3RD UPDATE:

1. THE JAM > ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS > DAVID BOWIE
2. ROBBIE WILLIAMS > FREEDOM > GEORGE MICHAEL
3. JENNIFER RUSH > THE POWER OF LOVE > FRANKIE GOES TO HOLLYWOOD
4. EURYTHMICS > WHO'S THAT GIRL? > MADONNA
5. PRIMAL SCREAM > COME TOGETHER > THE BEATLES
6. _ O _ _ I _ _ E _ > ? > THE STRANGLERS
7. FAITHLESS > GOD IS A DJ > PINK
8. _ E _ _ _ L _ _ _ > ? > THE BEEGEES

Scoreboard:

HH12 > 9
Spoonz > 5
Al20000 > 4
Upstart > 3
Bridgy > 3
Colesman > 1
Iscalad > 1

Still 6 points to play for, so Spoonz, Al, Upstart and Bridgy can still win, but HH12 has a commanding lead. If it's a tie, then I'll decide who the winner is based on who I think has answered the most difficult answers (which will be the ones not yet answered).

 

[angelic upstart]

8) levellers New York mining disaster 1941

 

[Spoonz Red E]

6) Morrissey
Song - Dagenham Dave

I've been thrown off track by trying to stop thinking of 'Portishead' as the artist even though I would have had to spell it Portished.

4TH UPDATE:

1. THE JAM > ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS > DAVID BOWIE
2. ROBBIE WILLIAMS > FREEDOM > GEORGE MICHAEL
3. JENNIFER RUSH > THE POWER OF LOVE > FRANKIE GOES TO HOLLYWOOD
4. EURYTHMICS > WHO'S THAT GIRL? > MADONNA
5. PRIMAL SCREAM > COME TOGETHER > THE BEATLES
6. MORRISSEY > DAGENHAM DAVE > THE STRANGLERS
7. FAITHLESS > GOD IS A DJ > PINK
8. _ E _ _ _ L _ _ _ > ? > THE BEEGEES

Scoreboard:

HH12 > 9
Spoonz > 8
Al20000 > 4
Upstart > 3
Bridgy > 3
Colesman > 1
Iscalad > 1

Only 3 points left, so it's a head-to-head between Spoonz and HH12. This is as exciting as it gets. I'm soiling myself in anticipation.

 

[Alistair20000]

I probably ought to stay out of this but we numbers need to stick together and we have not had a question from Mr Dozen for a while. Spoonz is probably busy on preparing another quiz.

So with apologies to Spoonz

8. For Whom The Bell Tolls by Metallica

And that’s it, Al finishes it off and hands HH12 the baton. Well done HH12.

 

[iscalad]

Yay. A whole point in the last two quizzes
