Did even better that yesterday! Now. I'm splitting hairs here but I would contend that the Adam and the Ants that released Zerox and Dog Eat Dog* were very different from the band that produced Antmusic and Stand and Deliver. The original Ants were advised by Malcolm McLaren to drop Adam and formed Bow Wow Wow. Adam recruited new Ants and went on to achieve a lot of success. A lot of Punks (teenage me included) were outraged by how "poppy" the new Ants were and vowed to flood their fan club with nasty letters about selling out and aiming their music at toddlers. Of course we never did any such thing. *Dog Eat Dog was re-recorded with the new Ants and became the new line-ups' first single.
@@arthurjarrett1604 Well, that's very cool, Arthur! ♥ Did/do you play with a band? I love music, too, but I haven't paid much attention to the actual artists since I was in my teens (Beatles, anyone?! LOL). I've heard of a lot of the songs in the quiz, but just don't know many of the band names.
@@jemma50 Some people just listen to the music and are happy with that, and that's okay. Anyone that plays an instrument tends to focus on the structure, melody, tempo etc, etc and so want to learn more about where the whole piece came from (if that makes sense). As for me, I jam a lot with far more accomplished musicians than me. As far as actual performances go, my proudest boast is playing one song in The (new) Cavern Club in Liverpool, made famous by The Beatles, with a (long defunct) band where the bassist was my nephew and the rhythm guitarist was my nieces now ex boyfriend. Their regular drummer was a professional so was much better than me. I've been involved with starts ups that got nowhere past a couple of practice gigs. I describe myself as an Enthusiastic Bedroom Drummer.
@@arthurjarrett1604 Nothing wrong with that, Arthur, as it seems like you play for the joy of it, not looking for fame. And that's the best reason to do anything, IMHO...for the joy of it. ♥♥♥
Can't believe I was scared of this. It was surprisingly kind to my old brain. 46/50
Fantastic score, Hornbeam! ♥
Great quiz Carol 😊
Hope there’ll be a part 3 😅
My score was so abysmal that I will take a page from Arthur's book and not include it. 😜 Thanks for the challenge, Carole. Happy Weekend. ♥♥♥
Quite difficult again, only 26/50 for us today. 😊
I missed 5 this time. [1] Lulu [2] Wizzard [3] Aztec Camera [4] Brotherhood of Man [5] All Saints
team G&A from Belgium again scored 40/50

It seems you are quite knowledgable about music, Arthur. Well done! ♥
@@jemma50 Yeah, I love music Jemma. I'm a drummer so have a keen interest.
