@shinynewapple2021

Were any of the songs chosen by more than one person ?
Yes. 2 songs picked twice. There's a no 2 next to the on the spreadsheet.

Can you all see the pics?

@Honeyroar

When you say for one night only, will the playlist do a Cinderella? Or will we be able to listen to it other days too?
No, it's for one night only (there is a reason why).

I'll be asking for the post to be deleted before I go to bed.

That's partly why I did the spreadsheet, so you can all remake it if you want to

MNerGoneRogue · 30/01/2021 22:48

And sorry if there are loads of ads. I had to make the playlist on YouTube

There are a lot of I guessed lyrics to be reposted at this rate !

MNerGoneRogue · 30/01/2021 23:08

@midgedude

The name you should call your child if they are to be a successful 80s musician is in the playlist
I've just looked, and I don't think any of the titles are a name?????

Billy???? I'm so confused!

midgedude · 30/01/2021 23:09

One of the questions is "what name..,."

midgedude · 30/01/2021 23:10

Billy yes

And which question?

And given that the name id bully not Lola or Tiffany , perhaps a few more lyrics become clear ?
