quizzes anyone?

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

I must be a really sad b*atard, coz when I submitted my answers, it said:-

You got 10 out of 10 questions correct.
That scores you a total of 100 points

maybe you like a more general music quiz from the 80's wave groups?

8/20
It seems to have been made for Belgium people! :wink:

But can anyone explain this:

This last question is pour les connaisseurs of 'the sisters of mercy'. I put down 4 songs by them, three of them are very much linked, name the outsider?
Your answer >> Red skies dissappear >> Incorrect!
The correct answer >> Lucretia

28% of players have answered correctly.

I thought the "outsider" would mean the less known, right?

I got 10/10 and 19/20, but only because I mispelt an answer.

Does this earn me a trainspotter award? Or am I just an anorak?

It's fun to see you guys enjoying this :grin:

Dead inside> With the outsider I mean the song that is not linked to the others in the list. As for less known, that is way too subjective. If I only have the "Echoes"-bootlegs in my collection, I will know Red Skies dissapears very well, won't I?

Hallucienate> what was the typo? Maybe I can include some typo's in the possible answers list? Anyhow, well done !!!

Sorry, there are no prices, we're all in it for the glory I'm afraid :grin:

I put an extra "i" horizon. I wouldn't worry to much about it.

Should have been 19 but I wasn't sure if I should count Red Skies Disappear as a Sisters' song.

I am a sad fanboy.

Given that it is actually another Sisters-quiz, somewhat camouflaged by other general wave-questions, I got 17/20... :grin: :grin: :grin:

BTW, another nice quizz, Wimmness...

IZZY.

10/10 and 20/20.
But question 10 and 17 are wrong...
The SSV album was titled Go Figure. SSV was the band name.
Adrenochrome doesn't include the lyrics "we are the sisters of mercy"

ouch...

I'll make the changes.

I know the lyrics don't say "we're the sisters of mercy", but he's singing it live, no?

I just checked the SSV stuff. And indeed, seems I got it wrong. SO I stand corrected :grin:
