@WillC my personal worsts are 3½ on @VanillaWithSprinkles food and drink round and 1½ on @Ace12345 General Knowledge round. If you go really niche on Music I’ll see if I can beat those! :rofl:

My point is give the subjects you don’t specialise in a go - you can’t be worse than me! :+1:t2:

Looking forward to the Music round and I’ll answer @MsSubExperimenter Grography when I have time to type and format properly :blush:

As loosely inspired by @WillC I’ve made a quick quiz that is on musicals…

I’ve provided a character and a song, just need to guess which musical it’s from.

Musicals this way
  1. Cosette, Master Of The House
  2. Stacee Jaxx, Every Rose Has It’s Thorn
  3. Glinda, Defying Gravity
  4. Meg Giry, Masquerade
  5. Rafiki, Hakuna Matata
  6. Mr Bumble, Where Is Love
  7. General Buttfuckingnaked (yes really!), Turn It Off (this is my favourite musical :rofl::heart:)
  8. Scaramouche, I Want To Break Free
  9. Little Inez, Good Morning Baltimore
  10. Roxie Hart, Cell Block Tango (Is it weird that I find this song sexy? :thinking:)

Bonus point if you can guess my favourite song from musical #7 :rofl:

@WillC I’ve only seen the film version and not for ages! (No pun intended :wink:) Love the music from it :heart_eyes:

If you’re not easily offended, number 7 The Book Of Mormon is hysterical, the first time I saw it I came out of the theatre in pain from laughing so much. The songs get stuck in your head too! Whenever I need a pick me up I put that soundtrack on because it never fails to make me giggle.

Oh! I love the stuff they do! Team America World Police is fantastic especially if you grew up on Thunderbirds like me! The stage show of Rock of Ages was good, a bit different to the film!

And also it’s really not weird to find number 10 sexy, i found a version on YouTube that i definitely find sexy too (they’re doing elaborate dances in high heels and leather) (also i love musicals, i have most of the ones you’ve put on there)

Also if you haven’t tried it you might find Avenue Q quite funny too if you liked the Book of Mormon. They’re are loads of hilarious musicals though, or serious ones with funny bits, it’s part of why i love the genre
