First topic message reminder :

Story of my life Tino (though not if you ask Mrs Daggles)

yeah but I don't have a nine figure bank account

Tino does...

I have a nine figure bank account as long as you exclude the sort code

Really annoyed this morning. Got up and showered, 10 minutes later I need a crap. Obviously I wipe thoroughly but it just feels like I've washed the car and then a bird has crapped on it.

F*ck you, Raf. There was some brilliant posts on here yesterday. There was the one where I compared Julius to John Forsyth and also the one where I pointed out that Ian Brown is odd because he has hair. The rest were rubbish though. I'll give you that.

I don't look like John Forsyth. That's just an urbane myth.

Do you look like Bruce Forsyth?

Not in this game.

We keep setting them up and Julius keeps hitting them out of the park.

That was Jim Bowen wasn't it?

It was Play Your Cards Right.
Don't make another mistake Union - you don't get anything for a pair.

First person to spot the link

1.)She calls my name, pulls my train, No-one else could heal my pain
2.)Paint the whole world blue, And stop your tears from stinging
3.)Now you must believe me, you never lose your dreams
4.)Before you point the finger, I hope the whole thing disappears
5.)She wrote my name on a red telephone box, when I got there she'd already rubbed it off

Scousers

There She Goes
Seven Seas
Walkaway
Ideal World
In the Morning

Nothing in this game for two in a bed, that's what I was thinking of.

Has anyone actually bothered to ask Floyd Maweather what he thinks of his boyfriend Justin? Would have thought he'd have tweeted his opinion on the hair, tattoos and bad boy "wigger" attitude by now

Fair enough Union.

That was very quick Jeff. It's a good thing everyone loves a smart-arse.

Trust me Jules, a geeky knowledge of music and an almost pathological desire to show it off at any given opportunity has proven quite the hit with the ladies in the past.

Well done Rowls. I'll have to raise the bar later

seanmichaels wrote:Well done Rowls. I'll have to raise the bar later

Just as long as you bring it down on the back of his noggin immediately

That's not very christian

Let us all pray for some raised bar.

or just a bar.....

Right then Mr Jeff "I know every lyric in the world and it helps me get laid" Rowley.

Songs/artists/link please

1. And my destination makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness still another mile

2. Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression

3. If I make you feel second best
Girl, I'm sorry I was blind

4. Listen to the words that you say
It's getting harder to stay
When I see you

5. If I'm laden at all
I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness

3 Is Always on My Mind, by Elvis, however as it is Jules setting the quiz it is probably the Pet Shop Boys

5 is He Ain't Heavy, by the Hollies.

3. Yes - the Pet Shop Boys
5. Yes, but a different artist

You need Pet Shop Boys & the other artist to get the link

2. Tears for fears - Mad world

Mad World, yes, but not by Tears for Fears.

I think the songs are covers which charted higher than the originals at no.1

seanmichaels wrote:I think the songs are covers which charted higher than the originals at no.1

Possibly true, but it's more specific than that. Not sure if any of the originals made No. 1 or not.

4.) Only you - Flying Pickets, charted higher than the Yazoo version

Was He Ain't Heavy done as a charity Hillsbrough single.

The link must be covers that went to number one. I know the Pet Shop Boys did and Mad World

Rowley wrote:Was He Ain't Heavy done as a charity Hillsbrough single.

And didn't Flying Pickets do Only You for charidee?

That's 4), not 1) but yes.

Yes, all cover versions which reached No 1 - plus one extra part to the link.

JuliusHMarx wrote:That's 4), not 1) but yes.

Christmas no.1's?

Correct - the other one being I have a dream by Westlife

Good game, good game.

I'm giving that round to Sean.
In the words of Bruce Forsyth "Up yours Jeff".

Odd one out...
 
1 Even though there may be times, it seems I'm far away - Julio H
2 Maniac, brainiac, winning the game, I'm the lyrical Jesse James - Daggles (Well, near enough)
3 I'll protect you from the hooded claw, keep the vampires from your door - A semen chisel
4 It's strong and it's sudden and it's cruel sometimes - Ricky D

4) power of love Huey lewis and the news

3.) Power of Love - FGTH

3. power of love Frankie Goes to Hollywood
1. power of love Jennifer Rush (at a guess)
2. don't know, but it's the odd one out

Ha Union. 1.) Celine Dion Power of Love.

I'm guessing odd one out is #2 as it has jungle beats?

seanmichaels wrote:I'm guessing odd one out is #2  as it has jungle beats?

Right one, wrong reason.

2) I got the power - Snap

2) I got the power - Snap

Snap!

Exactly...

Nice to see the lovely Mrs. Daggles referenced in the new OP.

She will be made up Jules...

I don't even need to bother with Christmas now.
