10! I got 10!!
I did get 27 in geography so I probably won't be bottom of the class.

8/8 on lyrics - preparing to guess the rest.

How the **** do I know!
Educated guess....
Oh come on, you have to be shitting me!

Indeed!
I got 20/30
I am gutted.......................... Agnetha Faltskog was the ''darling'' of every boy in our school. If you liked them a little more weird looking you had a leaning to Kate Bush. And if you liked them slightly more ''tarty'' looking you would be lusting for Debbie Harry.
I thought I would have scored higher but as soon as they started asking about how their songs did in other countries I fell apart.

I liked Agnetha, but don't brush Debbie aside as just being the tarty option, she was bloody lovely, in more ways than one.
That's not rubbishing Debbie Harry............That's complimentary. Just a different type of look. I could have used the terminology ''sex appeal'' but Agnetha and Kate Bush had that as well. I was just trying to get across the fact that young teenage lads had differing personal tastes...........Nowt wrong with the terminology ''tarty'' I just couldn't think of another word to express that type of look.
My tastes don't seem to have changed to be honest.
I am not sure.............It referred to ''studio version'' Was it perhaps a ''live version'' that was on the album?
I was meaning that different lads in the same class around then had differing tastes
I know! I was thinking of your comment on the fat that they were teenage lads. I'm not a teenager anymore, but I still love Debbie.
Me too........we have got older together............Well not together obviously - Debbie Harry still has the sex appeal. Sadly, Agnetha wears Cardy's like my Grandmother used to wear now
To be fair, I'm not looking at the current Debbie, I'm still looking at the one I always looked at.
I'm surprised you can still see that photo of her you keep under the bed Trigaaar. Mine was tattered and torn and hardly visible by 1981

24/30 Better than I did on geography.
Lyrics were straightforward then they got into some more obscure things, like the jogging and which was first to chart in US, followed after getting the answer wrong by the revelation that the song they wanted 'charted' at some ridiculous low number that I didn't even know the chart went down to. Certainly the UK chart didn't go below 75 when I were a lad.

I think they are talking about the original studio albums released at the time. If your copy of Arrival is a CD issued from the mid 90's on it will have one or more extra tracks on it which weren't on the 70's vinyl or cassette releases, notably including the answer they are looking for, which back in the day could only be found as a single or on the Greatest Hits album.
