Subject: Music Chart Challenge - COMPLETE
Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Jul 24 18
Can you hear that? It's the sound of music! NEW music! OLD music! Some sort of music!
We're going to celebrate music with this challenge, and while it may be a bit of a niche challenge, there are opportunities for classic music listeners to get in on the fun. There should be some international appeal despite the region specificity.
Anyways, check the date. Whatever day it is (where you are, not at the time of the challenge posting), look back at that date on the Billboard 200 Chart (here's a link:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Billboard_200_number-one_albums ). Whatever artists had number one albums on that date are eligible as topics for your quiz.
Let's say the date is July 15. That means that you can look back at July 15th on those charts-- any years-- and the artists associated with that day can be topics you use for your quiz. So for July 15, you're already looking at The Beatles, Donna Summer, Janet Jackson, the Spice Girls, Avril Lavigne, The Black Eyed Peas, and more! And it could change every week!
We need ten quizzes to complete the challenge, and they should all be about different bands/artists.
Completed Quizzes
The Fat of the Land - Kankurette
Candles in the Rain - Pollucci19

Also I haven't updated it because I haven't been here. Please don't worry. If I'm gone for a few days (though I noted it in a post or two-- not this one), it will get updated en masse as some point. Reply #43. Apr 30 19, 12:16 AM |

Yeah Kyle, I was not puzzled by that, it was about the link issue (which spanishliz clarified). Reply #44. Apr 30 19, 4:16 AM |

On this day (10 Sept) in 2016 one of my favourite albums of all time topped the charts, “Blonde” by Frank Ocean. I will make a template for a Frank Ocean quiz. Reply #46. Sep 09 19, 10:08 PM |

Green Day was top of the chart this week in 2016 so I'll start a quiz on them. Reply #47. Nov 03 19, 3:28 PM |

Today marks the 49th anniversary of Led Zeppelin's III album topping the Billboard charts... and, whilst there's a number of Zep quizzes on line, none have focussed on the album. I might just change that. Reply #48. Nov 07 19, 4:07 PM |

I just realised I offered to do Green Day a couple of weeks ago but I didn't set up a template. Will it still count if I start now? Reply #51. Nov 26 19, 11:58 AM |

Going back to 1971 for an album that is a huge favourite in my home: "Santana III". Reply #54. Nov 27 19, 5:41 AM |

Great! That's the ten we need, so this challenge is officially closed. Nice to move one of our oldest to-dos to the completed list. :) Reply #58. Dec 02 19, 11:35 AM |
