For those of you who love the two best recreational things in life (music and....hum..what was the other?), here's a short quiz for you. I will give the answers on Tuesday evening, the 25th.
1. "Je T'Aime...Moi Non Plus" was a No.2 UK chart hit in 1969 for Jane Birkin and Serge Gainsbourg. Originally, it was written for a female actress, but she refused it on grounds of sexual innuendo. Name the actress who turned "Je T'Aime" down.
2. Which crooner had the first UK No. 1 LP in 1956, with "Songs For Swinging Lovers"?
3. Can you name the british-born reggae artist who, despite having much chart success with hits like "Big Six", "Y Viva Suspenders" and "Up With The Cock", also had every one of his records banned from airplay during the '70s?
4. Name the Who's 1967 Top 10 hit, which dealt with the subject of adolescent masturbation.
5. In "Heart of Glass" by Blondie, what term of innuendo forced the record to be re-recorded for radio airplay?
6. Name Chuck Berry's only UK No.1 hit, which the BBC refused to believe was about a toy bell?
7. Give the title of Jamaican artist Max Romeo's only UK chart hit in 1969, banned mainly on the strength of its title, although was really about a leaky roof in a Jamaican shanty town (stop singgering at the back there!)
8. Eric Prydz hit No.1 for the first and last time, in 2005, with "Call On Me". Sales were boosted mainly by a promotional video that went with it. What was the subject of this video?
9. "Shake Rattle and Roll" by Bill Haley and The Comets, was a UK chart hit in 1955. The original lyrics were cleaned of all innuendo, but one remained and went unnoticed, and can still be heard in the record. What was the line the censors forgot?
10. What Rolling Stones single was banned from airplay in the USA at the time of it's release, because the censors took objection to the line "while I'm trying to make some girl"?
