Original...Heardle are very much mistaken if they think putting such garbage up is going to increase participation;
60's...who has ever heard of them not me;
alt 00's...might have got it playing by the rules there were clues in the "vocal", although totally unfamiliar with the song.

Original: Nope.
Sixties: Another no. Thought it was female. S with Neil, never heard of them.
Seventies: Two Seconds, as predicted.
Eighties: Again, two seconds.
Nineties: Recognised, unable to name singer or song.
00s: No chance. Horrible and would have turned it off after the first couple of seconds.
Other 00s. As above.

After a great evening chatting in a pub in Alvington last night with the mystery friend I mentioned yesterday I was hoping for a great follow up this morning. Sadly I was disappointed with:
Original, 80s, 90s, 00s 4 fails
70s 2 secs
60s 5 secs

Now you just need to identify my friend!! :-D

Spoiler: show
German

00's Heardle: Fail. I avoid this artist.

Close your ears, and eyes later on then Steve when I might just put up one of her tracks on the jukebox, which I enjoyed. :-D An absolutely tremendous live performance of her most powerful song! and in general I would say she has quite a catalogue of decent songs. Maybe not a great following with the FCF audience and obviously not yourself, but yes I was impressed with the drama and performance of her song IDSB from her "Reputation" Stadium Tour.

The ones I have seen have all been atrocious. She looks OK though. Better when she was younger without all the slap.

Complete failure across the board today but I take issue with the 70s! I have never heard that intro but I know the track they claim it to be very very well :shock:

Original Heardle: Just noise.
60's Heardle: Three seconds.
70's Heardle: Confused. Thought I recognised it but couldn't name it. Even I saw what it was I was surprised as it sounds nothing like the horrible racket I recall him singing.
80's Heardle: Not a chance.
90's Heardle: No.
00's Heardle: Another no.
Other 00's: No again

Agree there Mick. Had a listen and it is not the same although similar.

Fails
Original...Instantly ungettable and instantly forgettable;
80's...No...the 80's will never be fondly remembered for any of this bands tracks;
90's...Would have had a Chance, good song, but couldn't pick it out from the long intro.
00's...If you have never heard, or know anything of the artists then the heardle fail is inevitable.

Who is Ray Jackson?, (other than a mandolin player of course! :-D ) They describe it as MM by the original artist and it simply isn't!! How did you get it in 2 secs?
Please clarify as both Steve and I found it to be questionable!! :-D
