Just happened to be in a pub last night that was doing a quiz. One question was can you name this song and who sang it. The clue was " Long haired lover "

Long haired lover from Liverpool, Jimmy Osmond.

I feel this could be a joke?

No it was actually one of the music questions :roll:

All the music questions had a few words from a song and the players had to name the song / singers etc. We didn't take part but it was difficult to guess some of them and others easy. That's the only one I got right but then again I ain't that much into music. Mutters would have won the quiz. :laugh:

If you were alive in the seventies I don't know how you could fail to know the answer, it was played to death for months.

You are 100% correct because all the Osmond shit was everywhere back then despite plenty of good groups in the UK. It's a pub up in Durham and mainly full of University students not many got it correct obviously due to age. What's easy for one generation can be extremely difficult for another. I honestly expected the younguns to cheat but they got plenty wrong so I guess they play fair unlike us older folk. :roll:

It was the only answer I got right from 10 music questions. To be honest most of the answers I had never even heard of until last night. :roll:

No chance. I got about 4 or 5 questions correct out of everyone's questions. Its a tough quiz...very tough. Our lass got more than me. But then again if there was a quiz about Ska, Rocksteady and Reggae I'd do ok. :laugh: :cool:

Nar Mutters would get mastermind closed down once he was allowed to have his say. :laugh: Mind you he would be that entertaining he would probably get his own show from the ashes of mastermind once he launched into one of his famous rants. :laugh:
