MOOPY FAMILY FORTUNES - ROUND 9 - RESULTS - 7PM TONIGHT! (23/07)

[octophone]

I'd like to say that I don't mind "Friday I'm In Love" but the other five songs are all far, far better.

 

[RJN]

I misjudged their most popular song in the uk

 

[Tisch]

Oh shitting hell

 

[BoysForSeles]

Oh shitting hell

If it’s any consolation you chose their best song.

 

[octophone]

SHIT OFF

I think you have a right to take the huff. Boys Don't Cry is a terrific song.

 

[Dark Carnival]

SATURDAAAAAAAAY… WAIT!

 

[Tisch]

I flitted between In Between Days and Lovecats and back again. Nice to see I needn't have bothered either way.

 

[octophone]

OK, last question.

 

[octophone]

I should say at this stage that I haven't worked out how to update the overall leaderboard so I'm going to have to do it in some ridiculous longhand fashion.

 

[Jacques]

Woo. Friday I'm In Love and Just Like Heaven (thanks to the Reese Witherspoon/Mark Ruffalo rom-com) were the two I knew, glad I made the right choice.

 

[Dark Carnival]

OK, last question.

Good coz I need to lie down

12 - A musical instrument without strings

14 - Drum(s) (Queen Of The Bay, Alla, ButterTart, Ill Advised, Ag, COB, Soldi, Raining On Me, Barnacle, Marilyn, Zen Giraffe, Rhythmbarbican, RJN, dmlaw)

7 - Trumpet (Tisch, Kate, Frozen, jyxz, Rita, David 5000, BoysForSeles)

4 - Saxophone (Ellie, Dark Carnival, Peekaboo, funky)

1 - Mouth Organ (.org)

Pianos have strings! Anyway, nice spread here but drum(s) led the whole way.

 

[ManicKangaroo]

Good coz I need to lie down

Nice thighs DC

 

[Jacques]

Was hoping for more Lizzo impact

 

[Tisch]

This whole round has been a massive

Not aimed at you Octy! The questions were great! But people's answers. SHEESH!

[Indie]

Technically most full drumkits will have strings too

 

[octophone]

Congratulations, @Marilyn - you are the winner of Round 9.

 

[octophone]

Technically most full drumkits will have strings too

They're more wires than strings but it doesn't matter.

 

[Marina Salty]

Am mid-table at last!

 

[Dark Carnival]

Well, bollocks. That's my first flunked question in a while.

[BoysForSeles]

Thanks @octophone good job, well done @Marilyn.

 

[octophone]

I will get the overall table updated for you shortly. Certainly in time for Round 10 beginning.

Thanks for playing, good luck in future rounds!

 

[Marina Salty]

Thank you octophone!

 

[Tisch]

Thank you @octophone you are officially my favourite poster with a name that begins with a vowel

 

[ManicKangaroo]

Great job @octophone thanks

I did much better than I expected

 

[D5K]

Thanks for running and great questions @octophone!

 

[Dark Carnival]

Thanks Octy

 

[dmlaw]

Well, that went VERY poorly, but, in the circumstances, it could have been a great deal worse.

Good hosting, octy.

 

[RJN]

Thanks @octophone !
I did just as well as expected!

 

[Berly]

Omg I completely missed this. Furious.

 

[Frozen]

Oooh I did much better than expected, thanks for hosting @octophone

 

[Raining on Me]

Have never heard of that song, but still I should have picked Kiss Kiss or Hero instead.

Wait, you picked a song you've never heard of for that answer?

Unless you mean you've never heard of Sound of The Underground, but have heard of Gareth Gates' Unchained Melody which makes even less sense
