Madchester Pop Quiz

[1861robertelee]

piece of piss.

[MerkeCe]

i even guessed what the last 2 would be before they came on

[roonsa]

@MerkeCe No you didn't. Don't tell lies. You knew that 808 State "Pacific State" and A Guy Called Gerald "Voodoo Ray" would be tracks 9 + 10? You must be the spawn of Satan with such wizardry at your disposal.

[MerkeCe]

@roonsa when madchester springs to mind they are the big tunes, when they hadnt been mentioned by 8 i could have put any money on it

[NMWMN]

...Voodoo Ray... fuck... my eyes, what's happening to my eyes....

[NMWMN]

... loved 808 so much!!!

[bohsblur]

inspirals and charlatans the best here.

[JoyDivisionSouth]

@bohsblur ...yer ok

atmosphere is probably the best ever record mate...

[utrapzab]

@JoyDivisionSouth ill second that motion!

[WizLaudan73]

I agree with RangersFan303...i came up with the same answers. An easy quiz really.

[monkeymajikman]

joy division and the smiths shouldn't be there

[roonsa]

The point of this quiz (as was specified on the forum it was posted on) was to have 10 tracks which featured bands who were either part of the Madchester scene or came from the city of Manchester / had a link with Manchester. It wasn't supposed to be precise.

[sptol]

1 Hallelujah (Club Mix) Happy Mondays, 2 Joy Division Atmosphere, 3 The Smiths William It Was Really Nothing 4 Stone Roses This Is The One,5 James Born Of Frustration 6 Inspiral Carpets This Is How It Feels 7 The Charlatans The Only One I Know 8 Future Sound Of London Papa New Guinea 9 808 State Pacific State 10 A Guy Called Gerald Voodoo Ray

[djx31]

To easy

[roonsa]

Pity you didn't study spelling at school as well as you obviously studied popular music.

[29Amps]

How did you manage to get Stephen Hawking to do the voice over? Nice one!

[roonsa]

Professor Hawking is a big fan of the Madchester Rave On scene, didn't you know that? If you look closely at some pictures of him, you'll see he's wearing a "Cool As F**k" t-shirt under his jacket.

But what is it with Manchester that bothers you so much???

[crockettobaggio]

Frankly proffesor, you're a twat. And a very sick one at that. I wish people like you would hurry up and decay ie fuck off and die and stop littering youtube with your shite.

[ericsrightboot]

Charlatans from Northwich, not Manchester

Inspirals, Oldham, Not Manchester

[ChaOsAngEL1973]

well, how pedantic, everyone knows these facts, no-body is suggesting ALL these bands came from within the confines of the manchester city limits, but they are all labelled with the madchester scene and style.

i.e musical style not geographical location.

[ericsrightboot]

Try telling somebody from northwich or Oldham that, would they say i was pedantic? i think not. And i suggest not EVERYBODY knows these facts, now that was me being pedantic.
