You cannot B serious

At risk of upsetting Noel, vastly outweighed by fear of upsetting Lisa, one more quiz which hopefully will keep you going for a while.

Theme is Rats B sides (very loosely in places!). Take the very first letter from each answer and rearrange all 12 to reveal the overall Rats related answer. As ever, good luck.

1. B side of She's So Modern
2. Instrumental (version of) track in double-pack Charmed Lives
3. Extended track on B side of 12" Drag Me Down
4. First name of Barefootin' composer
5. B side of Dave
6. B side of 7" Drag Me Down
7. Subtitle of the single for which Real Different is the B side
8. B side of Mary of the Fourth Form
9. B side of A Hold Of Me
10. B side of House on Fire
11. B side of I Don't Like Mondays
12. Label on which Rat Trap can be found as flip side to I Don't Like Mondays

Um, b*gger!  (well it begins with B) - I didn't expect you to do a tricky quiz!  I've only got 2 singles (Mondays and Banana Republic) - I was a very poor teenager so had to rely on getting the albums for Xmas presents cry I'll see if I can work it out by cheating .... well I guess it will keep me quiet for a while!  So thank you anyway - you're a very brave person smile

LAURH?GDNIO

so.....

DUN LOAGHAIRE

Not sure what the right answer to 6. was  I thought it was An Icicle In The Sun

very creative quiz that, must have spent all evening on it

I fear the reprise of the a-z of Rats/Geldof is imminent disbelief

Can't believe that got answered (correctly) so quickly. Very impressed, and equally gratified that there are others on this planet as sa...obsessed as I.
No 6 was as you suspected.

Answers were:-

1. Lying Again
2. A Storm Breaks
3. Up All Night
4. Robert Parker
5. Hard Times
6. An Icicle in the Sun
7. Guilty
8. Do the Rat
9. Never in a million Years
10. Europe Looked Ugly 
11. It's all the Rage
12. Old Gold

 Didn't actually take that long to prepare. Lisa set the challenge around 9.30 on another thread. Oh well, back to the drawing board.

Think I'll struggle on the Scratched Vinyl one without cheating though.

OK I failed miserably at that cry.gif Must get some copies of B Sides ...

I think you may need to set a more "junior" (juvenile?) quiz in future! But thanks for organising/playing smile.gif

Very clever of you (though a bit mean!) to lay the blame for it on me - it was only a suggestion in case you needed something to do smile.gif
