had been tried before, and discarded.



O58 is driving me bonkers.  I know it, but I will be damned if I can remember what it is.  I await the answer so I can download it to my Zune 8)


It was hard finding a 16-second clipping of that song without giving away the title (or parts thereof). ;D
It's Italodisco, that's all I can tell you.

Okay... I've raised the limit to 7 (seven).


well they took mine already but thanks anyway!

I've given up on the songs...but I think I might have some artists :-\\

N58 Sounds like the artist is Eric Stewart (or 10cc)

J54 It's Pilot (no idea of the song)

J60 The artist is Phil Collins

You've got your three halves, Peter. :) N58 is 10CC, btw.

I've no idea if any of the remaining songs were hits in Australia. Probably not.

J60. That's Just The Way It Is ~ Phil Collins

O50. Michael ~ The Highwaymen

O52. In Zaire ~ Johnny Wakelin

J60. That's Just The Way It Is ~ Phil Collins


That's the right song. :)


O50. Michael ~ The Highwaymen



O52. In Zaire ~ Johnny Wakelin


And those are the right artists. Which means you've got another 1.5 point. 8)

That's the right song. :)

J 55 Treason - Teardrop Explodes

I'll give you that, though the title is incomplete. There's no "just" in treason, is there?

No, that's true.

but I only know it by that title.  :-\\

No, that's true.

Oh, never mind. I didn't know the song at all! ;)

What do you want me to do:

- increase the limit even further, or
- bring out the hints?

^ You could do both to give those who are out of answers a chance.  Or, you could increase the limit only first and let Paul get a huge lead :P lol

I know what you mean. Don't get me wrong - I've nothing against Paul, but I do realize others might get discouraged by him "winning" time and again. Sadly, there's not much I can do about it. You just have to try harder. :P

I like the challenge of trying to beat his scores

bring out the hints first.  Then, just maybe we can get up to the limit of seven.

Hints it is then. :) Not sure how helpful they'll prove to be, though. :-\\

J66 Right Said Fred - I noted this name as a possible at the beginning (in my notes at home I mean)

Is it really I'm Too Sexy?

J66 Right Said Fred - I noted this name as a possible at the beginning (in my notes at home I mean)


Right said Henk. ;)


Is it really I'm Too Sexy?


No, sorry. There's no "just" in the title, is there?

The song was a minor hit in US, but reached #3 in UK.

Right said Henk. ;)

I keep forgetting about that bit!

I can only think of two Right Said Fred songs.  And the other one doesn't have just in the title either.   :-\\



whilst I was typing this Philip replied with


Don't Talk Just Kiss (by Right Said Fred)


Oooo I'd forgotten that one!

J65 Paul Hardcastle?

Don't Talk Just Kiss (by Right Said Fred)


Is the right answer! :)


J65 Paul Hardcastle?


Also correct. :)

N58 something Shuffle

You're on the right track. Now think NYSE.

Wall Street

J54. Smile?

N58 something Shuffle



Wall Street


Wall Street Shuffle it is. That was a #10 hit in UK, FYI.


J54. Smile?


Close. I need one more word. A very important word in this quiz. ::)

Philip just beat you to it. :(

Correctamundo! 8)


Well, actually it's not, but that's because I gave you misleading information. Correct title is "Just A Smile". You get half a point anyway.

Hiya Henk

I got here very late on this quiz, I was on holiday for the last week or so in Spain.

The only one I know of those remaining is

M41 - Love Breaks The Wings Of A Butterfly On A Wheel - The Mission

O48 is 'Fire' by the Ohio Players

The sleeve for their album 'Climax' has to be one of the most frightening album covers I've ever seen :o

Indeed it is. The song, that is - don't know about the album cover.

J65 Paul Hardcastle?

J65. 19

J65. 19


That's not the song I'm looking for, Jonathan. :(

The hints didn't help much, did they?  ???

So what point is there in raising the limit? :-\\ I think I better call it a day.

J65. Just For Money

J65. Just For Money


That's it! :)

That's it! :)
Thanks!

I've raised the limit to 10 anyway. ;)

My last crack...

O49. 'Think (About It)' - Lyn Collins
O55. 'Don't Push It Don't Force It' - Leon Haywood

M 45 something about a Snake in the Grass?

Snake In The Grass is the right title. ;) Artists had hits with "Okay", "Bend It", "Save Me" and "Hold Tight" (amongst others).

A guess would be Change?  I know they had a song called 'Hold Tight' which I quite enjoy.

No, sorry. That'd be hundreds of miles off, and the wrong decade with that. "Snake in the grass" was a 1969 hit for these British singers.

Alrighty then... they also did "The Legend of Xanadu" and "Zabadak".


BTW: You're not gonna answer J57 and/or J62...?  ???

There's still a few left - including an international #1 hit from 2008/2009.

BTW: You're not gonna answer J57 and/or J62...?  ???


For some reason I thought J57 was already answered.  It's 'Just Dance' by Lady Gaga/Colby O'Donis

As for J62, it does sound familiar.  I probably know the artist, but the song isn't ringing any bells at the moment



058 is still driving me bonkers.  I know it, I do.  I used to listen to it all the time, but I can't remember what it is :(
I also recognize N55, but same as above.

I'm thinking of putting you out of your misery, and revealing the last answers. Sounds like a plan, eh?

I'm thinking of putting you out of your misery, and revealing the last answers. Sounds like a plan, eh?


I want to know what 058 is so bad LOL  I bet once it's revealed, I am gonna slap myself in the head and say "Damnit, I knew that.  Why couldn't I remember?" lol

So here's what you should've said:

J52. Artists are best known for their rehash of a 'fizzy' song. This song made little to no impact on charts. Maybe just as well they're leaving.
          Goodbye Is Just Another Word - The New Seekers

J62. Another one that at least one of you oughta know. It's Dutch.
          Just Be - DJ Tiësto

N55. Italian dance act with a song that made #7 in UK. Time to go forward, darling.
          Move On Baby - Cappella (2 wks, 1994)

N59. Not a hit in US, but it made #11 in UK. The singer (known simply by his 3-letter first name) hails from Cameroon, and the song is written
        and produced by Michel Sanchez (Deep Forest). I've no idea what it is about, though.
          Alane - Wes (8 wks, 1997)

O53. This tune only made #36 in US and did not make UK Top 40. It's about a demonic firearm.
        The American band (lead singer Cornelius Brown) also was a OHW in US.
          The Devil's Gun - CJ & Co(mpany) (#22, 1977)

O58. Italo-disco from 1984. No person in particular (calling a young woman), by recording device or tape for television.
          Somebody (Hey Girl) - Video (#6, 1984)

O59. The last chart entry ever for this singer (nicknamed Blue) who's been around since the mid-1950's. Not sure if you're invited to his club.
          Members Only - Bobby Bland (#22, 1989)

Cappella.  I knew I recognized N55. 
I should have known J62.  I do believe I have that on CD Single somewhere

As for 058, Man, I don't even recognize that title which is weird because I know I know that song.  Gotta go hot Limewire and get it :)

Be careful with Limewire.  If you've never used it, it can be a pain.  I remember a thread where a lot of us mentioned we had trouble with it, myself included.
